Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why FXOptimax is on the register
FXOptimax claimed to be registered with the Financial Services Authority of St. Vincent and the Grenadine (SVG FSA) under license number 21417-IBC-2013. However, we didn’t find it in the SVG FSA register. In addition, it is important to note that the SVG FSA neither issues forex licenses nor regulates entities engaging in such activities. Moreover, on April 26, 2023, we find that the FXOptimax website is not functioning properly, which can be considered as a red flag, suggesting potential issues with this broker’s reliability and resources. In essence, FXOptimax 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. It 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 to the right next step. A free public registry — we never charge any fees.
