Dear trader


Thank you for trusting BrokersView.


We are sorry about what you have experienced with UOBE FX.


Unfortunately, though we've tried to convey your complaint to the broker, it is very possible that the broker will not give us a reply, since it is a scam. 


It is suggested that you report the case to the local police.

I met a guy on Tinder who introduced me to cryptocurrency. I have always been interested on crypto and so I was engaged when he told me he could teach me how to trade on WhatsApp. He taught me how to setup the account in crypto.com and asked me to install Ubsarov FX6 from the Apple store and search UOBE FX in the platform. After that, he asked me to put in a small amount of 500 USDT just to start off, and then it earned 100 USDT after the trade. I got amazed by how it works so I add another 400 USDT and it earned again. He then asked me to increase my fund to 3,000-5,000 USDT. He kept pushing me saying that he has a strategy and the opportunity is right. We need to invest more in order to maximise the profit. And so he proposed that I increase my fund to 2,000 USDT and he lent me 1,000 USDT. It was a long position and it took a few minutes until my 3,000 USDT became roughly 32,000 USDT.

 

When I was trying to withdraw the money, it was returning back to my account. When I asked the customer service, they said I have to pay for international capital gains tax of 8,247.75. I got suspicious at first because why would I pay taxes in the platform? But then, I only got 72 hours to settle the amount and the guy was also convincing me to pay so I paid. When I was trying to withdraw, the customer service said that I was suspected to be part of money laundering because of a transfer of third party which was from the guy and I have to pay 6,800 USDT of security deposit to prove that I'm innocent. After that, I was asked to pay for security certificate of 6,200 USDT and platinum membership of 4,800 USDT. When I finally got to the withdrawal part, it's now asking me for a fee of 8,800 to be a priority but I have nothing to pay. I was so desperate to get all the money back so I didn't think that I was being scammed until I found out. I have all the screenshot of the transactions of the trade and the deposits I made in the platform.
