Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why Orca Markets is on the register
While Orca Markets claims to be registered in Saint Lucia and have an office in Miami, the facts raise serious red flags. We did find an entity named Orca Markets Ltd registered with the Saint Lucia International Financial Centre (IFC), but this only gives it International Business Company (IBC) status, not a real financial license. More concerning, there’s no record of Orca Markets in the U.S. NFA’s official registry. That means it’s not authorized to offer financial services in the U.S., making its operations there illegal. Orca Markets doesn’t appear to be regulated by any major financial authority, therefore, it is very likely to operate fraudulently.
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.
