FOREX.com Deposit & Withdrawal

When we sit down to write a funding review, we normally have a body of independent user reports, complaint threads and tested withdrawal timelines to draw on. For FOREX.com — the entity operating at yesyes123.cn and registered in the United Kingdom as StoneX Financial Ltd. — that body of evidence simply does not exist yet. There are no independent reviews on file, no verified client testimonials, and no public record of how deposits or withdrawals have behaved in practice.

That absence is itself the most important fact in this review. In FXCanary's assessment, a broker with no independent track record and a Scam Risk Score of 85/100 is not a firm where you should be experimenting with large sums of money. Our funding guidance below is therefore built on what is verifiable — the regulatory registrations, the corporate identity, and the risk flags — and on general safe-funding principles that apply to any broker with this profile.

Our records show two licences for this entity. The first is a Market Making (MM) licence from the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), licence number 446717, registered in the United Kingdom. The second is a Derivatives Trading License (EP) from the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA), licence number 25033, registered in the Cayman Islands. We cross-checked these against the public registers and they appear consistent with the entity we are reviewing.

However, two licences do not automatically mean two layers of client protection. The FCA licence, for example, is held by StoneX Financial Ltd., but the website in question is yesyes123.cn — a Chinese-language domain. In our experience, a broker may hold a licence in one jurisdiction while operating a separate brand or website in another, and the regulatory protections of the licensed entity do not always extend to clients who sign up through the unlicensed domain. We would urge any trader to confirm, in writing, which legal entity and which licence will govern their account before depositing a single dollar.

The most serious concern is the risk profile attached to this broker in industry watchdog records. FXCanary's own assessment flags FOREX.com as a 'Fake Broker' in industry watchdog records, identifies it as a clone or impersonator firm, and notes that there is no verifiable website or social-media presence. These are not minor administrative flags; they are the kind of markers we typically see with entities that are either operating without proper authorisation or deliberately mimicking a legitimate brand.

The combination of a high scam risk score and the absence of any independent review record means that, as of today, there is no positive evidence that this broker processes withdrawals reliably. There is also no evidence that it does not — but in the absence of evidence, the prudent assumption for a cautious trader is that the risk is elevated. We would not advise depositing funds with this broker until the ownership of the domain and the regulatory coverage of the specific account you open are clarified to your satisfaction.

Our known facts do not include a list of deposit methods, minimum amounts, or processing times for FOREX.com. The web search results we reviewed did not provide any reliable or consistent information on these points either — and, as we have noted, much of what appears online for this name may refer to a different entity. We therefore cannot confirm whether the broker accepts bank transfers, credit cards, e-wallets, or cryptocurrency.

What we can say is that the absence of published funding details is itself a red flag. Legitimate brokers, even new ones, typically publish clear information about how to fund an account, what the minimum deposit is, and how long withdrawals take. When that information is missing or buried, it often means the broker is not prepared to be held accountable for its payment practices. In FXCanary's view, a trader should not have to guess how to get money in — or, more importantly, how to get money out.

We have no independent user reports, no complaint threads, and no tested withdrawal timelines for this broker. That means we cannot tell you whether withdrawals are processed within days, weeks, or at all. We will not invent a narrative of delayed payments or frozen funds, because we have no evidence of that — but we also will not pretend that the lack of evidence is reassuring.

For a broker with this risk profile, the only sensible approach is to treat every withdrawal as a test. Before depositing any significant amount, you should have a clear plan for how you will request a withdrawal, what documentation you will need to provide, and what the stated processing time is. If the broker cannot or will not answer those questions before you deposit, that is your answer.

If, despite the warnings, you decide to proceed with this broker, we strongly recommend that you follow a conservative funding strategy. Start with the smallest possible deposit — an amount you are fully prepared to lose. Do not deposit money that you need for living expenses, rent, or any other obligation. Treat the initial deposit as a test of the broker's honesty, not as an investment.

Second, test a withdrawal early. The best time to discover that a broker does not pay out is before you have deposited a large sum, not after. Request a small withdrawal as soon as you have any profit or even a return of your initial deposit. If the withdrawal is delayed, rejected, or met with demands for additional fees or documentation, you have learned something valuable at a low cost. Keep records of every transaction, every communication, and every promise made by the broker.

One of the most serious flags in our records is that this broker has been identified as a clone or impersonator firm. This means that the entity operating at yesyes123.cn may be pretending to be a legitimate, well-known broker — in this case, the name FOREX.com is strongly associated with a major global brand. Clones often use a similar name, a similar logo, or a similar website design to trick traders into thinking they are dealing with the real firm.

Before you deposit, verify the official domain of the broker you intend to use. The legitimate FOREX.com brand operates through forex.com, not through yesyes123.cn. If you are unsure whether you are dealing with the real entity, contact the regulator directly — the FCA and CIMA both maintain public registers where you can check the licence status and the authorised domain. Do not rely on the broker's own website or on third-party reviews that may be fabricated.

In FXCanary's assessment, this broker presents a severe risk to client funds. The combination of a 'Fake Broker' flag, a clone warning, no verifiable web presence, and no independent review record means that we cannot recommend depositing funds with this entity. The regulatory licences on file are a point of reference, but they do not override the practical reality that the website in question is not the official domain of the licensed entity.

If you are looking for a broker with a transparent funding process, tested withdrawal reliability, and a clean regulatory record, we would advise you to look elsewhere. If you do choose to proceed, do so with the smallest possible deposit, test a withdrawal early, and keep meticulous records. The burden of proof is on the broker to demonstrate that it can be trusted — and so far, it has not met that burden.
