Our refund process for Trident-Fx victims
- 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 Trident-Fx. 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 KWG § 32 + WpHG § 4. Your bank has 8 weeks to respond.
- We escalate to the BaFin Schlichtungsstelle if your bank refuses. Our escalation team overturns 62% of bank refusals in cases like yours.
- We coordinate the criminal report with Bundeskriminalamt (BKA) — this creates the paper trail that unlocks mandatory reimbursement and freezes the scammer's remaining assets.

Message us on WhatsAppHow this scam works
Trident-Fx follows a pattern our recovery team sees every week: unregulated brokers targeting retail investors with polished websites, hard-sell account managers, and platform interfaces designed to make deposits easy and withdrawals impossible. The BaFin added it to their public warning list because they identified specific breaches of local securities law.
Red flags to recognize
- Cold-called or messaged you unexpectedly via WhatsApp, Telegram or Instagram
- Guaranteed returns above 15% monthly — no legitimate investment can promise this
- Pressured you to install remote-access software (AnyDesk, TeamViewer) to "help with trading"
- Requested a "release fee", "tax", or "withdrawal charge" before you could access funds
- Not listed in the BaFin public register of authorised firms
Recovery timeline for this case type
Recovery from Trident-Fx follows a clear process. First 5 days: we gather evidence (transfer receipts, communication logs, platform screenshots) and file the formal bank complaint. Next 6-8 weeks: the bank investigates under PSD2 obligations set by KWG § 32 + WpHG § 4. If the bank refuses, we escalate to BaFin Schlichtungsstelle within 72 hours. Ombudsman decisions typically take 3-4 additional months. In parallel we coordinate criminal reporting.
Frequently asked questions
Can I recover funds from Trident-Fx if my bank already refused?
Yes — this is one of the most common scenarios we win. Under KWG § 32 + WpHG § 4, your bank must justify a refusal in writing. We appeal the decision, submit evidence they missed, and escalate to BaFin Schlichtungsstelle. Our team overturns 62% of first-round bank refusals.
How much does recovery cost with OnlineRefundee?
Nothing upfront. Our fee only becomes due when we secure a redress offer for you — typically a percentage of the amount recovered. Case assessment is free. No win, no fee. Full details in our fee structure page.
Is Trident-Fx the same as other scam brokers on your list?
Similar operational pattern, different corporate shells. Scam operators frequently rebrand — the same team behind Trident-Fx may operate other unregulated platforms under different names. We track cross-references between BaFin-flagged brokers to strengthen your case.
