Over the course of the past year beginning in June of 2016, AskOption in particular Austin Malone (Fake name I am sure), lured me in to a scam. The scan purported to earn 5-10x what normal investments would in a shorter period by trading on their platform. Initial cash contributions were accepted by CC, then wire transfers as the earnings balance became larger and larger.
Funding: June 2016 (1,000 USD/7800 EUR), August 2016 (2,000 USD/ 3000 USD), September 2016 (Wire 50,000 USD), November 2016 (Wire 33,000 USD, Wire 13,000 USD), March 2017 (Wire 98,400 USD), May 2017 (Wire 145,000 USD. During the process the money situation was getting tight and they gave me an award of a MacBook Pro and it was delivered to my home in Germany. All of the funding transfers were pressure driven to participate in a special offer.
In the time that I was conversing with Austin, he touted he was the VIP Broker in charge of all the other brokers and would use many buzz words related to investing and credible investors.
In March of 2017, an IPO was published on the website and by the fake brokers. The IPO was supposed to be out in March 2017 but never happened, it was pushed to September 2017 because in their search for investors Austin Malone said that Berkshire Hathaway had expressed interest in the company IPO and didn't want to go forward until they could secure a large investor thereby increasing the value of the company. He indicated after the last wire, that I had qualified to be moved to an investor vs. a retail trader. With the move up to investor, there were to be many perks that would be outlined in the Terms and Conditions. I asked for a copy of the T&C and was told I couldn't get one until I was vetted by Tony Novak. He fiddled around with the AMG and wouldn't deliver it to my home. It had to be presented at the photo op at the IPO. I June 2017 I had to provide a copy of my family trust to them so the "Tax Lawyers" could disburse my earnings with the lowest tax rate. In June there was supposed to be a Road show to Omaha, NE (B.H.) and to do the legal paperwork and NDA, Los Angeles, CA, Las Vegas NV, and New York, NY. Travel was pushed due to the above slip to the right. Discussed payout required by B.H. T&C that all trading accounts had to be closed and all proceeds and investments in the account would be sent to the "Trust Bank" account. That totaled to $ 848,000 USD. Tony Novak never contacted me to interview as an investor.
Needless to say the October timeframe came up and no airline tickets, no itinerary, not anything. The payout never happened either. After the Road show should have been done, I sent emails to Austin, but they bounced back and others there were no replies. The two phone numbers we had on record, rang thru and someone answered and took a message for Austin. I conducted research on the NASDAQ website and never found any IPO or Roadshow for any of the aliases that Ask Option (Austin Malone) used. My next move is to go to the FBI and file grand larceny and fraud against this company and these players.
Hello this is a warning to anyone looking to get into binary options.if there are brokers preassuring you into making bigger and bigger deposits,its a scam.this company ask option,does that exact thing.they will promise you 20-30k per month for minimal deposits,then they give you trade so you start winning,and ask for more deposit.their famous saying is (watch what i can do for you by the end of the month)donot deposit a dime with this company.you will never see it again.they will tell you to trade on signals that they get.that is a lie,they dont have any signals,and if the do,they have a losing record.which goes in their favor because of the supposedly (risk Free TRADES)that is the scam.they dont tell you by using risk free trades that you will not be able to withdraw your earnings untill you make trades exceeding 30 times more than the risk free bonuses that you got because their brokers suck at giving trades.
they claim to have over 80% winning rates.that is not the case at all.i dont think they could provide a 10% win rate if their life depended on it.their site is so far off,when you place a bid on a certain currencey,your bid will be a few numbers off of the time you place.the site is non accurate.your bid will vary by 5-10 points either way.so if you bid on a currencey going high,the time you bid will be 5-10 numbers higher than where that particular currencey was at the bid time. resulting in inaccurate trading platform that provides unethical forms of preassure to try and get their clients to deposit more and more money. they claim that their askoption business is in the process of getting regulated,and also in the process of being the only binary options broker to be on the london stock exchange.when you deposit into this company,your deposit will go to a bank in poland,to a company that has an address in Hong kong,But they claim to be from london uk.with a us number 1-646-757-1536 us new york,new york number.they claim that this is their london uk number +44-2035198515 they will give you losing trades on purpose,so that they can offer you risk free trades.they dont tell you that the risk free trade is a bonus.when ever you accept a bonus,you have to trade 30 times more volume than the bonus was for,in order to withdraw any money.conclusion this company is not a company that anyone would want to do business with.as their website is full of lies,and misleading clients,from start to finish. i would absolutley not recommend this company to my worst enemy,nevermind someone i know
If you're thinking of trading binary options, stay away from these people. They will take your money, show you supposed profits when they trade, and when you try and make a withdrawal, you'll be out of luck. If you call, you'll talk to guys like "Ronald" with a Russian accent, telling you that he will contact your "broker" and please expect a call. There won't be any calls--ever. He (or she) won't be able to answer any other questions with the standard line of "it's out of my expertise". Whatever you do, don't even think of doing business with these thieves.
I can’t believe this happened to me because i just decide to give it try, I was reading about cryptocurrency because i am really interested in investing in cryptocurrency because from the books i’ve read…The digital currency is the future, I saw the bitcoins price and it is way too steep for me financially so i had to read some books about trading because that’s the only way to acquire bitcoins since it’s high. I tried to trade on my own but didn’t go through then i began to look for a trader online. I got to a forum on youtube and i get to see everyone giving testimonies of how the Mr William lee helped them trade bitcoins in less than 3 days. I read some reviews on youtube and i decided to continue doing my research, I got to a forum on disqus and other websites as well and i couldn’t get enough of the Mr William testimonies. I am just seeing his emails everywhere and how he help families and more. I decided to give it a try and had to go for his lowest package at first because i am nervous. Then Mr William lee help me trade 1.3223 btc in less than 4 days and i am ready to invest the whole 1.3223 btc with him again so i can get 6 BTC. I just have to drop this here because i saw his info online and i am on my way to be financially free for the rest of my life. I don’t want to be selfish…. You all should contact Mr William below via email [email protected] and he will get back to you in no time. You will thank me later for this great info whatsapp +14086012169
My broker Victoria pomised to wire my withdrawal request the end of June, nothing. I have called, sent emails and no reply back after over 6 weeks. When i do get through by phone the same guy says i will send your request to your broker and expect a call shortly. He says the same thing over and over and can not answer one question I ask. Told him i could not see my balance on my account and was told they were working on the site. Today i can not even log into my account , does not show my name or my account. I needed this money since i quit my job which i had to do. Lies after lies, last time my balance was over 120 thousand and now cant even see it or my info. What to do now?
My wife and I got a call from a representative from Askoption and he said his name was Karl Butter at [email protected], and he pressured us to deposit $50,000, but we were able to deposit $6,000, in two different accounts and the account was taken over by one Victoria Leo. we raised our winnings to up to $174,000. We wanted to make a withdrawal of $12,000, and were denied, so I ask that we get our $6,000 deposits back, but they refused to refund our $6,000. We need help. One of the accounts is under: [email protected]
I invested $1250 in Binary options trading and made $1408 over the course of a few trading sessions with a broker. After that the PRESSURE was applied to invest more, like $100K, and I said I was not interested. Several times I was called to invest more and after declining several times the broker no longer called to try to get me to invest more. I asked for my investment to be returned to me and they wired me my $1250. I then decided to close my account and have tried to get my remaining balance but nothing happens. I have tried to do this several times and silence is the result. I think this whole process is a scam and do not advise anyone to invest with this company!
As mentioned previously, ASk Option will not wire my profit of $745.32 to my bank. I have been trying to get it for almost 6 months now.They ignore my calls and emails. When winning, they manipulate the strike rates and add delays to trades, causing trades that should win or tie, lose. I have documentation. Porter Finace, also, is not wiring my profit of $430 to my bank. This strike rate rigging has also happened at Tropical Trade, CT Optins, Dalton Finance. Seems they all scam US customers. Many stories to tell about ther lies, and documentation. Hope you can help. Please advise.
I am reporting a scam of the first magnatude in the binary options. AskOptions is that kind of scam operation. They will take your money and build on your account so called earnings and in my case, when I asked to withdraw my earnings he said that I must send monies through their bank "a Polish bank, to open a path to send monies back to my US account by way of wired money. A $10,000 is the minumum amount the bank will handle. I did send the $10,000 to said bank and my account indicates that it was received, but now my broker will not release a withdrawal and will not even talk to me. I suppose that I will never see any of the money that is indicated in my account.
I am writing to make people aware of the company Ask Option. They specialize in Binary Trading and options. After listening to a 40 online ad I decided to try this company. I have been cautious of these companies before. However, this appeared to be different. They ask for an initial deposit of $250 by credit card and was informed I would be contacted by a broker.
I received contact quickly. I was told my broker would be Ben and he would help me along and would grow the account. The trading was in currencies. He asked me my goals and informed me it would take only 2-3 months to reach my goals. Within one week he was able to increase the initial $250 to $1250.
At this time he stated if I could wire $5000 to the company, it would be deposited into my acccount and the trades would be larger and better payoffs. The wire went to Autum Leaf Intenational Limited to their bank in Warsaw, Poland. However, their address is in Kowloon, Hong Kong.
As a bonus for depositing the money, I received an additional $3000 into my account and was given credit for 7 trades if the trade did not profit. Within 7 weeks the account was up to $26,545. My broker would contact me daily and he would tell me what to trade or he would trade for me. He also knew I needed to have the $5000 returned to me to pay back into my bank account at this time.
This is when I stopped hearing from Ben. I would contact Askoption daily on the computer and each day they ask how they can help you. You reply you would like to have your broker contact you and they, in turn, reply he will get in touch with you as soon as he can.
I went 4-5 weeks without hearing from him. Each time I would ask for help I received the same reply. He would get in touch with me as soon as he can. It did not matter who you were emailing to. All the receptionists or brokers did not call.
After the holidays I did receive an email from Ben stating he had been out of the country working for Askoption on an IPO for stocks. He stated he would get in touch with me in a couple of days. Well, it has been 6 weeks and nothing.
I have requested a withdrawal 5 times. They take your money and do not give it back. I have been scammed and there is nothing I can do because they do not call or contact you via the internet. And I feel cheated, embarrased and used.
Beware, do not do any business with this company. Someone, a really good lawyer needs to help us out for this scam.
Ask Option Binary Option Broker at askoption.com will not let me withdraw my own money.
Here is my current balance as of 01/16/17
Total pending withdrawals amount: $11,727.00
Amount available to withdraw: $11,727.95
Current balance: $11,727.95
All i originally wanted was $5,000 and their website reads it takes about 5 days for a withdrawel.
I submited the withdrawel on 01/05/17. Now today as of this post it is 11/16/17.
Because of this I now want al of my mpney.
After you submit a "withdrawel" you receive this email
"Dear MARY BO...
Out financial deparmtent is aware that recently you requested a withdrawal.
We will consider your demand and we will reply you shortly.
Please expect news from our side regarding your issue.
"
So i own my own money and they say that they will “consider” giving it to me. They even admit they just may rip you off and not pay their customers what is rightfully theirs.
I have sent several emails and they are never answered. My broker called me once, and gave many excuses that i dont even remember what they were.
I really thought ask option was legitimate. However it turns out that they are not even licensed.
I emailed them many times stating i would file complaints online and they ignore all of my emails meaning they just do not care.
My compliant is almost indentical to the guy who filed on 09/11/2016. After signing up for a account with Option Robot, their website directed me to sign up with a selection of two Brokers, Binarybook.com and Askoption.com. After reading nothing but bad customer reviews on BinaryBook.com. I decided to try Askoption because the only review that I could find of any type was the Bad review found here.
As soon as I signed up from Option Robot, I immediatley got severals calls from agents from Askoption, trying to rush me into depositing money, lying that they were a licensed and regualted broker and trying to trick me into accepting free trade days and bonus money. I was successful in refusing these tricks. AS I was attempting to make by $250 deposit via credit card, I got a call from mary at Askoption, telling me that she was monitoring my login and that she was personally going to help me make my deposit, requesting my credit card informtion over the phone. I refused and entered the deposit with my computer and then she said the payment didnt go thru and tried tpo trick me into making a 2nd and 3rd deposit wit the same credit card. I called my bank and stop the charges, got a different card and made the deposit.
Three days when by and my account had not been activated and everytime I called their office, all I got was busying signals. Clearly, they monitor and block your calls after they got your money. Today 10/03/2016, I sent them a email requesting that they cancel my account and refund allof my used $250. Within 10 mins of my email, I get a call from a guy claiming to be my personal broker calling himself "Austin Malone". I told him that all I wanted was a refund and to close my account but he just tried to talk over me telling me what a great trader has was, how many VIP clients he had and that he would make me so much money if I made a larger deposit. I refused and told him that the only way that I would remain a client was if he had no deals with my account, I would be the only person to traded and operated Option Robot. He agreed with my request and said that my account would be ready for me to trade later this evening. I emailed Askoption new business reinterated my conversation and terms with Austin Malone. 4-5 hours later, my login was removed from OptionRobot's website, I login into Askoption to discover only an $8.75 balance with no trade history, no open or closed positions. Just that my money was gone. Now I can't log back into the Askoption website and have filed a complaint with my credit card company.

ASKoption Reviews
Over the course of the past year beginning in June of 2016, AskOption in particular Austin Malone (Fake name I am sure), lured me in to a scam. The scan purported to earn 5-10x what normal investments would in a shorter period by trading on their platform.

I have requested a withdrawal 5 times. They take your money and do not give it back. I have been scammed and there is nothing I can do because they do not call or contact you via the internet. And I feel cheated, embarrased and used.
Beware, do not do any business with this company. Someone, a really good lawyer needs to help us out for this scam.
Ask Option Binary Option Broker at askoption.com will not let me withdraw my own money.
Here is my current balance as of 01/16/17
Total pending withdrawals amount: $11,727.00
Amount available to withdraw: $11,727.95
Current balance: $11,727.95
All i originally wanted was $5,000 and their website reads it takes about 5 days for a withdrawel.
I submited the withdrawel on 01/05/17. Now today as of this post it is 11/16/17.
Because of this I now want al of my mpney.
After you submit a "withdrawel" you receive this email
"Dear MARY BO...
Out financial deparmtent is aware that recently you requested a withdrawal.
We will consider your demand and we will reply you shortly.
Please expect news from our side regarding your issue.
"
So i own my own money and they say that they will “consider” giving it to me. They even admit they just may rip you off and not pay their customers what is rightfully theirs.
I have sent several emails and they are never answered. My broker called me once, and gave many excuses that i dont even remember what they were.
I really thought ask option was legitimate. However it turns out that they are not even licensed.
I emailed them many times stating i would file complaints online and they ignore all of my emails meaning they just do not care.
ASKoption - FRAUD, SCAM!
You never will get your money back.
They push you to invest more and more and give you chance to withdraw one or two
times to taste the system. After that they push you to invest more money. Using
free risk trades they convert your real money to bonus points and you can
withdraw it before you turn it 30 times that the amount you have in the balance.
I have been waiting two weeks two withdraw my money and still nothing. They
start playing games. You will never get your money back! Do not put you money
there. I have reported to the police this site!
My compliant is almost indentical to the guy who filed on 09/11/2016. After signing up for a account with Option Robot, their website directed me to sign up with a selection of two Brokers, Binarybook.com and Askoption.com. After reading nothing but bad customer reviews on BinaryBook.com. I decided to try Askoption because the only review that I could find of any type was the Bad review found here.
As soon as I signed up from Option Robot, I immediatley got severals calls from agents from Askoption, trying to rush me into depositing money, lying that they were a licensed and regualted broker and trying to trick me into accepting free trade days and bonus money. I was successful in refusing these tricks. AS I was attempting to make by $250 deposit via credit card, I got a call from mary at Askoption, telling me that she was monitoring my login and that she was personally going to help me make my deposit, requesting my credit card informtion over the phone. I refused and entered the deposit with my computer and then she said the payment didnt go thru and tried tpo trick me into making a 2nd and 3rd deposit wit the same credit card. I called my bank and stop the charges, got a different card and made the deposit.
Three days when by and my account had not been activated and everytime I called their office, all I got was busying signals. Clearly, they monitor and block your calls after they got your money. Today 10/03/2016, I sent them a email requesting that they cancel my account and refund allof my used $250. Within 10 mins of my email, I get a call from a guy claiming to be my personal broker calling himself "Austin Malone". I told him that all I wanted was a refund and to close my account but he just tried to talk over me telling me what a great trader has was, how many VIP clients he had and that he would make me so much money if I made a larger deposit. I refused and told him that the only way that I would remain a client was if he had no deals with my account, I would be the only person to traded and operated Option Robot. He agreed with my request and said that my account would be ready for me to trade later this evening. I emailed Askoption new business reinterated my conversation and terms with Austin Malone. 4-5 hours later, my login was removed from OptionRobot's website, I login into Askoption to discover only an $8.75 balance with no trade history, no open or closed positions. Just that my money was gone. Now I can't log back into the Askoption website and have filed a complaint with my credit card company.
Hello this is a warning to anyone looking to get into binary options.if there are brokers preassuring you into making bigger and bigger deposits,its a scam.this company ask option,does that exact thing.they will promise you 20-30k per month for minimal deposits,then they give you trade so you start winning,and ask for more deposit.their famous saying is (watch what i can do for you by the end of the month)donot deposit a dime with this company.you will never see it again.they will tell you to trade on signals that they get.that is a lie,they dont have any signals,and if the do,they have a losing record.which goes in their favor because of the supposedly (risk Free TRADES)that is the scam.they dont tell you by using risk free trades that you will not be able to withdraw your earnings untill you make trades exceeding 30 times more than the risk free bonuses that you got because their brokers suck at giving trades.they claim to have over 80% winning rates.that is not the case at all.i dont think they could provide a 10% win rate if their life depended on it.their site is so far off,when you place a bid on a certain currencey,your bid will be a few numbers off of the time you place.the site is non accurate.your bid will vary by 5-10 points either way.so if you bid on a currencey going high,the time you bid will be 5-10 numbers higher than where that particular currencey was at the bid time. resulting in inaccurate trading platform that provides unethical forms of preassure to try and get their clients to deposit more and more money.
they claim that their askoption business is in the process of getting regulated,and also in the process of being the only binary options broker to be on the london stock exchange.when you deposit into this company,your deposit will go to a bank in poland,to a company that has an address in Hong kong,But they claim to be from london uk.with a us number 1-646-757-1536 us new york,new york number.they claim that this is their london uk number +44-2035198515
they will give you losing trades on purpose,so that they can offer you risk free trades.they dont tell you that the risk free trade is a bonus.when ever you accept a bonus,you have to trade 30 times more volume than the bonus was for,in order to withdraw any money.conclusion this company is not a company that anyone would want to do business with.as their website is full of lies,and misleading clients,from start to finish.
i would absolutley not recommend this company to my worst enemy,nevermind someone i know
