I've been asked to start a new thread with the info below being shared right up front here instead of having it embedded as post #193 on page 20 of my original complaint thread at https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/community/threads/banc-de-binary-mega-scam.43677/page-20.
Can everyone also send emails to public@isa.gov.il - to complain about BDB to them as it is an Israeli registered company as well - although it won't provide services to Israelis - guess they know that they will be hard hit by the Israeli government if they try and scam their own Israeli people!
I informed the Israeli government in my email that I was writing to notify them of the mega scams and to complain about Banc de Binary (Banc de Binary Ltd / ET Binary Options Ltd / BO Systems Ltd / BDB Services Ltd?? / BDB Services (Belize) Ltd), a financial institution owned by one of their citizens, Oren Shabat Laurent aka Oren Shabat aka Oren Cohen, who is also a US citizen as well. I told the Israeli government that I understand that Banc de Binary is based in Cyprus and Israel, and is fully registered in Israel under registration number 514405281. I told them that I have been scammed and defrauded by Edward West and Banc de Binary out of USD$52,600, and I set out all the details of my complaint to the IFSC Belize and the Cyprus Financial Ombudsman.
I also provided the Israeli government with the link of the Banc de Binary building, that huge tower in Ramat Gan, Tel Aviv District, Israel, which was circulated in this forum - https://goo.gl/maps/fCJQYA9Ugvs (https://www.google.nl/maps/@32.0851...4!1sg8dj1vqRGT_e8Ear8N-vCA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656)
And I attached an extract of an article on Oren Laurent's interview in 2011 with Binary Options Daily (from https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/commu...ary-bbinary-com-issue.17052/page-4#post-87822, post #31) where Oren Laurent in effect states that Israeli citizens are not allowed to trade on the Banc de Binary platform (so they can't be scammed, whereas it's ok to scam the rest of the world!). He also provided a US address at Trump Tower on Wall Street, New York, when there was no such registered security firm with that name in the US.
As my email was sent before the US$11M settlement with the SEC/CFTC in the US, I will be sending them a follow up email with news of the settlement, and I would encourage EVERYONE to also write in to public@isa.gov.il and also mention the recent settlement and provide them with a copy of that news article at https://leaprate.com/2016/02/banc-de-binary-reaches-11-million-settlement-with-us-authorities-wsj/
I asked that the Israeli government investigate the scams perpetrated by Banc de Binary and to do something to stop them from continuing to scam the public globally and tarnish the good name of Israel while they are at it, even though they are not scamming the Israeli public. I provided them with all the links starting with my post on being defrauded and scammed by Banc de Binary at https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/community/threads/banc-de-binary-mega-scam.43677/; as well as the following links on the Banc de Binary scams which have been posted in various forums at https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/community/search/648062/?q=banc+de+binary&o=relevance; http://www.scambook.com/company/reports/45549/Banc-De-Binary;

and several complaints against Banc de Binary at http://www.binaryoptions.net.au/binary-options-complaints/, including the following complaints -
http://www.binaryoptions.net.au/com...money-banc-de-binary-emtied-my-account-of-14-000e/; http://www.binaryoptions.net.au/complaint/no-risk-investment-has-loss-all-my-money/; and http://www.binaryoptions.net.au/complaint/beware-of-brokers-lies/; amongst others.
Please feel free to include all the links above and whatever other links you have as well when you complain to the Israeli government as well as all other regulatory authorities, and the Banc de Binary regulatory authorities (CySEC (http://www.cysec.gov.cy/en-GB/cysec/contact/), Financial Ombudsman of Cyprus (complaints@financialombudsman.gov.cy and fin.ombudsman@financialombudsman.gov.cy), and the International Financial Services Commission of Belize (director@ifsc.gov.bz; www.ifsc.gov.bz/) to make them aware of how widely Banc de Binary are scamming people globally!
Please also do not forget to write in to Standard Chartered Bank as Liverpool FC's main corporate sponsors, as well as the owner of Liverpool FC and point out to Liverpool FC about how Banc de Binary now have access to all the Liverpool FC supporters to scam as well with Liverpool FC's endorsement of them as a "partner" and notify Standard Chartered that they are now tainted by association with Banc de Binary as a Liverpool FC "partner" ... please see my post at https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/community/threads/banc-de-binary-mega-scam.43677/page-8, post #78.
The Fenway Sports Group in the US is the parent organization for Liverpool FC (www.fenwaysportsgroup.com; Email: info@fenwaysportsgroup.com).
The sponsorship arm is Fenway Sports Management (http://www.fenwaysportsmanagement.com; Email: info@fenwaysports.com)
Also, with the recent bad publicity in early February 2016 generated by the Liverpool FC fans for the ticket price increase (http://www.express.co.uk/sport/foot...talks-over-ticket-prices-protests-News-Gossip), can you imagine what sort of publicity that would generate when the fans are scammed by Banc de Binary as they are ripe pickings for Liverpool FC's "partner"!
For Standard Chartered, I think we can contact any of these people at https://www.sc.com/en/news-and-media/media-contacts/corporate-media.html. I'm sure that they will forward the complaint email to the appropriate department to look at it.. For those who were scammed with their Standard Chartered credit cards, please make special mention of that too - I certainly will, and so will one other person, I'm sure! I'll be sure to mention too that Banc de Binary after more than 2 weeks of silence started jumping up and down and asking me to stop the banks from making the counter-claim / chargeback when they were hit with this specific bank's counter-claim!
Please also don't forget to lodge and file complaints with:
(1) IC3 at https://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx
(2) econsumer.gov at https://www.econsumer.gov/en/Details#crnt; and
(3) INTERPOL at http://www.interpol.int/Forms/Contact_INTERPOL - this is just so INTERPOL also receives complaints from all of us who have been scammed by Banc de Binary first pending official reports lodged by our respective police departments globally.
So please follow up and make sure that police department in the country where you lodge your complaint also escalates your case to INTERPOL, as your official police report is what INTERPOL will look at officially, and what will work in all our favour is that INTERPOL already has official reports and files on Banc de Binary from other victim reports from this forum and elsewhere, I'm sure, eg "lost enough" who had filed a police report with the RCMP who advised them to INTERPOL and they did get all their money back from Banc de Binary after INTERPOL's investigation - see https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/community/threads/banc-de-binary-is-a-scam.26127/page-7#post-228129.
