Re: Broco warning!!!
Dear civfan!
You are trying to defend a wrong person I am afraid. Look at this from my point of view, friend. I've seen many brokerages collecting our money then cutting and running, especially to my shame Russian brokerages. I have noticed that in all cases they even when caught stealing continue to advertise and attract more money and customers up to the very last second.
There are usually signs that tell you in advance what is going to happen. On BroCo's example they are denied a PayPal account, they relocate to unregulated country etc. These are signs, and for careful person it is usually enough. But it is still inconclusive to alarm public.
But when a (very much Federal) District Court for the Southern district of N.Y. issues an emergency order, only a very naive person would think that there is something more left to clarify.
And as to the great professional that you trying to protect from somebody:
In a very predictable manner she is clueless about what is going on, has no idea even what court they are dealing with (or intentionality lying to make it look less important) and all she know is to post insults and attack the messenger. Note the difference here: I am telling truth about something that I know to warn and thus help my fellow traders including you. She came here to lie(about the nature of the law suite, about the court,even about their location) and attack me, all for one reason: to keep all your money in BroCo and maybe attract more. And do you know what is going to happen to your money if it is still there in a week, in a month? Will you be surprised now if nobody will answer your next call to BroCo and the website will not show up?
That happened so many times already. But they keep treating us as idiots...
Check it up yourself:
here is their new address and registration :http://www.brocompany.com/about-us/structure/ .Does it look like they are still in Russia to you?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_federal_courts, read about federal courts in U.S. if you also don't know what "District Court" means
And finally, say thank you for a warning that can save you money. It means nothing if a con-artist has been dealing with you honestly while setting up his trap. Now you know that his situation has changed it it might be a good time for him to close it.
And the very last thing. Honest people do not attack the messenger and do not lie
