Fake FXCM

Fake FXCM is a broker registered in Belgium, with an official website at fhjtax.com. The company was founded on October 19, 2021. According to our records, the broker claims to operate under the name 'Fake FXCM,' which appears to be an attempt to impersonate the well-known broker FXCM.

As of the time of this review, the broker does not hold any known regulatory licences. The absence of regulation raises immediate concerns for trader safety and fund security. Belgium's financial regulator, the Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA), has not authorised this entity, and no credible oversight is in place.

Fake FXCM is not regulated by any recognised financial authority. This means that traders have no recourse to a regulatory ombudsman or compensation scheme in the event of disputes or broker failure. The lack of regulation is a significant red flag, as it indicates the broker operates outside the legal framework designed to protect investors.

We cross-checked the broker's details against public registers from multiple jurisdictions and found no licences. Aggregated industry data also confirms the absence of any regulatory oversight. This makes Fake FXCM a high-risk entity.

Our proprietary scam risk scoring system has assigned Fake FXCM a score of 85 out of 100, categorised as 'Severe.' This score reflects the broker's complete lack of regulation, its recent incorporation, and the fact that it uses a domain (fhjtax.com) that does not match its claimed brand name.

Traders should be extremely cautious. The broker's name and website are not transparent, and there is no verifiable information about its financial standing, ownership structure, or operational history. In FXCanary's assessment, Fake FXCM presents a very high risk of being a fraudulent operation.

Given the lack of information and the high risk score, it is difficult to determine a specific target audience. However, the use of the 'FXCM' name suggests that the broker may be attempting to attract traders familiar with the legitimate FXCM brand.

This broker is not suitable for any trader, regardless of experience level. Investors seeking a reliable and regulated broker should avoid Fake FXCM entirely and choose an entity with a clean regulatory record.

In summary, Fake FXCM is an unregulated broker with a high scam risk. The available evidence points to a potential impersonation scheme. Traders are strongly advised to steer clear of this entity and to verify any broker's regulatory status before depositing funds.

The onus is on the broker to provide transparent information, and until it does so, it cannot be considered trustworthy. FXCanary continues to monitor such entities and update our assessments as new information becomes available.
