PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: FX Trading Corp warning


This morning I received a message asking my thoughts about a "business opportunity" being presented by a company called FX TRADING CORP. The sender of the message decided I was a suitable person to help him assess the opportunity because of my background with cryptocurrencies as the opportunity claims that "It's involved in CRYPTOTRADING/MINING of cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoincash & Litecoin, and forex trading".

I wish to advise anybody who may be interested in taking up this so called opportunity to STAY CLEAR of it. RUN!!!

The business model in itself does not make sense for the same reasons I expressed in an article I wrote a while ago which you can find here - https://cryptotamanga.blogspot.com/2018/07/bitclub-network-bcn-investment-black.html

What is more, at the moment the business of mining cryptocurrencies is not profitable due to a number of factors mainly the low price of crypto. Additionally, any investment opportunity that guarantees a fixed return on investment ought to be approached with great caution. For me some red flags are 1) you are buying a "package", 2) You are handing over money to a company and it will take 3 months for you to get your money back, 3) Of course there is the recruitment side of the business which always makes any such business difficult to hack.

My advice? If you want to invest in cryptocurrency do it on your own. You could 1) Buy and hold, 2)Learn how to trade on your own. You do not need to hand over your hard earned money to another individual. 

For more FREE advise about cryptocurrencies, that is, what they can and cannot do for you please get in touch with me.

P.S: I DO NOT SELL CRYPTO (BITCOIN) PACKAGES
