• 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.

I want advice and solutions for stopping subscribers from cheating

If fx-reco was looking for free advertisement, he went about it in a strange way. He posted a distress message here at the FPA. I have no idea who he is or if his signals are good or not. He didn't ask me to do a mailing to bring it to anyone's attention. I surprised him with the mailing.

There is no single perfect answer. I publicized this thread because I wanted to get ideas on the table to help any forex company facing the same issue.

Friends - I did not want advertising here - if i was want advertising Why I have not put a link or an email or anything for us ??? this is real issue want Need to solve -
 
Well, first of all you may need to decide what you actually (need) to know from your trial users.
This collected info should contain at least one unique and assignable footprint for that user.
(could be name, account number, Paypal account, credit card, email address, ip, etc..)

Of course things like email and IP address are more easily to change than payment info.
(guess, that after 3 different paypal accounts.. air is getting pretty thin for the next one. If trial is a week or 10 days or whatever.. that users are forced to leave or pay pretty fast)


Naturally you would want to use that pieces of information you need to get from clients anyway.
Means if you never would call a client.. why collecting tel number?

If your clients know that after trial they should pay via credit card or paypal.. you may collect it upfront (but without charge. Paypal let´s you do this fairly simple) Other solutions where payment and sometimes delivery is handled for you ( examples: 2co, Avangate, Clickbank, etc) have their own way of handling such cases. Of course they all have their own pros and cons.

To help further you may want to let us know about your way of distribution?
(signals via email, screen reader software or metatrader copier, ..)
 
If you were an IT specialist, you would know that it's fairly simple to hide your true IP address and make the visible one appear to originate from anywhere you like (almost) in the world...

Does anyone know how I can get an IP address from off planet???:)
 
If you use the SimpleTrader trade copier portal it locks your users Paypal account to a single trial. So they can't abuse the system.
