I was afraid of being scammed but I ended up being scammed by Globventures. I started with £200 and was pressurised to increase the amount. I invested £2500, then another £2500 and then another £2500. I was told that was not sufficient and I should have invested £10000 if I wanted to make any serious money. I then invested another £10000. I was reassured I could limit my losses. Every week they gave me a trade to set up and I made a profit of £800 to £1200 per week. I was happy with the progress and support. They continued to pressurise me to invest more money but I refused as I felt the investment should support itself as I was in it long term. Then 3 months later I was told to enter some open trades which I eventually did but then realised they were very high risk trades with no explanations other than to trust them when I raised some concerns. That was the beginning of the end. I was then passed to another staff member and over the next 2 - 3 months lost everything- £17700. Since then they have not responded to my emails, phone calls or returned my request for a chat online. I also discovered they are not registered with the Financial Conduct Authority. This means they are not monitored and so get away with duping people of their hard earned money.
