What are they trying to censor
Background
N1CM, established in 2017, positions itself as a global forex and CFD broker. Despite its claims of regulation and reliability, several allegations and concerns have emerged, casting doubt on its operational integrity.
Regulatory Concerns
- Unregulated Status: N1CM is registered in Vanuatu, a jurisdiction known for its lenient regulatory environment. This status categorizes N1CM as an unregulated or offshore broker, raising concerns about the firm’s adherence to international financial standards.
- Lack of Transparency: The firm’s vague or hidden terms have been flagged as potential red flags for unethical practices. Such opacity can mislead investors and obscure the true nature of the services offered.
Reputation Impact
These allegations significantly tarnish N1CM’s reputation. The unregulated status and lack of transparency suggest a potential for unethical practices, deterring potential investors and clients. The absence of stringent regulatory oversight implies that investors may not receive adequate protection, increasing the risk of potential financial misconduct.
Motivation for Information Suppression
Given the damaging nature of these reports, N1CM has a vested interest in removing or suppressing such information:
- Client Acquisition: Negative publicity can hinder the firm’s ability to attract new clients, directly affecting revenue streams.
- Regulatory Scrutiny: Publicized allegations may invite further investigation from financial authorities, potentially leading to legal actions or sanctions.
- Competitive Disadvantage: Adverse news can place N1CM at a disadvantage compared to competitors with clean records, impacting its market position.
In an effort to mitigate these challenges, the firm might consider employing tactics to remove or obscure unfavorable information. Such actions could include aggressive legal strategies, search engine optimization to bury negative reports, or, in extreme cases, illicit activities like hacking to eliminate detrimental content.
Conclusion
The allegations and regulatory concerns surrounding N1CM present a cautionary tale for potential investors. The firm’s unregulated status and lack of transparency expose clients to significant financial risks. While N1CM may seek to suppress negative information to protect its interests, investors are advised to exercise due diligence and engage only with fully authorized and transparent financial service providers.

With this technique, the wrongful notice sender (or copier) creates a copy of a ?true original? article and back-dates it, creating a ?fake original? article (a copy of the true original) that, at first glance, appears to have been published before the true original

I’ve seen so many complaints about N1CM, and now I know why. It’s just another broker out to steal your money. Don’t trust them

N1CM is a scam! Don’t trust them with your money. It’s all a setup to take advantage of people

This broker isn’t retail-friendly at all. I deposited to test their platform, but their slow order execution and high overnight spreads left me unimpressed. To add insult to injury, they blocked my account and have ignored my emails about returning my deposit. I only got one reply from them, which just said, “Your account was blocked.” This has been a bad experience.

Avoid N1CM at all costs. They won’t let me withdraw my initial deposit, and their support team doesn’t respond to my emails. They only replied once to tell me my account was blocked, and that’s it. This is beyond frustrating, and I feel completely ignored.

This broker clearly doesn’t prioritize its retail clients. The process execution is too slow, and the spreads were unreasonably high, especially overnight.
