Abstract:A trader was scammed by a fake worker who claimed to be working with XM as a trader and offering investment to people to trade on their behalf.
Forex trading can be a source of income. Some people trade forex as their primary source of income, while others do it as a side business. Because the forex market has boomed, many people exchange conversations while doing online trading without realizing that the risk of being scammed is extremely high. People made the online trading business riskier than before by offering services to people to invest and trade on their behalf. But in the end, it's just a scam. When they do this, they usually claim that they are working with a legitimate broker and can show you proof of profits from their investors.
WikiFX got a report from an investor saying that he had been scammed by a fake broker claiming a worker from XM.
As we all know, XM is one of the most popular online brokers in the online trading market that offers a variety of instruments to trade.
People are still blinded by these tactics: somebody will suddenly contact you, offer good trading services, and promise a good return once they invest.
The Story
An investor was able to invest money in the person contacted and promised a good result from the money he invested. As time went on and they got to know each other, he told her that the money he had invested had earned over 90%. However, the sad part of the story is that when he requested to withdraw some of the profit, he was told to pay a broker's fee of 10% of the total profit, and it must be deposited before he can get his earned money, knowing that they can deduct the said fee from the money and the earnings they've got.
