Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why Money Wave is on the register
Money Wave claims to be a licensed trading platform but fails to provide any specific information about its regulatory status. While it purports to be domiciled in Dubai, there are no indications that it is licensed and regulated by any relevant financial regulators, including the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA), the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA), and the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates (CBUAE). In essence, Money Wave is not regulated by any governing body. Entrusting this broker with investors’ funds is highly risky, as there are no legal protections in place to safeguard the funds. Money Wave is unequivocally 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.
