Global Secure Trade Review 2026: FCA Warning on globalsecuretrade.org

Global Secure Trade

Global Secure Trade operates from globalsecuretrade.org using the address of a real Century City office tower in Los Angeles (801 Century Park East, CA 90067) without a floor or suite number and no verifiable business registration under this brand. The FCA issued a warning on 23 February 2026. The triple trust-word brand stack (global, secure, trade) combined with a prestigious real-world address is designed to maximise legitimacy perception while minimising accountability.

Easy Option Trade Review 2026: FCA Warning on easyoptiontrade.live

Easy Option Trade

Easy Option Trade operates from easyoptiontrade.live using 20-22 Wenlock Road, London -- a registered-office address cluster previously flagged in FCA-warned operations including others already in this directory. The FCA issued a warning on 12 March 2026. The same Wenlock Road address plus the same .live TLD pattern identifies this as part of a recurring funnel template.

Crypto Pilot Bot Review 2026: FCA Warning on cryptopilotbot.com

Crypto Pilot Bot

Crypto Pilot Bot operates from cryptopilotbot.com with an Isle of Man address that implies regulatory oversight without triggering any. The FCA issued a warning on 15 October 2025. The IoM address is offshore jurisdictional theater -- the Isle of Man has its own regulator (IoM FSC) and the FCA warning confirms this firm holds no authorisation from either.

ForexAlgo AI Review 2026: FCA Warning on forexalgo.ai

ForexAlgo AI

ForexAlgo AI operates from forexalgo.ai, distributing exclusively through Facebook with no verifiable physical office address. The FCA issued a warning on 5 November 2025, updated 17 March 2026. The .ai TLD and triple category-stack brand (forex + algo + AI) capture trading search intent while the Facebook-only funnel eliminates accountability.
