Abstract:Have you ever heard of a special software that you have to purchase from your forex broker just to get your withdrawals approved? This is another day that WikiFX heard of a new scam strategy that a forex broker imposes on its clients.
Swift Pivot Trade (SPT) is a forex broker that is established in America last year. It is a brokerage firm that provides the trading of currencies, indices, commodities, and stocks. Its official website is https://swiftpivottrade.com/.
This is the first Exposure article that WikiFX has ever received in relation to SPT. It was submitted by a victim named Philisiwe from South Africa.
A little background of her story:
She was approached by a lady named Elizabeth on a social media platform named Ti***k who told her that depositing money with SPT could bring her passive and guaranteed profits. However, when she saw that her account was growing with profits, she requested to withdraw her funds. She was turned down and was told that she needed to purchase a special software that allows the withdrawal to be directly credited into her bank account. After she purchased that software, she still could not withdraw a cent up to this day.
Below are the screenshots provided by Philisiwe that outline the process of her being scammed by SPT and Elizabeth on Whatsapp:
Upon checking WikiFXs free database, we have found that SPT is a forex broker that has less than 1.0 Wikiscore. It is new, does not have any regulatory status, and does not hold a valid license to support its operation.
On the other hand, in one of the emails that the Philisiwe received from SPT, it could be possible that SPT is the predecessor of Epic Option Trading, that is also a forex broker from the United States that is neither regulated nor carries a valid license.
WikiFX sincerely advises our users to download our free mobile app for your personal benefit and only choose forex brokers that have at least a WikiScore of 7.0 to be safe than sorry.
