How the scam operates.
Alpha Global Market presents itself as an online trading brokerage operating under the domain alphaglobalmarket.io. The platform's name and branding are consistent with the marketing language of licensed multi-asset brokers, projecting an image of professional, globally connected trading services. The designation 'Global Market' signals ambition and institutional weight, a surface-level technique commonly used to attract retail investors seeking exposure to financial markets.
The registered entity is incorporated as an International Business Company in Saint Lucia, a jurisdiction that offers low-barrier corporate formation but confers no financial services licence. BrokersView notes the platform displays no licensing information on its website, leaving it with no verifiable regulatory oversight. Entities structured this way provide no contractual framework for withdrawal requests or dispute resolution, and no compensation scheme protects deposited funds.
For users who engage with the platform, the fracture point typically arrives when withdrawal requests are submitted. Unregulated operations of this pattern frequently cite pending verification, outstanding fee obligations, or compliance holds as reasons to withhold funds. Without a licensing body to lodge a complaint with, victims have limited formal recourse. BrokersView explicitly advises against engaging in any trading activity with this platform and issued its warning in November 2025.
Red flags we documented.
- 01No Valid Financial Licence DocumentedThe platform's only registered entity is a Saint Lucia International Business Company. This corporate structure is not equivalent to a financial services licence and provides no client-fund protections. BrokersView confirmed that no licensing information is displayed on the platform's own website.
- 02Offshore IBC Registration Misrepresented as LegitimacySaint Lucia IBC registration is accessible at low cost with minimal compliance requirements. Legitimate brokers serving retail clients are typically authorised by bodies such as the FCA, ASIC, or CySEC. An offshore IBC with no regulatory licence offers clients no enforceable rights over deposited funds and no path to redress.
- 03Marketing Identity Inconsistent with Regulatory RealityThe trading name 'Alpha Global Market' projects a professional, regulated brokerage identity, yet no licence numbers, regulatory filings, or oversight body disclosures appear on the platform. This gap between marketing presentation and documented regulatory status is a recognised pattern in fraudulent broker operations.
- 04No Investor Protection or Formal Complaints MechanismWithout authorisation from a recognised financial regulator, this platform is not subject to mandatory complaints resolution or any compensation scheme. Clients who deposit funds have no route to regulatory arbitration if a dispute arises and cannot invoke any statutory protection.
- 05BrokersView Warning Issued November 2025BrokersView flagged this operator as a confirmed fraudulent operation in November 2025, advising all users to avoid engagement. The advisory was issued on the basis of the entity's failure to produce any valid regulatory documentation or demonstrate credible licensing.
What you can do now.
Open a free 24-hour case assessment with CryptoLeek +
Tell us what happened. A senior analyst reads your file within 24 hours and replies with an honest yes/no/conditional on recovery. The assessment is free. If we cannot recover the funds we say so plainly, including which (free) regulator channel you should use instead. If we accept the case, we open a numbered case file and issue a written quote for a flat investigation retainer before any work begins, scoped to case complexity, the jurisdictions involved, and the on-chain trail.
Trace your funds on-chain with our analysts +
We trace stolen crypto across BTC, ETH, EVM L2s, Solana, Tron, and major stablecoins using the same toolchain as regulators and tier-1 exchange compliance teams. The output is a forensic report anchored to specific transaction hashes and block heights, the evidence that exchanges, payment processors, and counsel actually act on. Recovery starts here.
Recover with counsel where civil action makes sense +
Where the trace lands in a jurisdiction with cooperative banks and courts, we coordinate with bar-licensed counsel in our 40+ jurisdiction network for civil action and asset-freezing orders (Mareva-style). Counsel bill you directly; the CryptoLeek investigation retainer is independent of counsel fees. The outcome is funds released back to your nominated wallet or bank account.
