The case coordinates for Fortuno Markets were fixed the moment an official warning list picked the operation up. Our review of the available trail supports that placement.
Position on the risk map
Fortuno Markets claims to be registered in Saint Lucia. While we did confirm its registration with the Saint Lucia International Financial Centre (IFC), this registration merely confirms its status as an International Business Company (IBC). It does not confer a license for foreign exchange trading activities. It is important to note that the Saint Lucia IFC does not regulate forex trading. Additionally, Fortuno Markets states it operates under Fortuno Markets (UK) Ltd and is registered in the United Kingdom. However, our inquiry with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) confirms that the platform is not authorized by the FCA to conduct foreign exchange trading activities. Therefore, Fortuno Markets involves high risks to be a fraud.
Red flags on the map
- Withdrawal friction: new fees or conditions appear at cash-out time
- Aggressive outreach through social platforms and messaging apps
- Dashboard balances that cannot be verified on-chain
- Pressure to deposit more in order to unlock earlier deposits
If you have funds with Fortuno Markets
