The record

What the notices say

  • FCA warning (15 Sep 2022): CRYPTOXTRADES is an unauthorised firm — avoid. It is one of the oldest warnings on this site.
  • OSC warning (30 Mar 2026): still not registered in Ontario — a four-year persistence that says reboot, not repentance.
  • The funnel, documented (Reddit r/CryptoScams, Nov 2024): the “Mighty Prosperity” YouTube persona sends victims to CryptoXTrades as a “third party exchange” for free crypto trades — the giveaway-fraud pipeline.
  • Trustpilot 2.5/5 with the “received regulatory attention” flag (19 Nov 2025); WikiFX composite 1.45/10 (May 2026).
  • The documented mechanic: small test withdrawals pass, large ones are blocked.
Loss or this pattern

A trading loss and this pattern are not the same

  • YouTube-influencer funnels into a “free trades” exchange

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you close my CryptoXTrades 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 cryptoxtrades.com. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as CryptoXTrades.

CryptoXTrades 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.
