Who is FB Trade?
On the surface, FB Trade looks like an ordinary forex and crypto broker. Its public site is presented at https://24fb-trade.com/. But surface impressions are exactly what these operations rely on — the substance behind FB Trade is where the problems begin.
Is FB Trade regulated?
We could find no evidence that FB Trade holds a valid licence from any recognised financial regulator. Trading client funds without authorisation is one of the strongest indicators of a scam — there is no regulator to complain to, and no protection for your money.
Red flags we identified
- Offshore or shell-company registration used to avoid oversight
- No credible physical address or verifiable corporate record
- Account dashboards that show “gains” with no real market exposure
- Unrealistic profit claims and pressure to deposit more
- Opaque or anonymous corporate ownership
Our analysis
On 14 May 2022, the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA) issued a warning that FB Trade is not authorised to carry out banking transactions in Austria that require a licence. The provider is therefore neither permitted to trade on a commercial basis on its own account or on behalf of others. You may visit: https://www.fma.gv.at/en/fb-trade-ltd/
Can you recover money lost to FB Trade?
If you have deposited with FB Trade, do not pay any further “fees” to withdraw — that is part of the trap. Funds sent to operations like this can sometimes be traced on-chain and pursued through the exchanges and processors that received them. Whether recovery is realistic depends on how you paid and how quickly you act.
