No — Lynx Broker is a real business. But the scam reports around it are under active investigation, and if you lost money to someone using its name, that is exactly what we investigate.
Send this to Forensics Source GroupLynx Broker is the Czech branch portal of LYNX B.V. — an established EU online broker (founded 2006) supervised by the Czech National Bank, AFM and BaFin These are the facts that check out on public registers — the complaint record is what our review is still working through:
Checking out is not the same as closed: the complaints against Lynx Broker are under active investigation, and none of the facts above protects you from a fake. Most 'lynx broker scam' searches trace to impersonators, not the platform itself — the ones that don't are the reason we investigate.
One more thing before you deposit: the complaints around Lynx Broker are under investigation — by us, not by a regulator. The caveats are ordinary broker-service matters: a €3,000 minimum deposit, securities lending on an opt-in basis, and no deposit guarantee on idle cash. The one distortion worth correcting is the WikiFX score — it contradicts the regulator's own register and should not be read as a finding.
Both feel identical from the inside. They are fixed by completely different routes — and the fastest way to tell them apart is to ask three questions.
If it is the real platform: your dispute runs through its formal complaints process, then the regulator or ombudsman. Slow, but it usually works. This page exists partly as a data-hygiene note: when an aggregator's score and the regulator's register disagree, the register wins. Verify LYNX yourself on the ČNB public register, licence 02451778.
If it was an impersonator: you were never a customer of Lynx Broker at all. A clone site, a fake “account manager”, a lookalike domain — the money went to criminals, not to the platform. That is fraud, and speed decides what can be recovered.
The three questions: did you type the official domain yourself, or follow a link, advert or message? Did anyone contact you first? Were you asked to pay a personal account or a different domain? If any answer is wrong, treat it as impersonation — and start here.
No — Lynx Broker is a real business: ČNB retail forex licence No. 02451778 verified (active since 28 Aug 2013) via WikiFX licence data; the parent LYNX B.V. (Utrecht) sits under AFM/DNB supervision, and the German branch operates under BaFin/AFM oversight (Curvo review, 3 Sep 2026; tradingfinder branch table, 9 Nov 2025). The scam stories you see online usually trace to fakes borrowing its name — and the ones that don't are part of our active investigation. But read the note above first — the business is real, and so are the caveats.
Yes — the Czech branch holds ČNB licence No. 02451778 (active since 2013), the Dutch parent is AFM-supervised, and the German branch sits under BaFin/AFM oversight. Multi-branch EU regulation, verifiable on each register.
Almost certainly not. Impersonators borrow the name, the logo, even the licence number. The real company knows nothing about it. Keep every message, receipt, URL and wallet address — that evidence is what an investigation builds on.
The domain you actually used, the date, and whether it was a card, a bank transfer, or crypto. Or the name of the person who told you to pay. Or one screenshot. Where the same payment shows up from other people, those files can sit together as a class action. The first look is free.
Type the official domain yourself — lynxbroker.cz — never follow a link from an advert, email or message. Then check the regulator's public register, which lists the firm's genuine website. If your domain differs by even one character, it was a fake.
