At first

At first, ALGOPLUS TRADERS pitched what seemed like a solid opportunity to make some extra money. They claimed to be pro traders, offering account management services with consistent returns. I figured, why not let them trade my cTrader account while I focus on work?

From the jump, they told me not to log into my account—said something about “IP address syncing issues” that would interfere with their trades. That should’ve been the first sign they were hiding something.

Eventually, I logged in. And what I found? A withdrawal that I never saw a dime of. They never mentioned it, never explained it—and I’ve been with them since January. All this time and my account is barely up 3%. So not only are they NOT delivering profits, they’re withdrawing money behind the scenes?

To make it worse, they don’t even trade consistently. I had to keep reminding them to trade my account like they forgot it even existed. No strategy, no transparency, just vague promises and excuses. And my biggest account dont even exist on cTrader the platform they use to place orders

And when I finally started asking questions about the missing money and their shady behavior—they deleted the Telegram chat. Gone. No warning. No answers. Just vanished.

This is classic scam behavior: isolate you from your own account, feed you lies, touch your money, then disappear when called out.

If you see ALGOPLUS TRADERS or anyone offering “account management” over Telegram or IG with no license, no visibility, and no accountability—run. It’s all a setup.

Stay smart. Don’t get finessed by these clowns.

100% scammers

These people are 100% scammers! Now going under the name "ExpertFunded" I purchased their program set it up through a site they own, "they" managed my account, so it seemed and it appeared that I had made money. I then requested a payout and it never came! I kept asking them when the payout would come and they said about 2 weeks. Well, over 3 months have come and gone, I asked again when my payout would be released, and they said it's coming or they would ask "the other company" (they own) it's been over 3 months since I requested a payout and it has never come and they have quit responding to my requests.

Be very cautious of this company and anyone promoting their services…

Be very cautious of this company and anyone who is promoting their services / prop firm accounts. I have accounts with them and have applied for pay outs. There website notes that they will take no more that 5 days to process the pay out.

5 days have well passed and still nothing. I have emailed their Support email address several times and still no reply - it would seem as though they are purposefully ignoring me.

I have also asked several times, times the group who promoted them, to ask Skillful Traders what is happening with my pay out and they too, seem to be evading my question.

Be very cautious. Perhaps considering more well reputable prop firms may be the way to go.

THEY ARE NOW TRADING AS "EXPERT TRADERS" AND ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL EXCEPT ONE OF MY ACCOUNTS HAVE BEEN ACTIONED AS FAILED DUE TO UNSPECIFIED VIOLATIONS. STILL ALOS NO PAYOUTS RECIEVED AFTER 3 WEEKS OF WAITING, EVEN THROUGH THEIR WEBSITES STATES THAT IT TAKES NO MORE THAN 5 DAYS TO PROCESS.

I WOULD STRONGLY SUGGEST BEWARE OF USING THEM OR ANY OF THEIR ASSOCIATES.

Big scam

Big scam. Also LeoSMC/ BilzSMC / AlgoplusAI / TradingPlus. They all work together. They don’t even trade on the accounts, but do a demo transfer of money to increase the balance. And they don’t pay out. I’ve been waiting for a payout since January, but at first they are telling you they’re working on it and after a couple of weeks they just don’t respond anymore.

This company is a TOTAL SCAM!!

This company is a TOTAL SCAM!!! You pay for the prop firm challenge and they make believe that you passed it. They never give a payout but try and get you to buy another challenge. They even have you verify KYC! They have a very convincing AD on Telegram..Don't trust them..RUN

No payout

I have passed the challenge phase with skilful traders without a problem. They funded me the 200 K and they’re an after I have been trading and awaiting my first payout after 21 days as agreed, I have now been waiting for 2 weeks for my payout where it says pending .
when I email them they just advise me that they’re doing checks and the last email I’ve had no response back from them.
So it looks like now that I will not be receiving my payout which is upsetting after all the work that’s been put in and money to pay for the challenge.
I’ve traded proper firms in the past on average it takes 2-4 Days for them to issue the payout I wouldn’t advise trading with this company. Something is wrong and they’re not trustworthy. I would advise trading with other trusted prop firms stay well away from skilful traders.

There is no prop firm.... fake

Members. Both Skillfultraders and TradingPLus work together. There is no prop firm..

Most of you might be working with “TradingPlus” guys… you bought one or more accounts…

The deposits you see on your demo, are not trades! It's just deposits to make you belive it's profits.... have you seen any real trades on your CTRADER account summary? No! This is all fake deposits. Good look in trying to ask for payout.

I have proof of the whole scam. I am trying to alert people…. Don’t buy challenges here. Don’t give TradingPlus guys any money. You got scammed
