So you need to be wary

Unauthorized FX brokers are becoming common in the industry, as fraudsters have grown increasingly resourceful in recent years. A commonly adopted tactic is for scammers to advertise an illegal operation as a reputable brand or entity. They do this in order to dupe unsuspecting investors into parting with their personal details or cash.

For example, an FX broker called So FX was also blacklisted by the UK’s watchdog after the company claimed that it operated ‎with an FCA license. The regulator, however, clarified that the ‎company does not have any valid license to provide ‎investment services in the country.‎

Echoing previous warnings, the FCA ignores that unauthorized brokers continue to promote unregulated investments, ‎taking money from the general public, and the regulator is ‎powerless to do anything.
