What did Alphavista Exchange offer?
The address in this review is alphavistaexchange.com. The name alone is not enough to identify a recipient: keep the exact website, payment details and messages from the person who contacted you. A similar name is not proof of a connection.
The indexed homepage presented forex, cryptocurrency and CFD trading. CFDs are contracts linked to price changes; you do not necessarily own the underlying asset. Alongside that trading description, the page offered fixed-looking investment plans with a percentage for each trade and return of the original deposit at maturity.
The beginner plan displayed 15% per trade with a minimum of $500. Another, labelled momentum.official, displayed 300% per trade with a $1,000 minimum. That label does not establish that any social-media account or person endorsed the offer. The page did not make these figures a documented trading record. It also did not provide a clear calendar period for a trade, so they must not be described as daily returns.
Why the return figures matter
A percentage on a website is not money earned. If 300% means profit on $1,000, it means $3,000 of profit in one trade, before the separate promise to return the deposit. This is arithmetic explaining the advertised figure, not evidence of a payment or a realistic outcome.
The same page included a warning that CFD trading can lose all invested capital. That warning is relevant, but it does not explain how an investor could rely on the advertised return and repayment promises. Before any payment, the contract would need to explain who bears losses, how returns arise and when funds can actually be withdrawn.
Do the licence claims check out?
The site's regulation page claimed Seychelles FSA licensing, citing registration number 709718501. It also claimed CySEC authorisation and a Cyprus company number HE 19818009. These are the site's statements, not findings by either authority.
On 4 November 2026, the FSA capital-markets list and CySEC's Cyprus investment-firm list contained no match for Alphavista or those identifiers in the material checked. This is a register-check result, not an official warning against the site. A company-registration number is also different from permission to offer investment services.
For a genuine licence match, the legal entity, licence status, permitted activity and website must fit together. A certificate sent by a salesperson or a link to a regulator's homepage does not establish that match. Until the named authority's own record supports the claim, it is not a sound reason to entrust the site with money.
What about the $1 million insurance claim?
The indexed homepage advertised protection for customer funds up to $1 million. The displayed explanation did not name an insurer, policy number, covered events or a process for making a claim. Those details matter: insurance can cover a specific event without covering trading losses or a failed withdrawal.
Do not treat the headline amount as a repayment guarantee. Ask for the policy and verify it independently with the insurer through contact details found separately. The combination of extraordinary returns, unresolved licence claims and unexplained insurance is why we regard this offer as a possible scam. No court finding or verified total of customer losses is established by this review.
If you have already paid or cannot withdraw
Contact your bank, card issuer or sending exchange promptly. Give the date, amount and actual recipient. Explain why you suspect deception and ask which payment-dispute or fraud-reporting options apply. A card payment, bank transfer and cryptocurrency transfer have different possibilities; none guarantees recovery.
Save the payment receipt, transaction reference or blockchain transaction hash, account history, full website address, messages and the withdrawal request. If the website no longer opens, copies in email, downloads and your own messages can still help reconstruct what happened.
Ask the operator in writing for the status of your withdrawal, its contractual reason for any hold and the identity of the company responsible. Do not send an extra payment merely because someone says it will release your balance. Read our guide to a broker refusing a withdrawal for a fuller evidence checklist and reporting steps.
If someone offers to recover the money, check their identity and contract before paying. Our recovery-service checks explain the questions to ask. A claim that recovery is certain is not evidence that a person can deliver it.

FXJunction
fxjunction.com
FXJunction links traders to signal providers, but a broker account balance and FXJunction credits are different things. Its FAQ sets a $100 minimum for redeemable credits and excludes bonus credits. On 4 November 2026, the FAQ said providers keep 70%, or 80% for referred copiers, while the provider page promised 90%. Ask which terms apply to your account. This inconsistency and an old complaint justify scrutiny, but do not prove fraud.

HOS Broker / AtlasBrokerOption
hosbroker.site ws.hosbroker.site statsglt.hosbroker.site
HOS Broker searches lead to hosbroker.site, a trading page using several different names. Its withdrawal-policy link opens no policy, and its legal-page link returned an error. We consider these serious warning signs of possible fraud and would not deposit while the operator and withdrawal rules remain unclear.
