As with many industries, the fast growing forex industry also has plenty of predators, who look to take advantage of newcomers. The following story is shared by SaFWat, an investor who sought WikiFX’s help after being defrauded by TurboForex. He reported the illegal broker to warn other investors against it. Complainant: SaFWat (Cairo,Egypt) Illegal Broker: TurboForex Website: www.turboforex.com Account balance: USD 3,000 Withdrawal status: in process Customer service: unavailable Beware of TurboForex! I have been a customer of this forex broker since last May and have deposited US$2,000 in my account. At first, I received US$1,000 bonus from TurboForex WITHIN 24 HOURS! That’s pretty weird because I just started funding my account, but I thought I was lucky then (I must admit that I was a newbie and I entered a field that I knew little about). After around half a year, I decided to withdraw my money but only to find that my request was rejected. I was told by the customer service that CashU can only be used for deposits, not withdrawals. So I switched to another withdrawal option (they only support VISA or MasterCard), but AGAIN I was turned down! I kept on contacting the broker by e-mail and chat and sent the correct bank information every time but I got NO RESPONSE. I had made over 10 attempts to withdraw without any luck...the broker refused to pay out my money and might have escaped! Many investors may ask, “It looks like the broker’s offer can bring me big profits, but it may also be a way to trick me into making deposits, so how can I know whether my broker is a compliant one or not? And how should I avoid being scammed?” The first step doing a thorough research. That means checking a broker’s profile in detail, such as location of the broker's headquarter, how long it has been in business, its regulatory status and customer feedback. Make sure you don’t miss anything suspicious. If you feel you are being scammed, contact us for assistance to recover your money. You can also download “WikiFX App”, a broker inquiry app, at Google play or apple store. Edited December 2, 2019 by Anzo Lim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
