Gold Fire Scam Warning: Fake Forex and Gold Trading

Gold is the investment people trust most in uncertain times, and the Gold Fire name targets exactly that trust. The scheme has been recorded as a platform that appeared on fake brokerage lists published in Asia and gathered customers with the promise of gold and currency trading.
🔍 Not to Be Confused with Companies of the Same Name
The domain goldfire.com belongs to a long-established software company that has nothing to do with investment services and has no connection with this scheme. The platform using the Gold Fire name does not show any known permanent address; changing domain names often to avoid detection is common in schemes of this kind. There is no firm authorised under the Gold Fire name in the SPK records.
🚩 The Trap Built on the Promise of Gold
- Customers are told "you are buying physical gold", yet the transaction is only a CFD position on a screen.
- With high leverage, small price movements are presented as large profits.
- When a withdrawal is requested, extra money is demanded under the name of "margin top-up" or tax.
SPK Decision No. 8/297 of 24 February 2017 treats offering a foreign leveraged trading platform to people in Türkiye as unauthorised activity.

- Mark Capital: the margin top-up excuseTR
