    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 Reallocation of profits and other strange activities

I am having an issue with a company
FPA did nothing except tell us about a case that the NFA is dealing with.

Not all Scam Findings are the result of an investigation. Some are about things the NFA, CFTC or SEC release to the public. The reviewer who tipped off the FPA to this is clearly thanked in the article and in the scam finding. If one of my review moderators hadn't sent this over to the Scam Investigation Committee, it would have just been a simple 1 star review.

The FPA sent a warning out to the mailing list. The FPA gave members and guests a quick summary of what was going on. The FPA marked this company as a scam in the reviews. This means that people who might have been getting ready to send money to this company have a better chance of getting warned if they google the company.

The FPA's primary mission is to help people avoid getting scammed in the forex market. Publicizing scams to warn traders is a critical part of this mission. Even if no FPA member was scammed by this company, it serves as an example of what scam companies are capable of.
