Is TradeMarket247 a scam?

Yes. Two financial regulators published warnings about TradeMarket247 during 2026, and the operation has since disappeared without returning client funds.

The two warnings

• FSCA, South Africa, February 2026. A public warning naming Trade Market 247 and its website, stating it is not authorised to provide financial services to the public. The FSCA recorded that it solicited funds through WhatsApp, and that the authority could not reach it using the contact details the firm itself published.
• DFSA, Dubai, 7 July 2026. "TRADEMARKET FZCO is not and has never been authorised by the DFSA to provide Financial Services (including Managing a Collective Investment Fund or Fund Administration)."

It put the regulator's name in the contract

The DFSA alert records that investor contracts stated the fund was "subject to the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) and its supplementary regulations".

A regulator named in a website footer is marketing. A regulator named in a signed contract is aimed at the person who reads the document before transferring money, which is to say the more careful investor rather than the less careful one.

The DFSA checked two registers and reported both: no company named TRADEMARK is registered in the DIFC, and no investment fund called PERSONAL is registered with the DFSA.

The site is gone

Checked on 12 September 2026: trademarket247.com now serves a Chinese-language video streaming site with no connection to the broker. The domain was most likely allowed to lapse and re-registered by somebody else.

Do not contact the current site and do not enter any details there. It has nothing to do with your money.

What to do if you deposited

1. Collect your bank and card statements, every email, every WhatsApp thread with the number that contacted you, and any account screenshots. Your records are now the only evidence.
2. Ask your bank about a chargeback, citing the FSCA and DFSA warnings by date. Many schemes run the window from when you realised the service would not be provided, not from the payment date.
3. Request a recall on any bank transfer, and record the receiving addresses for any crypto.
4. Report it to the FSCA, the DFSA and your local fraud reporting body, even though the firm has vanished. Reports are how one operation gets linked to its next name.
5. Refuse any approach offering to recover the money for a fee. That is the second fraud, and it usually arrives soon after the first.

What this does not mean

This review makes no claim about individual trades or about what any specific person experienced. It is the public record: two dated regulator warnings, a regulator's name asserted in client contracts, two register searches that returned nothing, and a domain that no longer hosts the business.
