What the notices say

  • CySEC unauthorised-websites list: olymptrade.com, dated 21 June 2024. CySEC's 28 August 2025 warning again names olymptrade.com among sites that do not belong to an entity authorised under Law 87(I)/2017. An authorisation listing is not a criminal conviction.
  • Brazil's CVM, Declaratory Act 16.898, reiterated 29 March 2022: Smartex International LTD, also known as Olymp Trade, including www.olymptrade.com and olymptrade.com/pt-br, is not authorised to take Brazilian clients for binary-options operations.
Loss or this pattern

A trading loss and this pattern are not the same

A trading loss is a real position that moved against you. You can see the trade. The pattern below is a different event.

  • an account at olymptrade.com
  • a Smartex International LTD name on the paperwork
  • a short-expiry options balance and a fee before a payout
Our process

From digital shadow to admissible evidence

We investigate losses as a cybersecurity company. We turn the date, how you paid, and the public record into a file the bank, the card scheme, a lawyer, or the police can read. We do not replace those channels.

1

Free initial look and case triage

It starts with a conversation, not a contract. You send the date, how you paid, and any chat or screenshot you still have. We look at the digital footprint and tell you whether the file has something to investigate. The first look is free.

2

Digital tracing

We work from records, not guesses. Company registries and stated addresses. Regulator lists. The KYC/AML registration they used to stall a withdrawal — we read that paper trail; we do not complete it for them. If you paid in crypto, we trace and tag the wallets. Network artefacts: domains, servers, and the payment trail you already created.

3

The person behind the shell

Operators hide behind shell names and anonymous accounts. We map identity from the public record, the infrastructure, and your file: who controls the brand, which entities sit together, and which devices or logins appear in the trail.

4

The forensic report

Findings go into one chain-of-custody file: identity of the operator, the payment trail, domains and servers, and anything that ties an account or a device to the loss. The report is written so a lawyer, a judge, a bank, a card scheme, or a regulator can read it.

5

Where the file goes next

We tell you which desk the file belongs on — the bank or the card scheme, the police, a lawyer, or a regulator. We do not replace those channels. We investigate, we write the file, and we guide the next step.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is Olymp Trade a legit broker?

A first-tier register match, a licence you typed yourself, and a payout that reaches an account you own is one file. A screen balance and a fee to leave is another. Olymp Trade is the OlympTrade site at olymptrade.com, listed by CySEC and earlier named by Brazil's CVM. The notices are in the block above. Send the date and how you paid.

Is OlympTrade a scam?

Same desk as Olymp Trade. The notice prints OlympTrade. That is one unauthorised-firm listing, one review. The name people search is Olymp Trade. Send the date and how you paid.

Can you close my Olymp Trade 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 olymptrade.com. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as Olymp Trade.

Olymp Trade 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 investigate losses as a cybersecurity company. We place what you send next to the record above. We do not replace the bank, the card scheme, or the police. The first look at the file is free.

Is this an Olymp trade review?

Yes. Olymp trade review and OlympTrade are the same CySEC and CVM file for olymptrade.com. People also type Olymp trade is real or fake. The notices are in the block above. Send the date and how you paid.

Is Olymp trade real or fake?

CySEC lists olymptrade.com as not belonging to an authorised Cyprus firm. Brazil's CVM warned that Smartex International LTD / Olymp Trade is not authorised to take Brazilian clients for binary options. That is the public record, not a criminal conviction. An Olymp trade withdrawal review that describes a fee before a payout is the same pattern.

How does your process work?

Free look first: the date, how you paid, one screenshot. Then we trace registries, the KYC/AML paper used to stall a withdrawal, domains, servers, and — if you paid in crypto — the wallet trail, tagged. Then we write an identity, payment, domain and server report for the bank, the card scheme, a lawyer or the police. We do not replace those channels.
