Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why UOBE FX is on the register
Firstly, UOBE FX, whose domain (uobefx.com) is newly registered in June of this year, uses a website template popular among scammers, suggesting their intent to defraud. Secondly, on UOBE FX website, it claims to be headquartered in the UK and has the MSB license from the US. BrokersView has conducted a search on the registers of the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) but found no matching results. As such, the claim is unfounded. At last, since UOBE FX domain’s registrant is in the US, we searched the National Futures Association (NFA) register to check this broker’s license in this jurisdiction. Unfortunately, no corresponding records matching UOBE FX could be found in the database. In essence, UOBE FX 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. UOBE FX 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.
