CBF Trade Services is pinned to our watch chart for a reason. When our cartographers traced the operation, the trail lined up with an official warning record rather than with any verifiable licence.
What our cartographers found
CBF Trade Services's website provides no regulatory disclosures, only claims that it was registered in Hong Kong. We searched the official register of the Hong Kong SFC using all available details, but found no record of CBF or any associated company. This absence of basic corporate and regulatory information strongly suggests that CBF Trade Services operates without authorization. Therefore, CBF Trade Services appears to be a scam.
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
If you have funds with CBF Trade Services
Stop sending money immediately – especially any payment framed as a tax, unlock fee, or verification deposit. Preserve everything: transaction hashes, wallet addresses, receipts, chat logs and emails. The paper trail is what a recovery review runs on.
