I started out with 250 USD and waited till I was around 500 USD. I then made a request to get 250 USD paid out but after 3 months and numerous phone calls, it never happened. At the end all of a sudden my account was 5300 USD “because of my manager” was making some trades that in a few days made a miracle of +900% in profits. But now came the “surprise” that I was to pay tax of 2.000 USD BEFORE being able to get out 4.000 – and that will never happen…I have seen the exact same scam at Status Markets (now closed), Cupiro and CT Matador – at the end the balance goes sky-high so that when you try to get some of this money out – typically more than half of YOUR investment, the tax scam comes up – even with false documents – one of them I actually sent one of them to the HMRC and they confirmed that it was a scam.
