Bonus Trap: Unregulated FX Broker Trade Horizon Receives Multiple Warnings

To attract traders to invest, forex brokers often offer bonuses for investors who deposit. For scammers, however, offering deposit bonuses is a method of fraud. Just like Trade Horizon, this fraudulent broker offers very attractive bonuses to its clients. However, not a penny of the bonus it promises will go into your pocket.

 

Two Operating Websites & Bonus

Though some of its websites have been suspended, Trade Horizon now has two operating websites ("www.tradehorizon2.com" and "www.trade-horizon.com/fr") that share the same logo and design. It is not rare to see that a fraudulent broker has multiple websites. It can continue to scam even if one of the websites was exposed.
