    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 Scammed by usgfx

I am having an issue with a company

This will be a long thread and i will update it with new info soon. I tried to post this fast as a warning to other traders who use usgfx.

I am a mass managed account owner on usgfx and so far i got margin called by their "profit sharing".

Each month on 10th, 30% of the profit needs to be withdrawed from my clients accounts and deposited to an account i own. That account currently is on same MAM.

Problem appeared when usgfx withdrew the money from my client, because my client lost also his part of margin. That money got deposited to my account on that MAM but that did not stop the client account to margin call even though my MAM was safe.

Another problem is i have no way to see my client account and this includes his margin.

Even thought i showed proofs that my MAM account was not margin called just my clients account and that it happened because of that unsafe profit sharing withdrawl usgfx did they refused to accept it was their fault and refund client account.
 
first time hearing of them, i think they are malaysian based? regulated? they seem pretty new in the scene.

First of all, invite the company by using invite company option to your thread. And if you unable to locate the option then this thread "Tutorial: How to Invite a company to your thread." will help you to find out.
 
Be patient, it's the holidays...
Also, this is a regulated brokerage in Australia.
They are likely not some "total scam".

Good luck!
