Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why GIIFOO is on the register
GIIFOO claims to be based in Canada and operates under the name HTRIVE INTERNATIONAL LIMITED, which is registered with the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) as a money services business (MSB No. M22609042). While this registration exists, it is critical to note that FINTRAC does not regulate or oversee forex trading activities—those fall under the jurisdiction of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) or provincial securities regulators. Our investigation confirms that GIIFOO is not authorized by IIROC or any other recognized Canadian financial regulator to offer forex trading services. As such, GIIFOO operates without legitimate regulatory oversight for its claimed activities, presenting a high risk of fraud or financial loss, and appears to be a scam.
If you have money with this broker
- Stop sending funds. Do not pay any further “fees”, “taxes” or “verification” charges to release a withdrawal — this is a common secondary scam.
- Preserve evidence. Save transaction IDs, wallet addresses, chat logs, and every screenshot before the account is closed.
- Report it. Notify your bank/exchange and your national financial regulator so the activity is on record.
- Get guidance. Tell us what happened and we will point you toward the right next step. We are a free public registry — we never charge any fees.
