Tractus Trade (tractustrade.pro) Scam Warning: FCA Listed

Tractus Trade is a platform at tractustrade.pro that offers investment services and that the FCA, the UK financial authority, added to its list of unauthorised firms on 5 November 2026. The site dresses its investment offer up as an "AI academy" and uses the name of an unrelated British chamber of commerce.
🔍 What Has Been Found About tractustrade.pro
- Domain: tractustrade.pro was registered in August 2026 with the owner's details hidden.
- Official warning: the FCA stated that the firm may be providing or promoting financial services without authorisation; no telephone number, email address or address was published in the warning.
- False corporate framing: the page title uses the wording "AI Academy - British Chambers of Commerce"; the British Chambers of Commerce has no connection with this site.
- Sister site: Argentum Trade (argentumtrade.pro), which received an FCA warning on the same day, is online with an identical title and template; the two addresses appear to be parts of the same scheme.
🚩 The Scheme Behind the Academy Image
In schemes of this kind, an "education" or "AI academy" front makes the investment offer look legitimate, and the names of foreign institutions are used to build trust. The person is started with a small amount and profit is shown on the dashboard. When a withdrawal is requested, new payments come up under the names of tax, commission or account verification; as the FCA also notes, transactions with such firms carry no compensation protection.

🧭 The Legal Process for Victims
SPK Decision No. 8/297 of 24 February 2017 announced to the public that leveraged transactions carried out through overseas entities fall outside the Board's protection. In these cases the process usually begins at the criminal complaint stage and continues with an asset investigationTR into the accounts to which the money was transferred.
