Yes.

The record

What the notices say

  • The Russian forex blacklist FOREXFIRST lists “Лжеброкер Vertex FX (vertexfx.us)” — listed since at least 12 Mar 2023.
  • swiss-partner.biz analysis: no verifiable legal entity at the claimed address, unregulated, “exhibits every characteristic of a financial scam” — including the withdrawal-tax trap.
  • YouTube warnings cover vertexfx.us and app.vertexfx.us specifically.
  • Disambiguation: the name collides with VertexFX, the legitimate long-standing trading-platform vendor by Hybrid Solutions (hybrid-solutions.com), and with an unrelated legitimate UK FX-payments firm (vertexforex.co.uk). This page is about vertexfx.us only; both legit brands are victims of the name-harvest, not subjects of it.

  • a name one step from brands people already trust
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you close my Vertex FX 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 vertexfx.us. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as Vertex FX.

Vertex FX 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.
