Vortex Genesis New Zealand has been flagged by Financial Markets Authority for "Fraud and Other Types of Misconduct". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
Tried to withdraw my funds from Vortex Genesis New Zealand and was told I needed to pay a "withdrawal tax" of 20%. This is a red flag. No legitimate broker charges withdrawal taxes. When I refused, they became aggressive and eventually stopped all communication. My entire investment is gone.
Cons: Cannot withdraw funds|Not regulated|Pressure tactics
After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that Vortex Genesis New Zealand is not authorized by any legitimate financial regulator. They are operating illegally. The website looks very professional but it's all a facade. Please check the regulatory warnings database before investing with ANY company.
Cons: Blocked my account|No legitimate license|Fake returns
This company appears on the IOSCO I-SCAN international warnings list. Over 68 financial regulators worldwide contribute to this database. While being listed doesn't automatically mean fraud, it's a significant red flag that potential investors should take seriously. Do your research thoroughly.
Cons: Appears in regulatory warnings database|Uncertain regulatory status
I was about to invest with Vortex Genesis New Zealand but decided to check their regulatory status first. They claim to be regulated but I could not find them on any official register. Financial Markets Authority has actually issued a warning about this firm. Thank goodness I checked before sending any money.
Pros: Website looks legitimate on the surface
Cons: Not registered with regulators|Unrealistic promises
