FCA Flags Copy-Paste Broker Websites: The Same Template, Many Different Names

The UK‘s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has issued another reminder to retail traders: a cluster of unauthorised brokers is circulating online using the same landing-page template. The pages look almost identical — a large headline reading “Platform n3,” a short marketing blurb, and a right-hand “Sign Up Now” form with three or four fields — with only the logo and brand name swapped. The regulator’s message is simple: do not deposit or share documents with firms that arent authorised.

Sites Showing the Same “n3” Template

Below are examples of domains that present an almost carbon-copy “n3” registration page. Treat similar look-alikes as high risk and verify authorization before taking any action:

• star-trader.net — https://www.star-trader.net
• Goma Tradeix — https://www.gomatradeix.com · https://www.goma-tradeix-solution.com
• Abnara Trade — https://www.abnaratrade.net
• Crypto Ruix — https://www.cryptoruix.net
• PlaconTrader — https://www.placontrader.net
• Cashwealth — https://www.cashwealth.net
• TradePlusAMG — https://www.tradeplusamg.net
• InvestanX — https://www.investanx.net
• InvestCAN App — https://investcanapp.net
• Oneworld Trader 5 Gain — https://www.oneworldtr5gain.net
• Alpha Trade A1 — https://alphatradea1.net
• Spectrum Investix — https://www.spectrum-investix.com

These represent a pattern, not an exhaustive list. If you see the same layout under a different brand, assume high risk until proven otherwise.

Prior Coverage of the One-Template Playbook

WikiFX has documented the “single template, multiple brands” tactic in earlier coverage, showing how the same landing page is recycled across fresh domains while authorization claims stay vague or unverifiable:

Together with the FCAs latest alert, these reports point to a rinse-and-repeat web operation designed to harvest leads quickly before moving on.

Quick Tells to Spot the One-Template Trap

• Visual: the same “Platform n3” headline on a gradient background, plus a “Sign Up Now” box. Footers carry near-identical risk text with only the brand swapped.
• Copy: generic promises — “advanced brokers,” “limitless opportunities” — but no checkable license number, legal entity name, or registered address.
• Flow: the form collects phone/email first; there is no proper onboarding (KYC, appropriateness test, client agreement) before pushing for deposits.
• Badgeware: buzzwords like regulated/secure appear, yet the site doesn‘t match any firm on a public register or the details don’t line up.

Bottom Line: When different “brokers” share the exact same n3 registration page, that‘s your cue to stop and verify. Check a regulator’s public register or a trusted database before you share documents or send money. If the entity, license, and domain dont match — walk away and keep evidence.
