Octa Central Market Scam Warning: Unlicensed CFD Site

Octa Central Market is a platform that presents itself as a brokerage offering CFD trading on shares, gold, oil and indices. The site operated at both octalcentralmarket.net and octalcentralmarket.net.centralcapgroup.com; the second address is a subdomain hidden under another domain name.
🌐 Domain Names and Registration Details
octalcentralmarket.net was registered in September 2025, and centralcapgroup.com, used as the parent address, in February 2026. At the end of September 2026 both addresses showed the same page titled "CFD Trading"; in October the content was removed and the parent address was taken offline.
Although the platform's name recalls the global brokerage Octa (OctaFX), no link between the two operations is visible; the similarity appears aimed at borrowing trust.
📞 The Shared Phone Line
The FCA entry lists the address of a well-known business centre in Canary Wharf, London, and the number +1 702 706 4466. The same number is used by other investment sites under different names that the FCA listed on the same day.
The SPK announced in its decision No. 8/297 of 24.02.2017 that opening leveraged trading accounts through institutions based abroad is an unauthorised activity. Authorisation is checked through the SPK list of authorised intermediary institutions.
