Scam

TRADE.COM

STOLE USD 80K from us! Account Manager Thomas De Mello only talks crap and fake promises. Now they want us to sign a full and final settlement to wash their hands off from any complaints / fraud. The number 1 tactic used by Trade.com account managers is that they approach you in your language to build false trust, and the moment they identify you as a target, they move in aggressively. In my case, he spoke Italian because my husband is Italian, called him “brother,” and said “ti voglio bene / I love you” Once the hook is set, the real scam begins. Constant pressure and demands to deposit more money under the pretense of “recovering funds” or “unfreezing your account.” Its a deliberate, systematic scheme designed to exploit trust and drain you financially. The level of deception and manipulation is shocking!

Scam

BITPANIA

I started investing without any trading experience, and thanks to my effort and dedication, I learned. With guidance from Bitpania, we managed to accumulate around $2,460 USD, which they wouldn't let me withdraw because I had to pay a tax. I paid it, and now I have $10,294 USD, but they won't let me withdraw it. No one is responding to me. I paid the taxes they told me to, and now they're saying that because of what was happening in the Strait of Hormuz, I couldn't withdraw. They told me to keep trading and suggested I buy gold and oil, which cost me $1,920 USD. They called me saying that if I deposited that amount, they would use a program to reverse the loss, but I refused. I was able to recover more than I lost, and now no one is responding to me. CAN ANYONE HELP ME? At least Fernanda Sandoval, my advisor at BITPANIA, can help me recover my investment.

Scam

SPOVA

I lost tens of thousands of dollars to Spova. They are professional predators, not brokers. The Bait: I started with $250. To build my trust, they allowed me to withdraw twice: $100 the first time and $150 the second. This was a psychological trick to make me deposit massive amounts of my life savings. The Trap: Once my capital was in, I requested a $500 withdrawal. Everything changed. They immediately sabotaged my account with "bad signals." Within 24 hours, they burned my balance from thousands of USD down to $0. The Deception: They rejected my withdrawal, claiming "insufficient funds" despite my large balance at the time of request. Now they have vanished and blocked me on Telegram. Crucial Red Flags: They give small wins to lure you in. They manipulate trades to wipe your account if you try to withdraw. Use only Telegram and masked numbers. Conclusion: Spova is a TOTAL SCAM. Stay away to protect your money and family!

Scam

naqdi

I submitted a withdrawal request of $3,000 in October, but I still have not received my funds. My experience with Naqdi has been very disappointing. Although the broker claims to operate under FSCA License No. 51598 and UAE CMA/SCA License No. 20200000150, the withdrawal process has not been handled professionally, and support responses have been unsatisfactory. I strongly advise traders to be cautious and conduct proper research before dealing with this broker.

Scam

Hantec Bullion Limited

I. Three Years of Blood and Tears: 2023-2026, $5 Million Vanished In 2023, I opened an account on the Hantec Bullion Limited platform. Initially, the deposit process was smooth, and customer service responded promptly. From 2023 to 2026, I devoted myself entirely to trading, enduring countless sleepless nights, only to suffer continuous losses due to the platform's malicious slippage, widening of spreads, and manipulation of market conditions. Over those three years, my two accounts accumulated losses of over $5 million on the Henda platform. This money represented half my life savings and my family's entire hope. To cover the losses, I mortgaged my house and borrowed money from all sides, my life plummeted, my family relationships were on the verge of collapse, and I lived in constant pain and despair. II. A Brief Glimmer of Hope: Market Recovery in 2026, $1 Million Profit Awaiting Recovery In 2026, the market turned around. Leveraging my years of trading experience and accurate market judgment, I finally reversed the losses, achieving a profit of over $1 million in my account. Looking at the profits in my account, I thought I finally saw hope, that I could finally recover some of my losses, pay off my debts, and return to a normal life. I submitted a withdrawal request immediately, eagerly anticipating the funds arriving, but little did I know that this was just the beginning of my nightmare—Hantec Bullion Limited only allows losses, not profits! III. Showing its fangs: Refusing withdrawals after profits, making all sorts of excuses, and seizing investors' hard-earned money. After submitting the withdrawal request, the funds were delayed. I contacted Henda customer service multiple times, only to receive perfunctory responses, excuses, and delays. To this day, over $1 million in profits and the remaining principal are still illegally withheld by the platform, not a single penny has been released! Only then did I fully see the trueth of Hantec Bullion Limited: the so-called "legitimate platform" is nothing but an elaborate scam! Deposits arrive instantly, but after profits are made, all sorts of obstacles are created, allowing investors to lose but not profit—a blatant case of fund embezzlement and financial fraud! What's even more infuriating is that Hantec Bullion Limited deleted my profit data, preventing me from finding any evidence! IV. A Heartbreaking Warning: I urge all investors to stay away from Hantec Bullion Limited, a fraudulent platform! Having suffered a massive loss of $5 million USD over three years, and having been denied withdrawals of $1 million USD in profits, I have learned a painful lesson with my life savings. I solemnly warn all investors: Hantec Bullion Limited is a fraudulent platform with no real regulation, no guarantee of funds, and profits will be swallowed up. They will refuse withdrawals. Do not be deceived by their false advertising! V. Resolute Rights Protection: No Compromise! I urge victims to unite and seek justice! Hereby, I solemnly declare: I will spare no effort to protect my rights. I have compiled all transaction records, deposit slips, customer service chat logs, and other evidence to file complaints with financial regulatory authorities, law enforcement agencies, and even the police. I will pursue legal action against Hantec Bullion Limited to recover all my losses! At the same time, I urge all investors who have been defrauded, suffered losses, or had their funds refused withdrawals by Hantec Bullion Limited not to remain silent! Our silence will only embolden this fraudulent platform! Please unite! Give me back my hard-earned money! Heaven has eyes!

MAXIMUSFX

It's a scam. They're asking me for money to withdraw my funds. It's not fair that they're deceiving people. They asked for 35,000 Mexican pesos, which I had saved for my diploma program. I don't know why the government isn't doing anything about these companies. I'd be happy if I got my money back, and if not, well, everything goes back eventually.

If you win money, they accuse you of illegal trading; if you lose, it's a bottomless pit. They never pay the promised commissions. This is a completely dishonest platform. Please be extremely cautious, all users.

My friends have been stuck withdrawing funds for half a month now, since May Day, and their accounts haven't even traded! Another friend who made money is also stuck for a month! I lost over three thousand US dollars on my own account! I heard they don't allow withdrawals, so I applied for one, but they still won't let me withdraw even after I've lost money! When I contacted customer service, they just said it's under review! Never deposit money into this platform! Once you deposit, it's gone, and you can't get it back!

Severe Slippage

Upway

With two Upway accounts, both set with stop-loss orders, one closed near the stop-loss level, while the other experienced a significant slippage of about 13 points, resulting in substantial losses.

They accept crypto deposits and don't allow withdrawals. If you make a profit, they add slippage! Bank deposit fees are 10%! This is a scam platform. You shouldn't invest with this platform.

SCAM ALERT FOR COLOMBIANS: This platform is not regulated in Colombia and there is no way to recover your money. It's a scam. They pressure you to give them more and more money, and then you can't withdraw it. Afterward, they manipulate the platform to tell you that you've lost everything and demand additional payments for insurance and processing fees, and in the end, THEY DO NOT RETURN YOUR MONEY.

Scam

Asia Pacific

On April 9, 2026, without my intervention, instructions, or authorization, trading orders were generated out of thin air by the system, resulting in a loss of over $240,000 USD (see image). The buy and sell times and prices of these losing orders were identical. I did make normal trades on April 9th, but these abnormal losing orders did not appear in my account during the day; they suddenly appeared in the early morning of April 10th, showing as trades executed in the early morning of April 9th. Their execution times do not correspond to the actual order times I made during the day. I have a screenshot of my MT4 account from the daytime of April 9th, showing that these losing orders were not present at that time. However, in the early morning of April 10th, orders marked as being executed in the early morning of April 9th ​​appeared out of thin air. Therefore, it can be clearly determined that these orders were not executed by me but were abnormal orders generated fraudulently by the platform's backend. The platform Asia Pacific maliciously fabricated these false losing orders, tampered with trading records in the backend, and generated trades out of thin air without my intervention or authorization, directly causing huge losses. Such illegal and irregular acts that infringe upon investors' rights must be seriously investigated and those responsible held accountable!

RyvoTrade

This is a scam. I received a $15 bonus and met their withdrawal requirements, but my $25 profit was only withdrawn after a four-day delay. Ultimately, my withdrawal request was rejected due to "rapid trading," even though all my trades lasted more than two minutes. I do not recommend them. They are a scam and a waste of traders' time.

EE TRADE

The EE TRADE platform still hasn't offered any solution! They've kept my account frozen and won't let me withdraw my 87,000 USDT. A platform complaints specialist did call me and said they were willing to refund my principal, but with so much money in there, only refunding the principal is no joke! I hope YiTou shows sincerity and restores my account! They shouldn't just take all our profits without our knowledge! I really hope EE TRADE shows sincerity and resolves this matter properly. I deposited and operated normally. Why should they only refund the principal? I really hope the platform resolves my problem! I really hope the platform restores my account and returns my money. My money is all in my USD DT wallet, and it's just been taken away without my knowledge. They didn't even notify me. On May 11th at 12:20 PM, EE TRADE's customer service complaints specialist called me again, saying they were willing to refund my principal! I definitely won't agree to that. 87,000 USDT only refunding the principal?! What kind of joke is this?

Severe Slippage

Gold Fire

The slippage was severe. What's more, I'm unable to withdraw the profit and commission rebates. The platform's backend just blocked them directly. It's a scam platform.

Severe Slippage

VALUTRADES

If it were just a minor slippage on an occasional day, I could understand. But each slippage is severe, often ten or twenty points, and I always set stop-loss orders. Therefore, the loss caused by severe slippage isn't my fault. If I have to bear the loss, what's the point of setting stop-loss orders? The platform completely shirks responsibility, claiming it's due to market conditions. How can we, as clients, have our legitimate rights protected when trading on your platform?
