The FSMA makes the following suggestions to investors in order to prevent fraud:
Always confirm the corporation's identification (company name, home nation, registered office, etc.). It should not be trusted if the firm cannot be recognized.
Always confirm that the business in question is authorized. Always be wary of “cloned firms”: businesses that pose as distinct, legal entities while having no affiliation with them. A detailed examination of the email addresses or contact information of the organizations in issue may help detect and prevent this sort of fraud.
Since many of the list's fraudsters have been revealed. It is thought that looking up information about brokers on WikiFX before you start trading will assist you in avoiding being cheated.
