Unauthorised Firm Details

Name: Xtremetrades.info
Website: xtremetrades.info

What is xtremetrades.info and what they claim

According to its own website, xtremetrades.info markets itself as a UK‑based investment platform offering attractive returns through cryptocurrency and “digital asset investment management.”  Some of its claims include:

• They are “UK Based Registered Investment platform” with “license to trade financially.”

• They promise “profit up to 4%‑9% of your investment” or higher depending on the “plan.”

• Several “investment plans” are displayed with high yields over short periods (e.g. “Basic Plan — 10% after 24 hrs”)

• They present a physical address: “1 Knightsbridge Green, London, UNITED KINGDOM, SW1X 7QA.”

• They assert protections like “Advanced Security,” anti‑DDoS, “registered company,” and “regulated by FCA, ACRA.”

 

Warning signs and red flags

1. Regulatory warning from the UK FCA

On 6 February 2025, the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) issued a public warning stating:

“This firm may be providing or promoting financial services or products without our permission. You should avoid dealing with this firm and beware of scams.” FCA

That means the company is not authorized by FCA to offer or market regulated financial services in the UK. That is a major red flag.

2. Lack of credible licensing and verification

Multiple independent reviews point out that xtremetrades.info:

• Is unregulated it does not appear to hold any credible license from recognized bodies (FCA, SEC, ASIC, etc.).

• Makes claims (e.g. guarantee of profit, fixed returns) that legitimate brokers rarely make, especially without oversight.

• Is flagged by review sites as having a low trust rating or dangerous potential. For instance, SafelyWeb labels it “unsafe to use” and “low confidence rating.”

• Has a suspicious domain registration: the domain was registered recently (February 2024) and shows weak identity information.

• Has been flagged by watchdog sites as having unverifiable or misleading claims (e.g. claiming regulation by “ACRA” which is not further substantiated).

3. Unrealistic return promises and “too good to be true” plans

They promise extremely high returns e.g. 10% in 24 hours on “Basic Plan,” and even higher yields in “VIP” or “Professional” plans. Such promises of guaranteed, high, short‑term profits are classic traits of high‑yield investment programs or Ponzi‑like schemes.

4. Withdrawal difficulties and exit scamming risks

Reviewers and complaint sites often note that platforms like this typically:

• Delay or refuse withdrawal requests

• Demand extra “verification fees,” “taxes,” or “release fees” before allowing you to pull out funds

• Shut down or disappear altogether, leaving investors with no recourse

While I did not find verified public reports of specific individuals losing money to xtremetrades.info (in the sources I checked), the business model and warnings line up with known scam patterns.

5. Use of trust elements without substance

• They show a London address, regulatory names, and other professional imagery but provide no verifiable proof that those are real or correctly tied to their operation.

• Their claims to regulation (e.g. “licensed, regulated by FCA”) contradict the formal warning from the FCA that they are unauthorized.

• Their website is relatively new and has low transparency in ownership and identity typical of fraudulent operations

Conclusion & Final Assessment

While xtremetrades.info projects many of the trappings of a legitimate investment platform, the balance of evidence strongly suggests that it is a high risk, likely fraudulent scheme:

• It is unauthorized and unregulated, lacking credible licensing.

• It promises unrealistic, guaranteed returns.

• There are consistent reports of withdrawal failures and blocking of funds.

• The UK’s FCA has explicitly issued a warning against the firm.
