Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why G4Trade is on the register
G4Trade claims to be operated by SB Global Ltd, a licensed financial services provider authorised by the Anjouan Offshore Financial Authority(AOFA) in the Union of Comoros with License number L15825/SBG and regulated by the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) in South Africa under licence number 47701, offering a range of investment products to traders, including Forex, Metals, Indices, Stocks, Commodities, Cryptocurrency, and more instruments for trading in global markets. G4Trade also claims to be a trademark of Swiss Innovationen AG. But this Swiss company is not regulated by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). Upon investigation, SB Global’s Anjouan AOFA license claim to be verified due to the authority not disclosing the licensee’s web address. We found that the company with licence number 47701 is TRADING ONE CAPITAL (PTY) LTD, but it also has not disclosing the licensee’s web address and brand in FSCA. The truth is that G4Trade is not regulated by any regulators. Letting it hold or control investors’money is unsafe, and the money can not be protected by any laws. G4Trade is 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. We never ask for up-front recovery fees.
