What the notices say

  • Trustpilot 1.2/5 “Bad” from 78 reviews; the documented 2020 pattern: aggressive phone solicitation, fake small profits, pressure to deposit more, withdrawals ignored, Indian staff posing as UK “account managers”.
  • ForexBroker.tips lists 70Trades with an “Offshore license” flag (legacy entry); forexscambrokers.com likewise lists www.70trades.com as an offshore-license scam.
  • Quora threads (2020): multiple victims report $200–$1,400 losses and zero response after withdrawal requests — “company opened in Seychelles with all Indian staff”.
  • A 73-year-old retiree was pressured into breaking fixed deposits (Trustpilot, 6 Nov 2020).
  • Status note: an amdarklimited.com “recovery firm” review (27 Nov 2025) still describes 70Trades using fake-profit dashboards — which suggests the brand name is being re-used by recovery scammers. Treat recovery firms quoting 70Trades as suspect until proven otherwise.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you close my 70Trades account, or have the person who phoned me call again?

Forensics Source Group is not affiliated to this broker. We do not hold an account at 70trades.com. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as 70Trades.

70Trades says I must pay a tax or fee before withdrawing — should I?

No. A real broker deducts a fee from the balance. A new payment to release your own money is a second charge. Keep the message that asked for it.

What do you do with what I send?

We place it next to the record above. Where the same payment shows up from other people, those files can sit together as a class action. The first look is free.
