Why CBF Trade Services is on the register
CBF Trade Services’s website provides no regulatory disclosures, only claims that it was registered in Hong Kong. We searched the official register of the Hong Kong SFC using all available details, but found no record of CBF or any associated company. This absence of basic corporate and regulatory information strongly suggests that CBF Trade Services operates without authorization. Therefore, CBF Trade Services 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.
