I recently went through interview of cityfinancialtraders.co.uk as it was a 2stage interview n got selected they r asking £5000 in return they ll give a proffessional trader technician qualification level 1 and they ll prepare for interview and provide a guaranteed work placement in hedge-fund or IB after 1 month; or you can pay £2000 upfront and £200 on direct debit for next 24 months. In addition, they ll give money back guarantee with a legal bond where they ll give back 10% every month untill u get placed in a firm.

There office is situated in canary wharf n tower 42 and the company is run by Richard Peterson who owns cityforextraders.co.uk

I am bit confused as there other companies like Savvi Trading ,futex, amplify which offers the same types of course but don't offer a job guarantee. They seemed very professional and I have already signed contract and need to pay remaining amount in upcoming days. If anybody can offer advise on it I ll be thankful to them.

Love it, this is a reverse scam, so called because we (PB, actually) reverses the scam

I'd also advise people run a mile from these people and in fact anyone offering these types of deals.

wow....I cant believe that...but now I do ...great work....
You are a legend and thanks I ll call them now and ask for a 10% of the fees which i paid to them

One more thing which I wanted to discuss here is they had three options of paying that fees when I said to them I ll go for option 3 which is £2000 and is there anything that they can advice me on the payment option. The guy said let me have a word with my colleague he went out of the office for 5 min and said if u cld pay 3500 in 8 days it will include everything which surprised me and sounded fishy.
I came home looked name of all the people which they have given on the website but could'nt find anyone of them on facebook even their recruitment team which was really surprising

But many thanks to the legend who helped me

Ring them up and tell them you want your money back. Here's why, they are guaranteeing you a job and to support this they have published some accounts from previous customers who all got trading jobs.

Well all is not as it appears. For instance this 'Adefolu Okoronkwo' chap who got a 'mid level hedge fund position' is fact called Augustine Amusu and his photo has been copied from the Richmond University website. So just to be clear they have made up stories about successful previous 'students' who have gone on to get trading jobs, in order to do so they have gone to a website and copied some photos, gave them new names and claimed they are now traders.
