Topic Wiki

This is not Forex trading. You cannot buy or sell Forex with these sites. They use the name Forex specifically in order to deceive people into thinking they are investing in Forex which they are not!

What they do is let you bet whether a currency will go up or down and you supposedly win if the currency moves in the expected direction. The money never leaves the company! Ever! Unlike a risky but real Forex trade that involves buying a currency, hoping it will go up or down and subsequently selling that currency for a profit or loss, nothing is bought or sold here. You are merely betting on the direction the currency will move: up or down. If you are wrong, you "lose" the money and the company keeps it. If you were right, you "win" and are supposed to get the "profit" on your investment.
This is no different than betting hundreds or thousands of dollars on the flip of a coin.

Someone will ask: "so how is this different then a Casino where you can make or lose money?" The difference is twofold. First of all, with a Casino, the risk is clear. Anyone that walks into a Casino knows there is a high chance they will lose their money. With these "companies", they do everything they can to hide the risk and pretend they are an "investment". No one tells their friend or wife "I am investing $1000 in casino gambling" but over here were you are doing the same thing, no one will tell you that your  "investment" is pure gambling. Second, in a Casino no one coerces you to come in and gamble away your money and if you lose, they don't pressure you to gamble more money. With these "companies", ounce you put in a small amount of money, they pressure you and hard sell you to add more and more money to your initial "investment" and try to get you to leverage yourself which increases the risk exponentially all while hiding the risks and selling you dreams of huge profits. When you lose money, they try very hard to get you to double down on your investment and "invest" even more money.

I haven't even touched on the fact that with a lot of these "companies" it is impossible to get your money out even if you "win". They are registered in remote countries, have no psychical address or offices and you can never pin them down to get the money. Also, most of these trading platforms are rigged and don't really represent what happens in the real Forex world.

Before I get jumped all over on a Friday I am not saying this "guy" is legit. What I am saying is Forex trading is legit and I have used it in the past to lock in massive profits (no risk hedging). If you are a gambler you are better betting with them (flip a coin) then playing black or red on roulette in Vegas.
"LESS IS MORE" It is the cumulative effect that kills deals!!! How many times do I have to say this?  >:(

We're talking about these ads on frum websites, which is for a specific forex trading platform "Trade 24" which is clearly a scam and does not allow users to withdraw any money in the small chance that they do "earn" something from their trades. The "business" is registered in Cyprus and has many reports online of people being unable to withdrawn money. Once you add money to "trade" it's basically lost forever. It's a total scam, on top of the risk of day trading and forex trading in general, especially for people who know nothing about it.

Forex trading is legit. Binary trading, which bets on the (rigged) movement of currencies (and other things) on the traders platform, is not. The "trader" signs you up for an account and you bet on movement in currency "x" for instance in the next hour as set forth on their trading platform. They rig the prices so that you can never "win" and even if you do "win" they hard sell or plain dont return your money. They never expose themselves to much if any risk as they control the market.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Dan, I think this is DDMS worthy.

I would say within hours of a DDMS post these ads will be gone from all the above mentioned sites.

I personally contacted two Heimish websites that run these ads,  and have not received any response.

If everyone here emails the websites and demands they be removed by lunchtime today I'm sure they'd all be down.

They dont care. It keeps the lights on at sites like COL and VosIzNeias. Why would they give up the only advertising revenue that they have on a consistent basis? They keep responding "Oh, we didnt know, we dont control the content of the ads on your computer" and statements like that.

The only way to get people to realize that this is worse than casino gambling, which at least in most countries is regulated, is to scream at the top of your lungs. Dan, this is DDMS worthy. At least it should be pinned at the top like the "Dont Swipe for Others" thread. People are losing money and getting "had" every day. This is not an investment product. Its casino gambling with the veneer of legitimacy peppered onto it using buzzwords like FOREX and investment.

If they leverage you, the the odds of "winning" can go down to 1/25

Can easily be 1/100. Multiply those odds by the amount of "deals" you bet on and you get terrible odds. All that is assuming you are dealing with an honest company which many are not.
