FCA Identifies fstrade.market as an Unauthorised Firm

On 2 October 2026, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) published an official warning identifying the following details:

1. Name: fstrade.market
2. Website: www.fstrade.market
3. United States address: 11 Grace Avenue, Suite 108, Great Neck, New York 11021
4. United Kingdom address: 1 Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London E14 5AB
5. Telephone: 7027064466
6. Regulatory status: Not authorised by the FCA

The regulator states that almost all businesses providing or promoting regulated financial services in the UK must obtain the appropriate authorisation or registration.

fstrade.market does not have that authorisation.

The FCA also cautions that unauthorised businesses may publish incorrect contact information or use details belonging to other organisations to create an appearance of legitimacy.

Consequently, the addresses and telephone number associated with fstrade.market should be regarded as details reported in the regulatory warning, not independently verified evidence of a genuine business presence.

Why Investors Should Avoid fstrade.market

The warning establishes that fstrade.market operates without the UK authorisation required for regulated financial activities.

This is particularly concerning when an operation solicits deposits, promotes financial products or encourages consumers to transfer money on the understanding that their funds will be professionally managed.

A website’s appearance cannot establish its legitimacy. Neither can an investment dashboard displaying account balances, trading activity or claimed profits.

According to the FCA, consumers dealing with fstrade.market will not have access to the Financial Ombudsman Service for complaints against the firm.

They will also lack Financial Services Compensation Scheme protection if the firm fails.

The regulator separately notes that certain eligible victims of fraudulent payments made on or after 7 October 2024 may benefit from payment protections introduced by the Payment Systems Regulator. Eligibility depends on the payment circumstances and applicable rules.

For investors, the important distinction is between figures displayed on a website and funds that can actually be verified through independent financial records.

Already Sent Money to fstrade.market?

If you have transferred money or cryptocurrency to fstrade.market, preserve your evidence immediately.

Relevant evidence includes:

i. Bank-transfer confirmations and card-payment receipts

ii. Cryptocurrency transaction hashes and transaction IDs

iii. Sending and receiving wallet addresses

iv. Cryptocurrency exchange withdrawal records

v. Emails, WhatsApp messages and other communications

vi. Names, telephone numbers and contact information used by representatives

vii. Screenshots showing account balances, deposits and claimed profits

viii. Withdrawal requests, rejected transactions and explanations for delays

ix. Additional payment demands, invoices or wallet instructions

These records can help reconstruct the transaction history and identify the institutions, payment channels or cryptocurrency addresses involved.

If you paid through a bank or card provider, report the suspected fraud immediately and ask about payment recalls, disputes and reimbursement eligibility.

Where cryptocurrency was involved, blockchain analysis may help identify subsequent transfers, intermediary wallets and connections to identifiable services. However, tracing a transaction does not automatically establish that the funds remain available for recovery.

Do Not Pay Additional Withdrawal or Verification Charges

If fstrade.market demands further payments for taxes, verification or withdrawal fees, do not send more money. Such demands are common in investment scams. Preserve the payment requests as evidence and never disclose your banking passwords, wallet seed phrases or private keys.

ChainTraceAid Assessment of fstrade.market

The official regulatory warning provides substantial grounds for concern.

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) identifies fstrade.market as unauthorised, warns that it may be targeting UK consumers and explicitly advises the public to avoid dealing with the firm.

ChainTraceAid considers fstrade.market a suspected scam operation and advises consumers to avoid the website. This is ChainTraceAid’s risk assessment; the regulator’s published finding is that the firm is unauthorised.

For anyone who has already suffered financial losses, the immediate priority is to establish a reliable record of the payments, identify the receiving accounts or wallets, and assess which financial, institutional or legal recovery channels may be available.

Early action is particularly important where bank recalls, payment disputes or preservation of records may be time-sensitive.
