Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why Fortuno Markets is on the register
Fortuno Markets claims to be registered in Saint Lucia. While we did confirm its registration with the Saint Lucia International Financial Centre (IFC), this registration merely confirms its status as an International Business Company (IBC). It does not confer a license for foreign exchange trading activities. It is important to note that the Saint Lucia IFC does not regulate forex trading. Additionally, Fortuno Markets states it operates under Fortuno Markets (UK) Ltd and is registered in the United Kingdom. However, our inquiry with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) confirms that the platform is not authorized by the FCA to conduct foreign exchange trading activities. Therefore, Fortuno Markets involves high risks to be a fraud.
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.
