Company Review
The identify of the website owner has been hidden. This may be done for a valid reason as spammers use this information to email website owners. Unfortunately is also makes identification of the owner difficult. We prefer if the website does show his true identity.
Investing in oil, gold, foreign currencies and such has always been a high-risk endeavor. This website seems to offer content and possible also services in this area. Please make sure you are not investing in a scam. Check our article on How to check if a forex or investment site is legit or a scam?.
We found markers on this website promising an easy way to make a profit. Our experience is that investment opportunities with high returns are also likely to have a very high-risk portfolio. There does not exist a "guaranteed income" or "secure profit". Please invest time to research this company further before investing your money. Our article "High Risk Financial Investment Scams" can help.
We think this website may be a High Yield Investment Program, also called HYIP site. Most HYIP sites are Ponzi schemes where people invest money and the money is used partly to pay rent to earlier investors. nearly all participants (apart from the admin owner of the website, loses money in the end. Our blog post "What are HYIPs and what are their risks?" discusses this kind of websites in more detail.
This website, which appears to provide banking, money lending, stock trading, and other financial services, is hosted on a shared server. An attacker might use one compromised website on the same server as a portal to all other websites on the same server if you employ a shared server for such data-sensitive services. We advise you to think twice about using this website's services because the personal information you enter on it, and consequently, your device, could be hacked.
We have received a warning from iQ Abuse Scan that smartfxzone.com may be involved in sending out large volumes of emails and/or text messages. The site has been reported for spamming. Depending on the country, spamming is considered illegal or at least dubious. The trust score of this website has been reduced as a result.
Webshop Review
The Tranco ranking of this website is low. This can be considered low in relation to other websites from the website's country. If you think this website should be very popular, please invest additional time in researching the company as this is suspicious. For a smaller or starting website a low ranking can be considered normal.
We lowered the smartfxzone.com review score as we found several websites on the same server with a low trust score. Online scammers have a tendency to set-up multiple malicious websites on one server, sometimes more than hundreds. You can see which websites we found under the "Server" tab on this page.
Cryptocurrency related information and/or services were detected on this website such as digital exchanges, bitcoin-mining or investments into crypto-coins. These digital valuta services are very difficult to judge. Unfortunately, many crypto-sites prove to be scams. We recommend you read our article How to check if a cryptocurrency site is legit or a scam..
This website was set-up recently. As a result, we advise you to really take the time to check this site out before you interact with it. You can use our blog post "How to recognize a scam" to do so. Scam sites are often very young. They are removed from the web after a couple of months as too many consumers leave negative reviews and social media comments. Till that time, they will try to scam you.
Technical Review
We diminished the review score of the website as it is using registrar facilities also used by many websites with a low to very low review score. High end domain registration bureaus have an extensive "Know your customer" process. This is unattractive for online scammers. It may be bad luck that so many websites with a low trust score reside at this registrar but we reduced the trust rating of the website to be sure.
We identified an SSL certificate meaning that the data shared between your browser and the website is encrypted and cannot be read by others. SSL certificates are always used by legit and safe websites. Unfortunately scammers increasingly also use SSL certificates so it is no guarantee that you are visiting a reliable website.

As the influence of the internet rises, so does the prevalence of online scams. There are fraudsters making all kinds of claims to trap victims online - from fake investment opportunities to online stores - and the internet allows them to operate from any part of the world with anonymity. The ability to spot online scams is an important skill to have as the virtual world is increasingly becoming a part of every facet of our lives. The below tips will help you identify the signs which can indicate that a website could be a scam. Common Sense: Too Good To Be True When looking for goods online, a great deal can be very enticing. A Gucci bag or a new iPhone for half the price? Who wouldn’t want to grab such a deal? Scammers know this too and try to take advantage of the fact. If an online deal looks too good to be true, think twice and double-check things. The easiest way to do this is to simply check out the same product at competing websites (that you trust). If the difference in prices is huge, it might be better to double-check the rest of the website. Check Out the Social Media Links Social media is a core part of ecommerce businesses these days and consumers often expect online shops to have a social media presence. Scammers know this and often insert logos of social media sites on their websites. Scratching beneath the surface often reveals this fu
So the worst has come to pass - you realise you parted with your money too fast, and the site you used was a scam - what now? Well first of all, don’t despair!! If you think you have been scammed, the first port of call when having an issue is to simply ask for a refund. This is the first and easiest step to determine whether you are dealing with a genuine company or scammers. Sadly, getting your money back from a scammer is not as simple as just asking. If you are indeed dealing with scammers, the procedure (and chance) of getting your money back varies depending on the payment method you used. PayPal Debit card/Credit card Bank transfer Wire transfer Google Pay Bitcoin PayPal If you used PayPal, you have a strong chance of getting your money back if you were scammed. On their website, you can file a dispute within 180 calendar days of your purchase. Conditions to file a dispute: The simplest situation is that you ordered from an online store and it has not arrived. In this case this is what PayPal states: "If your order never shows up and the seller can't provide proof of shipment or delivery, you'll get a full refund. It's that simple." The scammer has sent you a completely different item. For example, you ordered a PlayStation 4, but instead received only a Playstation controller. The condition of the item was misrepresented on the product page. This could be the
