Traders reported to not receive withdrawals. Support is silent since the cashout request.

Trade24

“I have been through your website , and I haven’t seen the broker I work with listed in the website.
However I’d like to share with you my trading experience with a company named trade24, they’re are by far one of the top scammers, cause they are real scam artists professionals
When I first started trading with them their account manager took so many positions for me which caused a loss in my account a drawdown of about 50 % uue to his trades against the market trend , when I started taking my own trades he used to close them for me too even thou they were mostly in the right direction
however they compensated for me in a bonus ” a very manipulative way of freezing the traders account ” and refusing withdrawals for the trader and for every 1000 usd the trader apparently needs to trade an amount of 200 lots so for several thousands it will be quite impossible to get to that point .
I have went through several forums and apparently the issue isn’t only happening with me many people were scammed before and people are still getting scammed.
Apparently clients can’t reach them directly their employees disappear sometimes no one to talk to or call . And they were even trying to scam me further by asking me to send more money so that they can help me with losses
Note that I have managed to recover my original amount of balance but they have declined my with withdrawal request under the excuse that I have a bonus obligation to full fill
I wonder if there is any legal action that I can take against them , I suspect their address isn’t even real and so on.”

  3. Harold B. says:

    I was scammed by two binary options and investment companies, and i lost around $68,000 Dollars thinking that they were going to make me a profit. Looking back I did ignore some of the red flags but agreed to use bitcoins for them. I “traded” with two companies and both of them applied the same tactic: acquire the investment for a small fee, then encourage me to upgrade, then when ready to withdraw there was a fee, then i was also charged with a Tax Fee and they threaten me that if i did not pay that tax fee then they will send a report to the IRS. The other company told me that i needed to pay a finalization fee to cash my “earnings” because it is a request from the World Bank and the International Monetary Funds to process a 12 digit code in order to receive the payment. I do have emails, conversations and so forth in order to investigate a case and also to persecute those individuals to stop doing this to others.

  4. Oladipo Julius Babatunde says:

    Ola,
    I joined bitforextrading.net sometime this year when running promotion, at the end of the promotion when am to make withdrawal, I was given charges of 1000 dollars to settle before making withdrawal. This I term a scam as this was not part of the deal. Pls I want to confirm authenticity of this broker, while doing that I want traders to be aware of the broker.

  5. Teedekey says:

    I would like to repot Ecrypto chains. I invest with them promised to return my funds in 40 hrs, firsf they return mt money after that they just promised me to refund me in 5 hrs as from last month until now. Just be careful

  6. zulkamal says:

    Avatrade.com that you recommended here is actually one of those scam brokers who swindle my account down to zero balance by use of their EA inside my account. They are cooperating with their affialiate, Smartalgotrade.com, to do the swindling act. Stay away from them for those traders who havent or plan to register with them

  7. Maureen Barker says:

    Hi I opened an account with UFTGROUP and had a broker called Morgan Smith. They take your money and when you want to withdraw they tie your money up with forex trades so your platform is low with funds. I made a big mistake by saying I would do my own trades so I changed my passwords and went to withdraw and next day my account had been hacked and by placing all these trades with thousands of dollars commissions attached to each one my platform drropped to zero in 24 hours so I have lost everything as my account is in minus $12000. Stay away from this group.

  8. NP says:

    NP
    I invested $300 in to cryptohubfx.com. During the proces of trading I got a mail that they wanted 1000$ to get bigger returns and release my account. I did because I trusted my trader. After they payment and on the withdraw day they wanted a upfront payment before releasing my profit. It was 10% of $17.000. I cut it off because what’s next?

    • CP says:

      I’m in the same situation right now, I did invested $300 they gave me $160 for some reason. But now they’re asking me to pay $4,820 for the VIP section what not.
      But my trader is very nice thou and says his been to trading for 6yrs. Like completely in between right now.

    I have been trading with Instaforex.Now that i want to withdraw my money they say i have to pass some verification levels.The first they asked me for my passport.And for two months they have been rejecting my scan without a reason. You do not need to be a specialist to make a good scan.Everyone can see a scan at 1200 dpi but to them its not good enough.So they obviously don’t want to give me my money back

    I couldn’t figure out for some time, who is the owner of the ForexGrand forex company. Finally I figured out his name is Yordan Mijatovych, he is Bulgarian and lives in Malta. The address in Malta is Ghawdex 70-42 Triq It-Torri Tingi.
    It took me much time to register and the support teams is slow to answer.

  12. Juan Lewinnek says:

    WARNING: KAYAFX IS ONE OF THE WORSEST SCAMS!
    I opened an account with this scammer with euro 100. Due to different reasosns I could not trade and when I asked for my money back they did not answer to me. I pplied 2 times with no result. At the third time I got an email, that my money could nto be paid becaise 1) the amount I would have available was under euro 100 and 2) this amount would be lower than the minimum to be withdrawn. I checked my account and I was amazed to see fozens of trades, all were losers, none of them was done by me. And all were “SELL” trades. This means, this broker manipulates the accounts to cause the loss of the money and so they don´t have to pay anything. In this moment I have lost more than 50% only remain euro 41 in my account. I noticed that the trades began after me doing the withdrawal application.
    Therefore I am warning all: hands off of KAYAFX: is one of the worst scammers!

  13. Øyvind Hoff says:

    Tony Bruner in 245Markets is one of the worst swindlers in the market. Do not send any Money to this scam/swindler. He is friendly when he asks for Money. Withdrawal never happens.

  15. Miyoko Goto says:

    Forex Hacked 2.6 and Forex Hacked Pro 1.2 are very crude EA robots and they can delete all the deposit to zero within a week. I bought Forex Hacked 2.6 on January 19th, 2018 and Forex Hacked Pro 1.2 on January 23rd. Forex Hacked was working fine for few days but it suddenly crashed my account on January 24th. There was this 14 digits of earnings listed like this way xxxxxxx.xxxxxxx and the numbers were changing even after I disactivted the EA manually! So, there was actual hacking of the EA happened to me on easyMarkets with InterServer VPS system!

    Also, Forex Hacked Pro 1.2 was much worse. It only made 0.01 to 0.04 lot trading (10-40€) and set the TP for less than 2€ all the time!!!!! The EA does not set a SL and it only made the winning cut down at 0.00 to 2.00€ level and the loss could be over -50€. Why people need to buy this Forex Hacked Pro for over 300€ value? I could make a trading better with just getting the free signal or paying 20€ for OANDA or something comes with the MT4 or even just check the News for the trading. IronFX did not crash since I registered in last November but easyMarkets did 4 times!!! 2 times within a month and 2 times within a week!!! And Forex Hacked 2.6 caused the 4th loss of the deposit within a week!!! Any sign of the scam? I believe something went wrong with either Forex Hacked or easyMarkets!

    So, I made the blog site for sharing the information. Can anyone help me getting a
    lawyer to get the deposit money back? I think Forex Hacked program was not really functioning on the VPS.

  18. Emmanuel says:

    I had already started trading with MT4invest.com before i came across a site that listed them as a scam. True to the warning to avoid them, the chicken has come home to roost for me as all my attempts to withdraw parts or all of my balance have failed and they have a professional scammer called Percy Martins (not even sure that’s his real name) that will keep calling you and giving you reasons why you can’t get your money. It’s a different reason every single time.

    He even opened some trades for me that almost killed my account but i was able to do some trades that stabilized the account and made some profits but it has been impossible to make any withdrawals for almost one year now that I’ve been trading on their platform.

    Basically, I’m confirming that mt4invest.com is a scam. Please warn others to avoid them.

    SCAMMED BY FOREX TRADING CENTRAL I FXUnit I MARKETSITRADE I BeCFD

    Guys, I am reporting this case so that no one falls into their trap and just before proceeding legally against the company who is trying to hold my money!

    Last month, I was approached by a company named (Forex Trading Central) who offered me to open an account with them. I agreed and was directed to one of their platforms (marketsitrade.com) where I did the deposit and immediately opened a position under the guidance of a nice gentleman who asked me to schedule a “take profit” command.
    Next day I received an email from them asking me to validate my account. Documents were submitted from my side and an email confirmation followed from their support team.
    On the same day, a new account manager called me mentioning that his name is Oliver Thompson. he gave me a lengthy presentation explaining that i should follow his trading strategy and that i should ignore the recommendations of his “junior” colleague who assisted me opening the account and do my first trade. it was agreed then with Oliver Thompson that i will consider his recommended strategy after Sept. 10th right after i get back from my vacation.

    I was watching the market on google while i was away and the price of the instrument i traded was up by 21.5% – way above the “take profit” position that i had scheduled. I assumed that my position was automatically closed by then.

    returning from my vacation, I logged into my account (two days back) to find that the position was still open and my balance is down by almost 60% with all the functions on the platform being disabled. Immediately contacted Oliver Thompson and his answer to me was “the platform is not good and can barely trade Crypto Currencies”. he asked me to open a new account on their “state-of -the-art” platform called (BeCFD). I rejected his request asked him to reimburse my investment and informed him that i will consider BeCFD only when the money is back in my account. Since then Mr. Thompson failed to provide me a straight answer on whether he will send back my money or not. my last email to him was this morning informing him that I will pursue my rights to collect my money. of course he ignored my email and here is my first act against them.

    • Paul Hough says:

      I would like to add that a company with the website URL “www.becfd.com”, which may or may not be the same company, arbitrarily and with no explanation simply removed 30% of my funds from my account when I requested my account to be closed and my funds returned.

  21. anumalik says:

  24. José says:

    Hi:
    I have a issue with IronFx about the withdrawal, the principal issue is
    that in the articule 17.7 about the time for withdrawal indicate that it
    will be on Web Site but it doesn’t appear.
    Their Portal Complain doesn’t asign a number, and they don’t answer my
    email.

  25. Dean says:

    245markets.com. Beware of this broker. Account Manager – Tony Byner and James Bosko are names to beware of. They use 245markets.com website as a store front to allow deposits, however withdrawals are impossible. Cold called for Snapchat IPO, invested $1000.00USD and I have tried numerous attempts to complete a withdrawal. Every time I receive a call from account manager who then tries to up sell and ask for more money. They say they are located in UK, however they use IVPN to place calls and call display shows +4488582259, however calls could be from anywhere in the world. Don’t be caught by this scam.

    • Liam says:

      Dean, is that Tony Bryner(rather than Byner) you’re talking about? A right scam artist, so he is. He’s also linked with Marketsbroker who are yet another scam broker. Requested a withdrawal from them and either he or some lowlife in the company decided to place 4 unauthorised trades on my account which wiped it out.

    • Øyvind Hoff says:

      Tony Bryner in 245Markets is one of the worst swindlers in the market. Do not send any Money to this scam/swindler. He is friendly when he asks for money. Withdrawal never happens.
      I had lots of money on my account. suddenly he startet a 5 point sell with Bitcoin/USD and others too. He said that Bitcoin/USD will increase to 18000 USD and traded a sell instead. This was done on purpose and I lost $500000 pluss.
      He never answers my questions and we need to stop this man.

    tixfx is a very big scam

    • knut says:

      Hello abram :) im just a random trader and can relate to your story. thank you for sharing your story. You`ve been in contact with Megan Lagos? this is her contact skype info:megan.lagos2
      tixfx is that related to markets 245? yes its very sad to witness all the liers and scammers out there. be cautious and evaluate before open any account with some random broker. there are thousands to choose from.

      • Roman says:

        Het i agree here as well. First a girl called me with the name of Gulia Ferano and gave her skype. She told me to deposit and at the first i didnt trust them, after she was like we have a professional guy who will help you to get 500$ a week if you deposit 250$, The name of the guy is Oliver Badger. I deposited becasuse i trusted on this broker. After i deposited, Oliver Badger called me and told me to deposit 250$ more and i was not ok with that and he started promising me that if i do so than i can get 1000$ profit a wekk. I did the withdraw of 500$ total and the guy started to say that we have a professional girl whose name is Megan Lagos with the skype name megan.lagos2, she contacts me and says again to deposit this this and you will get 5000$ profit in a week with the 101% guarantee and i thought that it was true and i had a total deposition of 1000$, i had total of 2054 dollar but when i try to withdraw they always cancelled. The reason was the credit and the margin level is low. They says always that and now i have only 440$ on the ForexGrand and it is still declining. I asked to Megan how can it be possible to go from 2054 dollar to 440dollar in 10 hours? she was like bitcoin increased and all. Now she fights with scream at me even tho she loosed the amount.. oops i lost like 1000$ and i would recommened you guys now to go and trust this forexgrand because it is a complete scam. They will eat all of your money. You are not getting anything back on this trust me

  33. Jonathan Mejellano says:

    I lost 250$, it’s not a big amount for some but I am here to warn people so that they won’t make the same mistake. I saw their link first time on Facebook. There’s this short presentation done by two people (man & woman) as they’re about to board a private plane. Well, in short I got carried away with this presentation that I signed up. The broker’s name is: SKYLINE MARKETS. Later on, I decided to withdraw because what I saw in the presentation was way too far different. They replied (surely it’s a robot) that I need to submit “Compliance Department” to be able to get my 250$ back. I communicated as well through online chat and was told to wait 48 hours and etc. It’s been more than 5 days now and I nothing happened. 250$ dollars may be small for others, but this amount is already a big amount for me since I’m only working in a rank and file job. This amount that I lost can already fed me for 1 full month. I want the people to know that I got scammed and the name of the broker is SKYLINE MARKETS. This fake brokers should be wiped-out online or a massive “info” dissemination should be made to prevent people from further being scammed. Please help me spread it. They are now posting on Facebook walls and I’m sure if no forewarned is being made, more people will fall prey and lost their hard earned money. Once more, please take note, the name of the broker is SKYLINE MARKETS! Thank you very much!

  34. Stan Kimer says:

    How about Daily-Trades? My business partner in Belarus had been requesting her funds since May and she keeps getting the runaround. First they were non-responsive and once I started assisting her using my American force and nastiness, in mid August, they started promising the funds would get to her the next week. Now they have been doing this “it’s coming in 2-3 days” for the past 6 weeks with one lame excuse after another and continuing to ask her for more and more documentation. What can she do? Why don’t governments go after and shut down these scams.

  35. William Ellis says:

    The company I was trading with was taken over by another company named Ridge Capital Markets supposedly trading from an office in Zurich , Switzerland. I got my deposits returned from the 1st company but not the profits which were transferred to the takeover company. I started with the new company November 2015 to try and get my profits out and they convinced me that a financial analyst (Joe Davis) would speak to me about investing it with them in a managed account. I agreed to try it. Over the next four months I invested US$80,000 in regular deposits and built my balance to about US$113,000 which was a good profit.
    During that period I only had 2 lost trades.
    They then started to trade large money on a single trade of US$30,000 which lost. I questioned them about the size of this trade as I was not happy with their risk management and became suspicious. Over many weeks I asked for withdrawals for the first time and they became very difficult and did not honour any withdrawal and tried to convinced me with a measly $5000 withdrawal.
    I then asked them to stop trading my account which they didn’t. I then asked them to close account and return my money which they didn,t do.
    I manually stopped their trades on the Metaquotes MT4 trading platform which was quite a task. I kept asking to close the account without success.
    They then proceeded to use trading software from their server which I could not stop and traded me down to nothing within 2 days. I spent money investigating them without success. Metaquotes would not help in tracing them. Their Bank in Sofia, Bulgaria would not help. The Swiss authorities would not help as I was told by my investigator. They are still trading through their website http://www.RDCM.com (Ridge Capital Markets) and the company Ridge Group Limited has an address in the Dominican Republic. They have still got a trading office address in Zurich, Switzerland and are still trading so stay clear of them if you value your money.

    I i am misled by pwrtrade.com and have lost 47000 euro.

  37. Greg Simcock - Author J. K. Rawling says:

    Being the originator of the Binary Option concept I want to reveal to all traders that the way the trading system has been made to work, since my artwork for my inventions got thieved years ago, is so that the money a person invests goes into the company bank and its directors pockets, never to be deposited into one’s own bank account. If you can get money transferred from a trading platform into your personal account then that is amazing. What is more amazing is if you can repeat that process many times after the first. Why that doesn’t happen is because of how the trading software has been designed to work. The many little wins one gets is designed to generate the greedy element in a trader so that the next investment is bigger for more financial gain but the result is often a loss and that takes a lot of trading to recover from. In the mean time the brokers go home with fat fists of money gained from their practice. That is why they are called brokers! My loss to Broker Capital Ltd. is $85,000. USD after the company notified me it was ready to be transferred back. It simply closed its doors and shut down their website. My total loss to the binary trading scam system is $400,000 AUD. The industry is one melting pot of many brokers that systematically do their little bit to suck your funds out of your bank accounts. When a trader is dissatisfied with one trading platform there are many others ready to continue the run out of the traders funds by the use of one or another scam technique they use to gain someone’s confidence and that is when a person is most vulnerable to the scamming brokers who present what is said to be a good opportunity to make some money quickly but ends up being bad advice. Be aware of the scamming methods used by brokers.

  38. Elhamy Elnashar says:

    I surprised that KSFTRADE broker is not included in your scammer list , they are pioneers in frauds and scams .
    when my balance with them reached 118000$ , the account manager vanished and all other company staff , the same happened with 10 persons of my friends , the only person who contacts traders is the account manager with skype name .. No. support or any other way of commutation with them even if you dont have any problem , they call you only to deposit money then no answer> they just collect money and vanish.
    Please take a look at their reviews and victims on the internet

    Hi. I have been investing with this company since February this year. When i began with them they looked so Genuine and would always update me with everything going on with my account. But for the past two weeks they have not been communicating, their website in no longer available, my account has not changed their phone numbers are no longer working. I am worried and i don’t know what to do. What bothers me is i referred 4 other people to invest there and they too are facing the same problem as i am. How can these be brought to book and on legal grounds how can we pin them down. If anyone can help please it will be greatly appreciated.

      I spoke to lawyers in the UK. They have not assets in the company. Thus one cannot sue them. You can list your claims with the houseofcompanies in the UK. This will increase the length of time they have before they can file for bankruptcy. Other then that i am not sure what to do.

      Globus was registered with the FSB so they enity cannot help us. I am actually wondering if it is worth visiting them in the UK however I do not think it would help much/

    Hi

    I opened out an account with GlobusCapital Limited 3 months ago. They are based in the UK,Level 3, 207 Regent Street LONDON W1B 3HH UNITED KINGDOM.

    My mother opened an account with them, and put her pension money in about 3 weeks ago.

    I requested that globus close our account and give the money back after I found out they were cheating people. They have since stopped all communications and their website is not working as well.

    They are now operating under the website (used to be *sic) fb-limited.com/en.

    I dealt with Micheal Brooks ( not sure if that is his real name) .

    If anyone has been through this, is there anyway one can get ones money back? If you have gotten your money back, how did you do it?

    There are 3 other people who have been cheated out of there money that I know of.

    Thanks

    Hi everyone, My account number is 2050219, I am struggling with Avafx since longtime but my money is stuck in the platform hence with them. AMAR is my account manager and he is only interested in all your deposits to the account.

    1. Poor customer support
    2. No technical analysis or guidance provided
    3. Delays in deposit transfer to account which creates panic and you have to hedge at higher levels.
    4. Although they promise you trade recommendations, they leave you to trade on your own and incur losses. 5. What is concerning regarding trading is , AVA practice dealing desk what means they are dealing against you (their client, make money on your back and the only goal is that you feed them more with your money.

    Please save your hard-earned money and don’t trade with avafx.

    Yes, I’m another victim of Globus Capital. Started investing with them after a smooth talking broker called me out of nowhere. He promised returns of between 10 -20 % per month. I deposited a small amount initially just to “try” them out – and indeed the returns were as good as promised. I was also told I could withdraw the profits anytime – which I was able to a few times – which convinced me they were a genuine company. This led me to invest even more. But around late July – August this year, I noticed the trading suddenly stopped. When I emailed to query about this, I got no response. I then decided to withdraw the profits as well as my capital. But to this day, I have yet to receive a reply from them despite repeated calls and emails. So this is to warn potential investors to stay away from Globus Capital – a real scam company !

      Same here from South africa but what bothers me is the site is still active and they still take deposits but do not pay out any money

        They have now taken down the website and are in the process of dissolving the company (GCAL). They have registered a new company and a new website (used to be *sic) fb-limited.com

    Broker Name : CMS Trader
    Date 28/8/2015
    Opened an account with them $9000 . I wanted to close the account and get my money back. Total amount in the account $ 9221.15 . For the last 2 months unable to get my money back. Since I threatened them with legal action, all communication lost. Only communication is if I ring land line somebody answer but no solution to my problem. I can still log into my account but had not traded since I decided to get my money back. No explanation or reasonable reasons given to me for the delay

    • Derrick says:

      Hi Mr. Atif Mahdi,
      You get your money from CMS Trader? I am also on of the victims.

    • Patrick says:

      I am also one of the victim of this scam CMStrader.

      Do not open an account with them, you will never get your money back, they are not FPA approved. Many governments have banned this organization.

      They will initially show you very nice trades with profit, and then the moment you ask for Withdrawal they will deliberately do some wrong trade with huge volume to wipe your account off in a no time.

      Please share your number I have their all call recorded with me I will send over.

      Thanks,
      Victim of this scam company

    Big Option Binary Options and Forex Trader. Be aware, like most scam traders they too offer a small deposit to open your account. I made a couple of successful trades and then I started getting calls to invest a further £2000 and have an account manager trade my account. This caused me to doubt their credibility. Their site is adorned with every available badge to give them credibility, and their smooth talking presentations will only end in tears when they rob you in broad daylight of every penny. I have tried to get my £300 deposit back after having opened my account in April 2015. On 1st July 2015 I had a call from an account manager, Steven Gold who said he could not understand why I would want to close a profitable account. He agreed to set the auto robot and then on its result reconsider my decision. On the same day I spoke to account manager Steven Gold the auto robot that he set made 15 trades losing 14 and winning 1, leaving just £4 in my account. The robot executed 8 trades on eight different instruments that closed at 1700hrs and 7 trades on seven different instruments at 1900hrs. From my own experience with auto robots, they certainly will not do that, so there was most definitely some human intervention or the robot that was set had only one result programmed and that was to deplete my account. Despite numerous requests to have someone resolve this situation I have had little or no contact from them. They claim a deep investigation is taking place but nothing is happening.

    Beware, Big Option is a SCAM Trader.

    I am Msobomvu Marala and have an account with Globus Capital Limited(GCL) They have helped me raise my capital in forex trading and I have even organised people to join the broker. Initially I made a small withrawal which they afforded but now whenever I or any of my friends I helped to join, want to make a withdrawal they dont give the money.
    Its really frustrating and I think we have been duped, it must be a scam.
    Please help us get back our money and invest in reliable brokers.
    In anticipation of the positive gesture regarding the above, I thank you in advance

    Kind regards

    DailyTrades broker used to call and say we will trade for you because if you loose we loose as well, their name Micheal Sharp and Alex Miller. I deposited $1000 and they wiped off my account. Now they are no where to be found.

  51. JP says:

    I have joined GrandCaiptal for few days, and I have made over 150%. Now they have cut my profit and simply giving a reason that I traded in a no quote period. Then I asked them why i can make order in MT4! Then they just hung up the live chat.
