ASKoption
reviews and complaints

I wish someone had forewarned me of the difficulties and hassles involved when I made the error of investing with AskOption a few years ago. Before I realized that I would never get my money back, I had deposited more than $70,000 with AskOption.

Around December of the previous year, I came across a post on this website about Paige Mccubbin and how she has been able to assist people or organizations who have been defrauded in various ways, such as by Ponzi schemes or phony investment platforms, etc.

I messaged her on Telegram; her handle is Paigecubbin. She was able to get my money back from AskOption and have it deposited into my bank account within four days.

I recommend that you avoid any AskOption signs you see because they are scammers.

If you are a victim, please contact Paigecubbin on Telegram for assistance.

Was assured over a month ago I would receive the withdrawal I requested, my broker Victoria said trust me you will get your money. All lies. Now emails no longer work, none of them. If you call you only get the same busy signal, always. Only scammers that I hope get busted and taken down. Can not trust them at all. I filed charges with my bank to try and get my money back through fraud charges and very quickly heard from my broker. Was told once I sent paperwork dropping those charges they would send the money i requested, well i dropped them and never got my money. Just more lies.

Sent numerous emails and had numerous phone calls with them... They are a complete fraud...

So Victoria...  No more calls telling me I can trust you?  Trust what you say?  Telling me I'll get the withdrawal/refund of $1000.00?  No response to the following email telling me that ASKOption is not a SCAM?

As of 06/18/2017 the $1000.00 Withdrawal from ASKOption has not been deposited in my CC Account.  You are ignoring my requests to verify your transaction number:  Most people who have problems getting their money out of broker, are dealing with unlicensed and fraudulant companies.

ASKoption needs to track the ARN number from your end to see where the $1000.00 went.
ARN number - 75504656249016506404796

At this point I can conclude that you are lying to me about the withdrawal being sent back to  my CC and that ASKOption is basically a SCAM to rip off clients.

AskOption Regulations
When the Scam Broker Investigator reviews a broker to see if they are a scam or real broker, we check for a variety of items. The first item we look for is to know if they are licensed and regulated by CySEC in Cyprus, or the CFTC in the United States.
AskOption is not a licensed broker.
When you choose a binary options broker, checking the list of licensed brokers is always important. On October 26th 2015, FINRA published an investor alert regarding offshore binary options brokers. Read the alert on FINRA’s website here.

In February of 2017 my ASKOption broker, Frank, told me that he completing my withdrawal of $13, 000 in several steps.

I received the first withdrawal of $5, 000 soon after, but despite his assurances, the remaining $8, 000 has not yet been sent.

Additionally, approximately $3, 300 was later deposited and that amount was removed my balance without explanation.

The following is a transaction I made back in February.
20/02/2017 19:42:23 $5000.00 Deposit Approved Adjustment
My broker, Ben Jefferson, promised me that if I was to make a $5000 deposit, he would be able to get it back to me by the end of March. Since then, I cannot get in touch with him and every time I call and leave a message or use the chat board, I get the same answer from all the support personnel, which is, "please expect a call" but to date of this complaint, I still have yet to receive a call back.
Since then I did notice the following in my banking information.
This one on 12/05/2017, I haven't heard from anyone
12/05/2017 22:10:58 $6250.00 Withdrawal Pending
This one dated 28/04/2017, I have not received it. I have ask for a transaction number so I can have my credit card to track it but still I cannot get a direct answer from anyone.
28/04/2017 00:14:10 $5000.00 Withdrawal Approved Credit Card
I need this money due to medical reasons in which I explained to Ben Jefferson when I first started. Any assistance here would really help my situation. Below is how many emails I sent Ben Jefferson over the last couple of months.

In addition to ask option ripping me off, ignoring my emails, ignoring my phone calls I have just heard from a very reliable source that has delt with ask option in the past that it may very well be a !

As you know from Bernie Madoff ponzi scheme he was cought after many years of screwing people out of money because his current investors grew weary and started withdrawing their money from his company.

His company provided fake documents with unbelievable returns. However when his investors viewed their accounts online they were not looking at the real financial market instead they were looking at a server of his company made to look like a real financial market however it was not. They simply duplicated the market and changed returns when ever they wanted to.

When his investors starting to ask for withdrawels he did not have it. He was getting more withdrawels than deposits. Does this sound familiar?

This brings us to a possible reason as to why Ask Option does not give me my money. This may explain avoiding contact with me by not returning emails, not returning phone calls.

It may be as simple as that Ask Option simply DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY! They may be going down the same path as Bernie Madoff, just another ponzi scheme!

A broker AKA Ben Jefferson would call me to make trades and win every single time. I have other brokers and no one wins every single time. However he seems to have the magic wand.

He also brags about how good he is at trading. He brags about how much money he makes. Ok, so if you and the company you represent are so successful then why cant you cough up the money you owe me.

Think about it. Companies like Ask Option are not regulated. Therefore who is checking on them.

Ben Jefferson said to me by telephone something like they have millions of clients and that many of them are withdrawing money at the same time and also their bank only allows a certain amount of withdrawels during a certain period and that I am in the "Que" to get paid. but he could not give me a time frame. Furthermore if I am in the "Que" to get my moeny then why does Ask Option heep changing my account status to $0.00 money pending to be withdrawn.

Like any other ponzi scheme the people at the end get stuck holding the bag. Not me. I will post reports every single day all year until I get what is mine.

“Ask Option Binary Option Broker at askoption.com will not let me withdraw my own money.
Here is my current balance as of 01/16/17
Total pending withdrawals amount: $11, 727.00
Amount available to withdraw: $11, 727.95
Current balance: $11, 727.95

All i originally wanted was $5, 000 and their website reads it takes about 5 days for a withdrawel.
I submited the withdrawel on 01/05/17. Now today as of this post it is 11/16/17.

Because of this I now want al of my mpney.

After you submit a "withdrawel" you receive this email
"Dear MARY BO...
Out financial deparmtent is aware that recently you requested a withdrawal.
We will consider your demand and we will reply you shortly.
Please expect news from our side regarding your issue.
"
So i own my own money and they say that they will “consider” giving it to me. They even admit they just may rip you off and not pay their customers what is rightfully theirs.
I have sent several emails and they are never answered. My broker called me once, and gave many excuses that i dont even remember what they were.
I really thought ask option was legitimate. However it turns out that they are not even licensed.

I emailed them many times stating i would file complaints online and they ignore all of my emails meaning they just do not care.

Beware of this company
