Potential Fraudster

Potential Fraudster.

Aleksander Knight (if that is even his real name) is, I suspect, a fraudster.

I started IGNITE back when it first launched on the VIP signals to gain access to the training. At first, content was good. Then IGNITE disappeared mysteriously, along with the content for some vague reasons of disagreeing with a business partner.

I am *still* getting billed for IGNITE due to some fabrication with Stripe. All I needed was an email from Alek so I could cancel the payment through Barclaycard. He promised me this simple email 4 months ago.. several meetings with “100% no fail attendance” were promised but I’ve only been met with excuses.

“I am literally dying” “I have asthsma” “My family surprised me with a BBQ” “I have mental health issues”

We all have issues, but when it becomes incompetence, it becomes noticeable.

Since then, Aleksandr moved onto "Funded by Forex" claiming some hate group have been following him and sabotaging his businesses. (This was a person who was boasting about having a trading floor of at least 4 people working for him.. back in mid 2021)

All in all, I had a bit of money across multiple “products”.
A trade for you option (secured by a loan agreement that might not be worth the code its written upon) a bot and a Forex challenge. The only thing that had a bit of value was the bot.. which I am now starting to think was just stolen.

I’m just glad I didn’t give him any more money.
As with other reviews here, when discussed with him about returning money, performance, and given him sympathy. Its not worth it.

No telephone number to contact. No stable email address (this constantly changes) and now no facebook presence at all. Just a deleted profile.

This guy is either a serial fraudster or just cannot run a business, so flutters from place to place trying to find new customers but never really looking after his existing.

If any police read this review as a part of a “hate group investigation” that he claims is against him. I encourage that officer to get in contact with me as I am a former police officer also.

FRAUD Alarm**

FRAUD Alarm**

This company is not registered. There is a lot of false information given and the contract agreement wasn't kept in any measure. Communication was poor. And the person gave false information on who he proclaims to be. Please stay away - you will not see any money back from this person.

SCAM! If this person owes you money report him to POLICE!

This person is a known Fraudster & scammer. Stay Away!! Sells trading software for £££, which is made by developers in Malaysia for $100. Besides, he offered to trade for you scheme where I paid this guy 10k after he promised I will receive 10% profit each month. Once I paid the money he was never seen again. He lied for 6 months before I investigated and found hundreds of people have been scammed for nearly a million pounds. Uses scam companies setup by him then crossed out by companies house. I never got any penny back, and I am now pursuing legal action to recover my money. Please make note his real name is Shay Bennett and uses the name of Aleksandr Knight online. Check companies house for company number 12348018, and you can see his real identity. I cannot disclose the details of investigation however if you are victim of this scam please contact police, Action Fraud, FCA & your Bank. Search Instagram with Aleksandrknight_scammer, and you can see all the truth.

Fraud

Fraud - I've been a memeber for 6 months, first three months signals were ok, another three not so good. That is not the problem. The problem was when I wanted to cancel, I didn't have that option on website or anywhere else. I've tried to contact support on website and in facebook group but nobody answerd. I then contacted Aleksandr Knigt on facebook who is the owner he said no problem but he didn't do it. My credit card was charged. I asked for refund he lied that he send it but he didn't and now ignoring my messages. Also the webpage and facebook group aren't available anymore.

Hi Tanja
Apologies for our slow reply, We can only apologise for this small hiccup.

I'm sorry you've felt like it was fraud behaviour, we was changing between processors and Stripe more often than not doesn't do well with batch api with our site - it is fixed now however.

Apologies again, if you ever wanted to give us another go please get in touch and you'll have free membership for life - no card info required.

Was struggling with forex trading…

Was struggling with forex trading sometime back and a friend recommended Ignite Trading Academy. I must say ever since I started with their lessons I have improved and I want to say a big thank you to them and that they should keep it up.

I’m blown away by the amount of effort…

I’m blown away by the amount of effort these guys put into making sure you’re in a good position to trade before even suggesting you start, I have had Aleksandr on socials for years and the dude makes money so joining was a no brainer. Highly recommend Ignite.

Surprised, but in a good way!

What can I say? When I first started Forex trading, like many others, I’d chase my losses by increasing my lot size to make up the losses from the day before which often ended badly.

Ignite showed me that it is more a mental game than anything and you have to stick to a consistent strategy.

The learning material on their site is perfect for entry forex traders who wants to understand the key parts of forex efficiently. It is really easy to digest due to the way it is all set up.

The training course comprises of short video clips that explains what and how to trade forex and then quizzes you on them straight after which re-enforces what you have just watched.

I have a full-time job and work part time on the weekends so I’d like to consider myself a relatively busy person and rather than spend hours every day for months only reading the ins and outs of forex in my free time without profit, with Ignite I’ve learnt the fundamentals of it within a month and saved what counts the most…Time.

The accessibility and layout are of a high standard and is accessible on all mobile devices.
What I find best now about the website is that it doesn’t just provide a training course, it provides you with everything you want all in one place: Suggested profitable signals, market research and upcoming news.

I’ve been in a paid trading group before and have been in a loss overall but with the Ignite team my profits are more than my losses, now of course all traders know that there will be days you’ll lose and days you’ll profit but Ignite… doesn’t want you to just sit there and copy trades, they want you to become a profitable forex trader and if it works out for you, you could trade forex as either a side hustle or do it full time.

To top this all of, they have a telegram VIP group chat and signal channel which has been a massive help.
