Forex Scams

What it is

Forex scams take advantage of the complexity of foreign exchange trading. Scammers claim they can help you “double your money,” provide “secret strategies,” or offer access to a special trading program that guarantees high profits. They may impersonate licensed firms or clone the branding of legitimate providers. Victims are often shown fake performance results or pressured into sending increasingly larger sums. Once enough funds are collected, the scammers stop communicating, block access to the platform, or demand additional payments before withdrawals can be processed.

Warning Signs and Red Flags
“Guaranteed” or risk free profits.
Aggressive sales pressure; urgency.
“Withdrawal fees” before you can access gains.
Requests to send money abroad or via crypto.
No MFSA licence; changing “advisors”.
What to do now
Verify licences on the MFSA Register[S.
Treat guarantees as a red flag.
Get independent advice before investing.
