Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why Capitalprimex is on the register
Capitalprimex claims to have an office address in the US. To be considered a legitimate forex broker in this country, it must be registered as a member of the National Futures Association (NFA). However, our research indicates that it is not under the NFA’s oversight, which raises a red flag. While Capitalprimex asserts that it holds the AFSL 436416 issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) and the license 40356 by the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission (VFSC), our investigation reveals that these two licenses are actually associated with Trademax. The profiles provided by financial regulators suggest that Capitalprimex has no affiliation with this legitimate entity. This situation appears to be a case of identity theft. In essence, Capitalprimex 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. Capitalprimex 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.
