Hi.
I had been lurking in this forum and that's how I knew I had been scammed. Yes sometimes you keep on giving false hope that you are not being scammed but that's the reality I accepted after I read most of the posts here.
I had made report to my local authority and plan to do so to HKSFC.
So I met this online chinese guy from dating apps. He claimed he was now currently staying in my country and he was from Hongkong but his mom was from China.
Then silly me get to know him and downloaded a trading apps (link given by him) called SLFX (Link: m.slfxpro.com/download). And I just blindly accepted that this apps can't be found online as it is more secured for forex traders.
Once created the account, I deposited USD150 then make some profit and able to withdraw all of my fund in the account. Then is no issue on second withdrawal as well. But when comes to third withdrawal ie full withdrawal, then that's when all those tax payment, margin deposit, handling fee required.
I stopped after deposited the margin deposit (felt super stupid now). And I search for forex scam and that's how I came into this forum.
Well in positive side, money can be earn back but just have to dwell on how stupid I was...
Just wanted to post here so that people can able to find that this online apps called SLFX is a scam.
I cannot search anything about SLFX except there is a website called SLFX trading. but the logo used was not the same (this should be a red flag but yet I was stupid that time....)
Also guys, do you think I should make a complaint to HKSFC? Because I do not have any entity name, the chinese guy is fake, and I only liaised with the apps customer service (which they claimed they are governed by HKSFC) That's why I am thinking whether should I send a complaint or not.
Also I am not quite sure whether I post it in the correct thread though.
Anyway take care and stay safe!
