Winbitx portrays itself as a registered business providing investors with legal online trading services. But actually it is not entitled to operate on any market because he runs without even a license.
On 15 November 2021, the Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) of Belgium has issued a public warning against Winbitx. The FSMA received complaints from consumers concerning the new fraudulent online trading platform that is operating in the Belgian market. The regulator strongly advises against responding to any offers of financial services made by the broker, giving the reason that the company is not entitled to carry out services in Belgium that require a licence and is therefore neither permitted to trade on a commercial basis on its own account nor on behalf of others.
On the other hand, on 30 September 2021, the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) added Winbitx to its alert list, saying that the firm is not authorised by it and is targeting people in the UK. In other words, the entity is an unregulated forex broker. That means investors' funds in this broker is unsafe and cannot be protected by any laws. Therefore, it is a scam broker.
