Critical riskScam flag reason
Reported · 8 months ago
AAFX Trading operates through an offshore entity with no tier-1 regulatory oversight. Multiple traders report that withdrawals are approved on-screen but never actually paid out, and that bonus "lock-in" clauses are used to block access to deposited funds. Support becomes unresponsive once a withdrawal dispute is opened.
