Signal Provider Scam
SIGNAL PROVIDER SCAM is a modern-day scam. New to trade or beginners are the most affected ones from this scam. They like to do the trade but fail to wait or analyze the market and acquire the knowledge.
Some retailers or individuals who promote as a signal seller with an attractive website and have paid testimonials and reviews stating them as 99% accurate signal provider and get the beginners to attract into them for subscription in terms of daily, weekly and monthly. And once the investor paid for that signal, the signal provider will not provide the signals at right time or giving excuses like server issue, they get vanished from the client in few days resulting in the loss of subscription fees for the investor.

It increases the adrenalin of investor and makes them trust that computer will place a trade and make profits even when customer is asleep or away from the trading time and inspire them with a handy mobile application to track the performance of the trade which is placed by Robot(Auto-Trade).
High-cost platform
In trading, both the experienced and beginners will always seek for the experience with a minimal investment like few hundreds, but some brokers start with minimal like $5000 which they show like trade-in snow.
This makes us fishy, Yes definitely. Investors always choose the best which allows them to get convenient with their taste of capital investment and trading experience with the platform not for the higher capital.
Never Leave You Out
When the investor thinks that broker or platform where he made his investment is not the right choice anymore or he wants to leave, but the particular broker did not allow the customer to get out by holding their balance and not responding to the customer’s withdrawal request, then it’s time to be alert. Immediately the customer should complain to the financial authorities and report to the concern department.
JUST A BALANCE
The brokers show always a profit! yes its always a profit and ask the customer to load more funds and it is just a number where customer can see but it’s not physically available for withdrawal. And these funds turns a lavish lifestyle for the broker with BENTLEY and PRIVATE JET and in few days they will vanish from the customer’s sight.
Always customers are advised to have their profit in hand. Don’t dump more, it will lead worse.
