{quote} Not sure there but in many countries in europe if people are charged with fraud, let's say in banking, and admit it (pledging guilty and paying a fine to escape jail), them may be also barred from banking activity for 10 years for example.
Meaning he's banned from participating in any financial Activities.

{quote} They could if they were taking US clients but they have not been in this case. Btw, they sued Tallinex and its owners for 12 million, got default in court but haven't been able collect anything so far. CFTC is not very keen anymore suing out of jurisdiction entities because in most cases it hasn't been very fruitful. They are more often sending cease and desist letters to brokers who sign up US clients. There are many off shore brokers who have been successfully operating and accepting for many years. The same will happen with props.
But probably enough for some people (owners, directors, etc.) get scared.

Because one thing is knowing that Burundi is prosecuting them. They would laugh at it.
Another thing is having giant US prosecuting, specially if that gets criminal with extradition treats, international warrants, etc.
Not nice to have to live the rest of their lives just circulating in countries without extradition treaties.

{quote} To Pay he does Pay for sure ,, Ever since ,l haven't heard of any trader complaining of not being Paid by MFF ,, Ever since l started trading with Them 3 years ago ,, it was Pretty shocking to me see these allegations on them and l guess everyone is too.
I'm not the least bit shocked, honestly, except on the part of STP customers having a mark-up on already real market spreads.

The rest of it we could imagine and suspected, and we discussed that a lot of times here, even strategies and turn arounds to try to be under the radar (radar is exactly what we see now written in the case - traders that get too much attention).

{quote} It will not be very difficult. Look at this forum itself many people are cheering because MyFF got caught and have luxurious life even though all of them heart to heart knows MyFF was paying honestly (I understand they have slippage issue but think of it as cost of running business). If MyFF is having so many haters almost all prop firms will have haters CFTC should not have any problem if they want to sue others.
If so few people achieve a payout it's normal that the majority are haters. It's a normal reaction of someone that lost money in challenges and need to blame someone.

We could use all arguments to condemn MFF but using the one of the lavish life is not rational. What if the guy gave all the profit to Red Cross and Unicef. Would that make things different ?

{quote} With my style you not going to try to achieve 100k account. It's rather having few 10k and trade it heavily, expecting profits 5-10% instead having 100k and going for regular 1-2% . Off course this way you will often loose accounts, but entry fee is so small than you just repeat and repeat.
I understand your point but I'm not sure about the repeat and repeat. Let's see if we still have time for that or if this great conditions will simply vanish.

One thing that I definitely regret right now if not having hit very strong and big some props, the more I could, very fast.

The risks I take are my own. I don't need any stinkin' 'protection.'
-This is why I strongly advocate for an opt-out clause. If government allowed its citizens the ability to opt-out of various regulatory protections, then it would open so many doors from a trading and investment standpoint.

But why that will likely never happen? Because it does not benefit certain groups here.

{quote} I mean , have dual citizenship. Vast here in Canada have dual citizenship, as you know canada is basically immigrant country
Dual citizenship is not sufficient. You will find that the broker requires proof of RESIDENCY: Documents such as recent bank statement, utility bill, those sort of things. How are you going to get your name on a utility bill in a country where you do not reside???

Saw this in telegram. I have no idea who they are and what they do or if this rumour could even be true. I'm sure a lot of fake stuff is flying around these days. {quote}

Interestingly enough the same restrictions don't apply to well off people as they can trade forex freely abroad. Only the poor are being protected.

For me l really trusted MFF so much to such an extent that it was the only Prop firm l was using , they Paid me right no issues at all , l was so Happy with them ,, but now this ,, talking to you right now l don't have a cent not even a trading account ,, am broke as a trader it's shocking.
they Paid me right no issues at all , l was so Happy with them ,, but now this ,, . . . l don't have a cent not even a trading account ,, am broke
Hmmm. They paid you, but now you're broke. So with that kind of personal money mangement, it's surprising that your trading money management resulted in even getting a funded account.

Most immigrants who come from Asia will have dual citizenship. And further more they will have legal address.

At the worst case, they will go for it.
