    Discuss is for general discussions of a financial company or issues related to companies.

    Info is for things like "Has anyone heard of Company X?" or "Is Company X legit or not?"

    Compare is for things like "Which of these 2 (or more) companies is best?"

    Searching is for things like "Help me pick a broker" or "What's the best VPS out there for trading?"

    Problem is for reporting an issue with a company. Please don't just scream "CompanyX is a scam!" It is much more useful to say "I can't withdraw my money from Company X" or "Company Y is not honoring their refund guarantee" in the subject line.
    Keep Problem discussions civil and lay out the facts of your case. Your goal should be to get your problem resolved or reported to the regulators, not to see how many insults you can put into the thread.

    More info coming soon.

Problem Banc De Binary is a Scam.

I am having an issue with a company
I had a similar experience with Banc de binary. I pulled to this broker when I was trying to start forex and a software named profitprofecy came up and promised me using it I can make easy money on banc de binary. Anyway I opened account but did not deposit any money, after several calls from the company that claimed in the owner of this software and also from this broker I deposited $250 then a guy named Basel called me and told he is my account manager and will help me in trading and asked me to increase my investment but I did not accept. He called several times and told different strategies that how if I deposit $1000, I can make $600 a month and I did not listen again and every time he became more unhappy. Anyway one night( I am in Australia) he called me and with a world full of heat told me about an special opportunity that is created with apple stock and promised me if I deposit $1000 right now I will make $700 in one night and my money is %100 safe and in a very low possibility if I lose the trade my money will be back by company.unfortunately I did and straight away he asked me to open a trade on CAD/JPY for $1000 for a short term. I trusted him and I lost the trade! he came back to me and when see I am angry told that he already knew that I will lose it and send me some forms to I sign and he returns my money. I did and he did. again I opened 3 short term trades and I won 2 of them. next day when I tried to withdraw the money, I saw it is impossible and when contacted customer service they explained because you accepted bonus you cannot withdraw it before trading 50times on its value. I became angry and contacted my account manager -Basel- and he tried to make me calm and explained he will help me to reach to that point after 3 month and not only withdraw my initial deposit but make good profit and stupid me trusted him again. Anyway with his expert signals I lost 90% of trades and lost all my balance. I lodged a complain to the relevant department within banc de binary but they only old that it is sent to management and now after about 3 weeks there is not any update.
Last week and send a complain to relevant regulator in Cyprus that banc de binary has get certification from them and still waiting for response
 
about withdrawl

The transfer was done by Skrill (Moneybrokers)( deposit and withdrawal) and they confirmed that Banc de Binary made a transfer of only 186.21€ instead of 233€ of the original 250€. My fault, I've read the Terms and Conditions but it's difficult to find when you don't know the clause is in there. They have put it with the bonus regulations.
It's been 4 days since I wrote an email to complaints departement for a recalculation. No answer yet. Doesn't surprise me though.
Tomorrow I will contact them again sending an email to all the departements (client service, accounting, complaints). I know it's not a big amount but when they do it several times a dayto several persons, it's becoming a large amount..
Should I tell them that I want to make a complaint at Department of Market Surveillance and Investigations of Cyprus where they are a member?
Thanks

Please open your own thread here in Scam Alerts and share the details of what happened to you.
 
I have the same experience. the trader was Chris Johnson and he lured me with a chart that if I deposit 10 000€ he will trade it profitable to 100 000€ in six months andhe lost everythingin one trade and explained it was a mistake and he will get my money back which never happened
 
The same happened to my family! We joined the system as one of our friends (he also didn't know this was a scam) invited us to this damn website. At first we thought it was legit so we invested 88000€. Our money went high into the sky to 366000€. When we wanted to withdraw our money they started calling us dumb and idiotic and they stopped answering us on our e-mails. Then they made a bunch of bad trades and we fell down to 300000€. We requested them to stop, but there is still no answer. We got tons of proof (emails and photos on our iPad).

If anyone could help us get our money back we would be very grateful!

P.S. Do NOT, I repeat do NOT invest in this site if you want to have your money safe!
