Forex Scams

[twinkles929]

Army FX are constantly trying to make people aware of Forex Scams!

We have all heard allegations about fx scams but the truth is that many scams are perpetrated by traders trying to get an edge. The most common mistakes are:

DON’T CHEAT - Using third party software or EAs to try to trick trading software systems….this is just STUPID! The software designer takes no responsibility and you WILL be breaking the terms and conditions of the trading software so WHEN you get caught, you WILL lose everything. Pick a trusted Broker and do your research…Cheats always lose!

READ THE SMALL PRINT – Small print on software packages as many have a clause like ‘this software is for educational purposes only and is not meant for real trades’ so make sure that you READ IT ALL. It boring I know and they make it deliberately very small to make it difficult so just copy and paste it into Word and increase the font size….Simple when you know how!

DON’T LIE – Don’t lie on your FX broker application! This is a classic and the FX Brokers will always catch you out and close your account….Simple! Shout and scream all you like but you if you can’t do the time….you know the rest.

TRUST NO-ONE - There are a million (OK slight extradition) Brokers out there using Boiler Room tactics to get you to buy into their clients accounts. If you don’t do your research and just invest with some guy…or girl who has called you out of the blue then don;t be surprised when you get ripped off. These guys are relentless, high pressure sales people who are REALLY good at convincing you of their track record and legitimacy. DON’T TRUST ANYONE….Do your research, look on the FSA website and just simply Google them to see what others are saying about them.

Never heard about about ARMY FX before. I know only Forex peace army. What is your purpose ARMY ? Can you help guys to recover scammed money ?:innocent:

It is not within our remit to provide direct advice on recovery, we simply take an independant and unbiased look at accusations of FX Scams and provide our findings to the readers for discussion. We are happy for our readers to share their experiences and details of any recovery actions they may have taken and we invite specialists from relevant agencies and organisations to comment and provide the advice that they are qualified to provide. I hope this answers your question.

Is that necessary?

 

[Liquid validity]

Is that necessary?

I'd say so.
All the reviews and case studies, in fact anything relating to a
specific broker only point to one broker, who you say are great.

Now the broker in question is regulated by the FCA and ASIC
so I'm not going to delve any further into them.

It does raise the issue of your impartiality though.
Are you an affiliate of that broker or are you actually a representative
of that broker?
Seeing as the broker in question openly run an affiliate scheme,
that is not an unfair assumption or question.

If you think thats unfair, then why are there no other reviews or case
studies on any other brokers?

We fully understand where you are coming from and I can confirm that we are not affiliated to any particular broker. However, Army FX is quite new and so the range of discussions regarding brokers is still building. The issue and broker in question is what sparked the discussion off so it is quite prominent. However, if you would like the system to feature other brokers please feel free to start a thread. We will then look at the issues and comment appropriately.

Well given what you say here, all I can do is take it at face value.
Although if you are genuinely impartial, it may be an idea to
either not mention the broker in question, or reload the content once
you have a more comprehensive and broad set of reviews.

 

[pboyles]

Clearly you've learnt nothing from being caught posting fake positive reviews. Now you start a free Wordpress blog and try to pretend you're actually fighting scams, you're an amateur.

You've obviously come across him before then,
more to this than meets the eye.
Any details?

 

[pboyles]

Multiple fake and suspicious reviews posted.

Thank you for your constructive criticism.

I'm sorry but you are creating your own conclusion. I can confirm that we are 100% genuine and our prime purpose is to help people identify FX scams. I am purely on here for that reason only and not to argue. I think that comment was very harsh and completely untrue. You have every right to say what you think but i would suggest doing some proper research.

 

[pboyles]

. i would suggest doing some proper research.

Oh I don't know if that would be a good idea or not. Are you sure you'd like me to?

 

[twinkles929]

What will your research consist of? Reading other fake reviews and comments that have been posted about our site? I can tell you right here right now that Army FX are completely legitimate and i don't want to hear he said this, she said that, i want solid hard proof!

 

[twinkles929]

What exactly is your issue with us? All we are trying to do is help, i have no idea why you have just come on here to slate us? Unless of course, you are, in fact a scammer?

You are an amateur attempting some sort of online reputation management for Vantage FX because they have been caught with their trousers down. They even got caught spamming FPA with fake reviews, or was that you, anyhow you're fooling nobody here.

 

[twinkles929]

Exactly as i thought, no proof because it's untrue. You are fooling no one.

This is a weird thread.
