Abstract:A certain CySEC-regulated broker EMPORIUM CAPITAL resisted its investor from withdrawing his remaining funds from his account.
It can be very disappointing and distressing to be scammed by a regulated broker in any instance, as you may have trusted that the broker was trustworthy and operating within the law because of its regulatory status.
It can be mentally challenging to come to terms that you've been controlled or not allowed to get your funds from your account by someone who is supposed to be regulated and trustworthy. An example is Emporium Capital
A little bit of background of Emporium Capital
The Emporium Capital Group of Companies offers multi-asset Forex and Contract for Difference (CFD) trading. According to their official website, they established a safe trading network consisting of high-end technology and respected alliances from their offices across the globe with numerous regulated countries, allowing Emporium Capital to be a secure and trusted broker.
The said financial company is regulated under CySEC and has been in business since 2020.
From the statement above, how come such a regulated broker did kind of illicit acts to their investor?
However, upon checking the name of the said company under FCA's official website, no registration under the name of EMPORIUM CAPITAL.
As we all know, FCA is one of the major financial regulatory bodies that have the power to set rules and standards for financial firms, supervise their compliance with those rules, and take action against firms or individuals that violate them. The FCA also has the authority to conduct investigations, impose fines, and revoke licenses for firms that fail to meet their regulatory requirements. It was established in 2013, and it was created as a successor to Financial Services Authority (FSA). The FCA is independent and funded by levies on firms that it regulates.
The case story
“An investor invested amounting to $4500. The time that the investor wanted to get his remaining amount from his account amounting to $1400, he requested a withdrawal. Unfortunately, it took him 7 days for the representative to reply to his request. The sad part is, the representative named Halil a Turkish told him to make a transaction so he could send $1000 over his account. From this moment, he made a lot of calls since the day he requested a withdrawal but until now nothing happens.”
