The Traders Domain has received a securities fraud warning from Quebec, Canada.

As per the
Autorite des Marches Financiers’ August 21st warning
;

The Traders Domain is not registered with the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) and is not authorized to solicit investors in Quebec.

Under Quebec law, companies offering passive returns through investment schemes must be registered. Failing to register with the AMF constitutes securities fraud.

The AMF cites The Traders Domain as operating from two known entities; Traders Domain FX Inc. and Traders Domain FX Ltd.

The Traders Domain was a forex ruse Ponzi scheme run by Canadian national Frederick Safranko (aka Ted Safranko, right).

The Traders Domain collapsed in late 2022, dragging down several feeder Ponzi schemes with it.

Note it is unclear why it took the AMF almost two years post-collapse to issue a The Traders Domain fraud warning.
