• Please try to select the correct prefix when making a new thread in this folder.

    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.

Do not invest your money in forinvest they are sacm.
 
WOW-This is a new low even for these half-wits. You "win" their contest but only if you pay them money! ROFL! They wont even post here anymore-total cowards! Why dont they just pay themselves out of the 3k? Because they are thieves. If you sent them money - consider it a down payment on your continuing Forex education. There are only 2 or 3 "brokers" worse than ForInvest. And I do believe they are owned whole or in part by the same group of thieves. Isnt this the home of the "Swiss-Advisor"? I wouldn't waste my time even trading your account there-you will NEVER be able to withdrawal profits(if your that lucky) as this is a "deposit-Only" Broker.:shocked:

"First and foremost, I want to and need to ask you how in the hell (pardon the expression yah!) did you & the other competitor got your USD10k Demo account to over USD500k in just 1 month???"- LOL- Does anyone on planet earth still believe this is genuine? They offer these ridiculous "prizes" because they know the "winning" trader will never be able to withdrawal it. Like I said before-this is the Middle eastern version of InstafraudX.

Hi peter okeke,

Yup, ernest8fingers said it all…that scumbag broker never intent to pay one single cent to anybody as they are “deposit only” broker.

The only other thing you can do now is to post your comments in as many other site as possible to let others know that ForInvest is REALLY a scam company pretending to be a broker. For starters, go over to 100ForexBroker site and post your comment there too as these scumbags are masquerading as one of their “200,000” genuine happy clients.

Best of luck in your next broker!

P/S: And oh yah! How the hell did that scam company helped to make your 10k competition account grow to over 500k in one month?
 
So you got lucky and managed to get a $100 out of them. Wait until you try to pull out a few thousand and see what happens.

you have been lucky but that still does not answer any of the above asked questions.

btw.: if you use MT4 you might set the history in your mt4 station to all history

if you did there might be a problem with your MT4 platform or a limitation with the amount of trades shown in MT4Stat
