How we get your funds back from AvaTrade
- Stop paying immediately. Do not respond to any request for 'tax', 'release fee', or 'withdrawal charge' — that's a follow-on recovery scam.
- Preserve your evidence (60 seconds). Save every screenshot, WhatsApp message, email and bank transfer receipt from AvaTrade. This becomes the core of your bank complaint.
- We file the PSD2/APP-fraud complaint with your bank — a full dossier citing the official regulator warning plus Securities Act s.25. Your bank has 30 weeks to respond.
- We escalate to the OBSI (Ombudsman for Banking Services) if your bank refuses. Our escalation team overturns 62% of bank refusals in cases like yours.
- We coordinate the criminal report with RCMP CAFC — this creates the paper trail that unlocks mandatory reimbursement and freezes the scammer's remaining assets.
🇨🇦 The BCSC warning against AvaTrade — explained
AvaTrade is operating without authorisation from the BCSC (Canada). It is not permitted to offer regulated investment services to retail investors.
Official warning published on 26 June 2026.

Is AvaTrade still online?
On 3 August 2026 this site refused our connection. Sites that filter visitors by country are common in this type of operation — it may still be live for people in the countries it targets.

The BCSC (Canada) has placed AvaTrade on its warning list as an unauthorised firm operating without a licence. The firm operated the website m.aavat-radee.cc. If you deposited money with AvaTrade, a free case review will tell you honestly whether it can be recovered.

Message us on WhatsAppHow this scam works
AvaTrade was added to BCSC's watchlist because it is not authorised to provide investment services in Canada. Unregulated brokers use offshore payment processors and shell companies to move victim funds fast — but PSD2 rules and OBSI (Ombudsman for Banking Services) give you real recovery routes.
Red flags to recognize
- Requested a "release fee", "tax", or "withdrawal charge" before you could access funds
- Not listed in the BCSC public register of authorised firms
- Refused to provide FCA/CONSOB/BaFin licence number when asked
- Website domain registered within the last 6 months (young domain = red flag)
- Uses "regulated by" claims from offshore jurisdictions (Vanuatu, St Vincent, Marshall Islands)
Recovery timeline for this case type
For AvaTrade-type cases, expect this schedule: (1) Free case review — 24 hours. (2) Evidence pack assembly — 3-5 days. (3) Formal bank complaint under Securities Act s.25 — 6-8 weeks response window. (4) If refused, OBSI (Ombudsman for Banking Services) escalation — 90-120 days. (5) Criminal report coordination — parallel track. Total: 8-20 weeks depending on bank cooperation.
Frequently asked questions
How long until my funds return after AvaTrade case is won?
Once the bank accepts liability or OBSI (Ombudsman for Banking Services) rules in your favour, funds typically arrive in your account within 14-30 days. Some banks are faster. We monitor the account and chase daily until funds land.
Can I still recover from AvaTrade if the loss was more than a year ago?
Yes, in many cases. PSD2 rules and consumer protection law under Securities Act s.25 do not have a strict recovery deadline — the older the case, the more evidence work needed. We take cases from 3 months to 3 years old regularly.
What if I sent AvaTrade crypto instead of a bank transfer?
Crypto recovery is harder but not impossible. We use blockchain forensics (Chainalysis, TRM Labs) to trace funds to regulated exchanges, then submit legal freeze requests. 30% of cases end up at a regulated exchange where recovery is possible.
