I try to check their trustpilot, and I also check their answers to negative comments. Sometimes people can't stand losing money and start calling the broker a scammer. I will then search for their name on social media sites such as Twitter and Reddit and use trading forums for one last step. That is something serious, and you can't skip any steps; you can even add some!
Scam brokers make ridiculously ambitious claims of their clients' wealth and profits. Clients are often pictured taking selfies with a supercar.
Scam brokers offer unrealistic amount of leverage and high deposit bonus that raise question about the broker’s liquidity.
Bad reviews are one thing. If you wanna make sure, just deposit the smallest amount possible and if you face problems during withdrawals, you got yourself a scam.
Scam broker offer big and big alluring packages that a regulated broker hardly offers. No certification proof and bad reviews may help identify scam brokers.
As a trader, I prioritize safety and reliability above all else when choosing a broker. I look for brokers regulated by reputable authorities and with a strong track record of transparent operations and client satisfaction. Additionally, I conduct thorough research, read reviews, and verify credentials to ensure that the broker I choose aligns with my trading goals and values.
Such brokers often offer tempting bonuses to attract clients. Also, during trading, they often experience widening spreads, orders are opened and closed slowly, the trading platform is unstable and freezes, which is done intentionally to lose their clients' deposits. This is how they make money.
