The FX Player Review — Is The FX Player a Scam?

Forensics Source Group is not affiliated to this broker. We do not hold this account, we cannot close a balance, and we do not phone you as this firm.

Yes. The FX Player is a no-deposit-bonus “forex broker” (FxPlayer Ltd) flagged since 2017 — the bonus is the bait, the lockout is the product The notices are written once, in the block below. If you paid thefxplayer.com, the date and how you paid are the part this review cannot see.

What the notices say

  • Trustpilot 2.3/5 from eight reviews: a $100 no-deposit bonus lure with login failures and “Trading Service Is Closed” loops (2022–2024 reviews); one review alleges password-harvesting — “they are hackers trying to steal your password”.
  • ForexBrokerz rated it 2/5 with a scam/safe investigation (2017, updated since) — long-flagged.
  • Bonus-bait mechanics: the bonus is promised via referral links, the account then becomes inaccessible — classic lead-generation for follow-on deposit fraud.
  • Hedge note: old but live; verify the site's current claims before stronger wording. The bonus-abuse pattern is the core story.

  • a $100 no-deposit bonus that can never be claimed
  • login loops and “Trading Service Is Closed” screens
  • a referral-link funnel that harvests credentials
  • deposit requests arriving right after the lockouts
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you close my The FX Player 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 thefxplayer.com. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as The FX Player.

The FX Player 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.
