Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why Lebway is on the register
Lebway claims to be a Forex, commodity and cryptocurrency broker operated by LEBWAY WEALTH LTD, and according to its website Lebway has applied for the relevant compliance licenses and permits issued by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC) and Dubai DMCC. However, none of the mentioned licenses have been received by the broker and DMCC is merely a free zone for trading rather than a financial regulator that approves licenses for brokers to provide financial services. Lebway also claims that they have acquired Ausinvest Mauritus ltd which is regulated by the Mauritius Financial Services Commission (FSC). However, the alleged acquired company is not under valid regulation as there is no such match in the FSC’s register. So Lebway is currently not regulated by any financial regulator. That means investors’ funds in this broker is unsafe and cannot be protected by any laws. Therefore, it is a scam broker.
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.
