Try to attach more details , if possible screenshot with account number details. All online brokers are money makers. At that time UFX wasn't ready to counter your trade and deleted your profit. If you would loss in such trade they wouldn't delete it for sure. I am curious ..how much you deposited in your account? $7571 profits in a single trade Imao. These brokers obtained cheating public licence from moron authorities. Try to trade directly with Bank . Be it in your country or overseas or CFTC approved USA brokers.
Here is my printscreen:

Sounds like Cyprus is a little short on cash. Probably because of all the bad brokers trying to get their money out now that Cysec is showing signs of taking actions against some of the worst of them,
This is worth reading……

Now we sure know the major Israeli’s PSP firms, supporting the entire scam industry, but i
do wonder about the one acquiring bank, as mentioned…..any idea ?

I guess senior members had come across this video SAREL TAL CEO Allcharge/Algocharge
This sure involves Cyprus regulator and so on…..
All he is talking about is shoppers FRAUD, not a single word about MERCHANT FRAUD !
In fact any crook regulated or not is welcome, even tough PSR’s require merchant
screening and sufficient rules to protect shoppers/consumers……
If anybody managed chargeback with Allcharge, let us see the prove.

Hi, had major issues with a Binary options company who was regulated by Cysec. I contacted them several times, and was told that I would have to send them 30 Euro with the complaint. As they really can't do much in way of restitution, I also contacted Interpol and the Financial Ombudsman in Cyprus. None were of any help. The company was sanctioned by Cysec earlier this year along with a few others, and now it appears they can only provide what they call "One touch trading" now. You decide whether the price will hit the price. Only can trade on Apple, Google or Facebook. I was scammed out of $30k by a senior trader working for this company who deposited money into my account without asking. He told me that it wasn't a bonus and wasn't subject to any conditions .
When I tried to make a withdrawal I was informed by their accounting department that I had not met the Trading requirements to make a withdrawal. I had to have a turnover of $1.2 million. I did manage around 200k lol. I had deposited 13k and he put in 16k. So more than 100% which is the usual max bonus. He emailed me and told me that he had opened a joint account in his and my name and another Trader had put in 2000 Euro of his own money. He told me that he would trade with this account and he would send me the profits. over a couple of months he told he had made around 50k and would send it to me if I sent him more money. I contacted support online, via email and phone, multiple times over several months regarding my concerns, even sending them copies of emails and Skype conversations between this Trader and myself. After five months they found out that he was carrying out a scam, and not just with me, but with many other customers. The only assistance that I received from the company was from other Traders, who wanted me to invest a minimum of 5-10k and help me trade out of my predicament. One Trader offered to manage my account for me , if I deposited $20k at least. They did see my issue with that company and my lack of trust in them lol.
Needless to say I did not receive any money!! I now trade futures and have basically taught myself to trade and am finally consistently profitable. I am looking at quitting my job in the near future. So in closing I would say stay away from any companies regulated by Cysec. These companies hid away in Cyprus and a few other countries where they don't have to pay tax on gambling.
