Forex & Stock Trading Scams are one of the most common type of Investment Scam. There are thousands of websites that claim to generate profits by trading in the forex or stock markets. Investors are asked to make deposits, usually using Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, with the promise that they will be given profits to the tune of 1% to 3% a day. However, these websites are not operated by traders but by scammers. Once the initial investment has been made, fake profits will be shown on the platform, following which the scammers will demand additional fees to withdraw the non-existent profits.
