Balance transfer

Service use: Live Length of use: over 1 Year
Does anyone receive email like this:

Dear Client,

We inform you that unfortunately, due to financial difficulties FortFS ceased to provide services and stopped operations. However, we offer you the great opportunity to transfer the balances of your trading accounts and open orders to NPBFX broker on special unique conditions prepared for FortSFS customers only. Thus our clients can continue trading on financial markets while maintaining a trading account balance.

NPBFX is a universal brokerage company providing customers with trading on financial markets for more than 25 years. NBPFX deserved traders confidence from various regions of the world. You can transfer balances and open orders to NPBFX up to September 30, 2021.

How to transfer the balance of the trading account and open orders?

1. Register and open a trading account in the company NPBFX with the link: Registration of a personal account.

2. Request the statement of your trading accounts from FortFS by e-mail: payments@fortfs.com. In the query, please indicate the following: "Please provide me the statement of my trading accounts in FortFS to transfer balance and open orders to NPBFX" *. Requests for the statements are processed on a first come, first served basis within 10 business days.

3. Provide the statement of your FortFS accounts to your personal manager at NPBFX or send it to email: info@npbfx.com.

4. Expect balance and open orders to be restored on your NPBFX account in accordance with the FortFS's statement within 10 business days. **

5. Restored account balance will be available for trading without any restrictions.

6. Account balance will be available for withdrawal, if within 30 days after its restoration, the trading account has been deposited with an amount of at least 25% of the restored balance.

7. Account balance is available for withdrawal after the trading turnover will reach the number of closed lots determined by the formula: the number of closed lots = 0.5 * The sum of the restored balance sheet.

8. The proposal is valid until September 30 for FortFS customers only.

* The request to email payments@fortfs.com to initiate this transfer of data and account balances, means that the client expresses its intention to transfer balance and open orders to NPBFX broker, client understands the transfer conditions, gives its voluntary consent to FortFS to transfer the personal and account data to NPBFX and rejects all financial and other claims to the FortFS company after the transfer of balance and open orders to NPBFX is done.

** Recovery is subject to only open market orders without taking into account the financial result of swap operations. Pending orders can be restored by the client by himself. If the equity value of the client's trading account in FortFS exceeds the balance of the trading account, then the sum of the equity will be restored on the trading account in NPBFX without restoring of the open orders. Orders can be opened by a client at current market prices. Balance, equity and orders of FortFS cent accounts will be converted to standard accounts in NPBFX.

Just another Voice!

Service use: Live Length of use: over 1 Year
Dear Forexpeace Army Members/Viewers,
1.Just to add my voice to the Recent(Apparantly scammed ?),Traders.
2.I too have been Unable to Access my mt4 a/cs,since 16 June 2020!
3.I HAVE been able to login to their VPS,BUT my 5 a/cs are NOT connecting,or 'responding' to 'correct login data.
4.I suppose the Lesson to be learnt ,is that there ARE Genuine 'Sharks' out there and that we Traders have to be Very careful in whom we choose to Trade with.( DON'T keep ALL your Eggs in ONE BASKET!!!).
5.I use at least 8 different Brokers-some more Reputable than others,THIS one seems to be 'one of the losers'.
6.For 'Ordinary' law abiding Citizens like myself,(probably seen as WEAK people by these SCAM Operators),It makes one Wonder WHAT goes through their Minds!?
7.How would they feel if they or their Loved ones were scammed in a similar Manner;BUT Hey,these type of people DO NOT think like Most decent people;their Brains (?),seem to be 'Wired differently',Indeed ,you Almost have to feel Sorry for them!
8.ENOUGH said!
Ex Fide Bona.
Deus Benedicat.
PS. Thank you ForexPeace Army for PROVIDING Your REPUTABLE platform for Comment and HELPING other Traders!

fort fs under maintenance from June 16th

Service use: Other Length of use: 0-3 Months
My account number is 3198309.
I can no longer log in from the site and even on my mt4 account from June 17, 2021.
In here there are people who say that it is working is a lie, publish the screenshots of your operation or of the site with the date of today if it is true.
They are removing the line on the accounts perhaps a little at a time, so as not to create too much noise.
If they have more than 50,000 registered accounts the people to write would be so much more.
I have on my account the last e-mail received of the balance with 668 euros and 4 open positions which are now positive and I have deposited a total of 250 euros since March 2020.
The last few times they asked me to deposit only via skrill, perfect money but no longer with prepaid master card or visa cards or via ethereum.
I registered on binance, deposited 100 euros and then transferred them to fort fs with the Wallet code of their ethereum address.
2 days pass and nothing had arrived, I contact them and they tell me that I have to provide the txt ID of the transition is a long alphanumeric string.
I give them all the data and the money arrives in my account, they said that it was the ethereum platform that caused the problem and if I would repeat the operation I would have to do it again.
To withdraw instead, just enter the wallet address on which you are registered in this case mine is from Binance and I think they arrive in a few minutes.
But now the situation is really serious, there are many people like me waiting for answers.
I've always chatted with Alex Dawson and Tim Berger.
Now I demand answers otherwise I contact the postal police.

Jun 22, 2021 - 1 Star Did you understand why there are people who have their accounts blocked from May 13, 2021 and who like me from June 17, 2021?
In order not to make a lot of noise, because if they block everyone at the same time, people shouting at the scam would be more, so instead they do not give to understand anything strange.
That's why whoever has the account open can report and make our voice, asking customer service why they are doing this bastard

Zero stars is too many

Service use: Live Length of use: over 1 Year
Withdrawal for 900USD requested on 7th May. Was approved on 25th May. As of 21st June money still isn’t in my account.

MT4 servers have been disconnected since 18th June.

Login area of their website also inaccessible since 18th June . (4 days ago)

Absolutely horrendous negative slippage on almost every trade execution ,was generally losing up to 2 pips on every closure when the stop was set on their server. Obviously had the virtual dealer plug in switched on…


Goodbye FortFs , looks like you are finally out of business.

Zero stars would be too good a review. But I can only leave one as a minimum. Shame.

FortFS is since middle May not accessible.

My last trade on FortFS was on the 13th of May. Since then it was not accessible. They claim their server is under maintenance, see https://trader.fortfs.com/login. But, I believe they have taken away all client funds. How can I report this criminality?

حتى الايداع الخاص بك لا تسطيع ان تسحبه
ومن سوء حظة لقد سرقنى ، ولا يوجد ارباح كى يتم الغائها
يجب محاكمة هؤلاء اللصوص . ويجب كشف احتيالهم للجميع
انا لا اقوم باهانته عندما اقول انه لص فقط انا اوصفه
عندما يسرقك احد ما ، ماذا تقول عليه " انه لص "
هكذا انت لم تقوم باهانته " انت فقط تصفه

لقد قمت بتسجيل فديو اشرح فيه كيف يخدع هذا اللص المتداولين
قمت بتسجيله كى احذر المتداولين جميعاً من هذا اللص

-----------------------------------------

This thief stole 369$ from me
I made a total deposit of more than 6000$
I lost more than 2,500$
This middleman is a criminal, unlawfully stealing people's money
He always canceled profits for all his traders
Even your deposit cannot be withdrawn
From a bad moment he robbed me, and there are no profits to be canceled
These thieves must be prosecuted. Their fraud must be exposed to everyone
I don't insult him when I say he is a thief, I just describe him
When someone steals you, what do you say is "he's a thief"
That's how you didn't insult him. "You just describe him

I made a video explaining how this thief is deceiving traders
I registered it to warn all traders about this thief
How to steal them, how to defraud them
If you want to know this thief broker for what he is
Go watch this video, on YouTube
I will spread this video everywhere
I will destroy this thief's reputation, because he deserves it
This is the video link on YouTube. Detect fraud thief
