Some operations earn a place on the Cointiverse map through victim reports; Fx Markets arrived by regulator flag. Both routes end at the same coordinates: elevated risk.
Reading the coordinates
FX Markets claims that it is a group of companies which include First Prudential Markets Pty Ltd, an ASIC regulated provider of CFD and Forex trading services (ABN 16 112 600 281, AFS License No. 886351). BrokersView has reviewed that First Prudential Markets Pty Ltd is indeed a legit broker regulated and licensed by ASIC, FCA and CySEC. However, there is no mention of FX Markets and its domain in the regulatory details of First Prudential Markets Pty Ltd given by ASIC, FCA and CySEC. Furthermore, the customer service of First Prudential Markets Pty Ltd states that they have no business with FX Market. That means FX Markets may be a clone firm who illegally uses the details of regulated firms with which it isn't related in any way.
Red flags on the map
- No verifiable licence for the jurisdictions it targets
- 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
