The Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority of Saskatchewan (FCAA) issued Temporary Cease Trade Orders against BinaryBook, and RBinary Limited for operating unregistered online trading platforms and soliciting Saskatchewan residents by phone to purchase binary options.
“Sometimes glossy professional-looking websites can give the illusion that the investor is dealing with a legitimate company,” FCAA Deputy Director of Enforcement, Ed Rodonets said. “However, you should still beware and check their registration. You can check the registration status of any person or company selling investments by using the Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Registration Search database at www.aretheyregistered.ca.”
BinaryBook runs its binary options trading platform on www.binarybook.com.
RBinary’s website located at www.rbinary.com purports to facilitate the trading of stocks, FOREX, contracts for difference, commodities, and binary options.
BinaryBook, and RBinary Limited are not registered to trade in securities or derivatives in Saskatchewan.
If anyone has been contacted by BinaryBook, or RBinary Limited, they should contact the FCAA Securities Division at 306-787-5936.
