The domain is anonymously registered and the address in the Seychelles appears to be an accommodation address judging by all the other companies that seem to occupy the same suite.

Apparently, 5Stars Forex have decided that they are able to invent their own laws and not be governed by the laws that the rest of us are - I'll be waiting for the 5Stars Forex Police to arrest me for illegally visiting their site. :laugh-s:

You know - forex dealing is actually one of the simplest trades known to man, but you wouldn't think so from this wording.

Bonus of 50% of the Deposit Amount up to $10,000
Rescue Withdraw Bonus means it is a Balance Bonus, not a Credit Bonus, It can be withdrawn if a certain number of lot traded.
The Bonus will support the Margin and Will Hold the Positions Open till the Stop Out level reach by the total balance The Deposit and The Bonus.


.. and that's only half of it. :laugh-s:

I defy anyone to have the slightest clue as to what any of it means and I used to deal for a major UK bank.

I had traded with 5Stars Forex more than 1 year I think 5Stars Forex is the best broker among others broker in Forex business because of their good reputation in Forex world, I started to trade in a demo account to gain experience and after a couple of months I open real account and made lots of profit and withdraw easily.

Here are some good points:
• Multiple assets and accounts (zero spread and zero commission)
• NO withdraw/deposit fee and instant deposit. Withdrawal normally gets processed in 24 hours.
• Tight spread, most major has nice spread as EUR/USD and GBP/USD pairs
• There are PAMM and daily analysis services.
• 50% rescue withdraw bonus
Overall, I recommend this broker.

There's a great customer support in 5Stars Fore, one of the most effective I've ever encountered. I address them from time to time with my issues and problems and they always solve them in less than no time. What I like especially is the variety of depositing and withdrawal methods, many of them are without commission fees. They But Strange part, What's wrong with you some people They shared bad about 5Stars Forex however I had not found Any loses and serious problem even me and my friends are trade with 5Stars Forex from different countries we all are in profit and took our profit amount timely. I think all unsuitable complaint are from bad competitors to down successful and real broker. 5Stars Forex recommend this SMART Broker for all SMART traders.

The various certificates on scam website 5starsforex.com claim to have been issued to "5 STARS MARKETS LTD LONDON, LONDON GB". There is no such company registered with Companies House.

really dumb scammer, Naran kandel wrote:There's a great customer support in 5Stars Fore, blah, blah


Typical scammer actions, trying to hide the truth about their operation with lots of fake testimonials.

Keep it up dumbass, you are only increasing the popularity of this thread so that all your potential victims can see you for the frauds you are.

FAQ's

21. What currency can I trade with MTrading?
MTrading offers all major currency pairs, exotic pairs, precious metals and CFDs for trading.


MTrading ? :laugh-s:

Having trouble deciding who you are ?

This set up only works when there are a lot of unsophisticated people with free cash to invest, which isn't the case currently and, if they do exist, they're investing in property, not foreign exchange. The only loser is the person who invests in this software thinking it's an easy way to take money off gullible victims. I'd ask for a refund if I were you.

If you do a little research it isn't difficult to uncover who is behind this website and a whole slew of similar irregular Forex websites. The operation is based in Cyprus which is a hotbed for many of these dubious set ups.

The simple fact and truth is that no one should ever trust their money to any financial entity without doing some background investigation and, if they are not properly registered and regulated in the country where the investor/depositor is based, do not touch them. You will lose your money.
