Emplois Option Binaire En Israel

Job conseils pour les immigrants sages jusqu'à la fraude options binaires Related Topics Related Stories À quelques exceptions près. Les nouveaux immigrants en Israël ne se déplacent pas ici pour poursuivre une vie de crime. Mais que ce soit à cause de l'ignorance, du désespoir ou de la tentation de hauts salaires, des milliers de personnes se sont retrouvées employées dans les options binaires et les industries de forex, un réseau largement frauduleux de sociétés qui utilisent des pratiques trompeuses pour dépouiller des centaines de milliers de victimes de vastes sommes d'argent. L'argent dans le monde entier, le tout avec l'autorisation tacite de l'application de la loi israélienne, qui a frappé de façon frappante de prendre des mesures pour fermer l'industrie. Des organisations comme Secret Tel Aviv, Janglo, Nefesh BNefesh et Gvahim, qui offrent des listes d'emplois et servent de porte d'entrée de confiance pour les immigrants dans le monde de l'emploi israélien, sont les premières lignes de la bataille. Mais les options binaires corrompues et les sociétés de forex, les 8220wolves de Tel Aviv, 8221 sont désireux d'accéder à ce bassin de jeunes étrangers intelligents qui parlent leur langue maternelle sans un accent 8212 parfait pour la tromperie et fausses déclarations qui sont au centre de la fraude. Comme l'a signalé The Times d'Israël, une grande partie de cette industrie n'est rien de plus que le vol: Loin d'investir dans n'importe quel processus d'achat d'options légitimes et conventionnelles, les clients malchanceux des entreprises frauduleuses sont en fait le jeu dans un casino tordu. Comment est-ce que chaque organisation de recherche d'emploi face à la pression de ces entreprises à la publicité dans leurs forums C'est une question importante parce que, comme un avocat en Israël (qui a demandé que nous ne pas utiliser son nom) a dit à The Times d'Israël, Se heurtent à des difficultés juridiques et même à des demandes d'extradition vers des pays étrangers au moment où l'application de la loi mondiale s'attaque à leurs crimes. 8220 Sans aucun doute, les gens qui travaillent dans des entreprises (frauduleuses) s'exposent à des problèmes juridiques criminels et civils à l'avenir, disait-il. Après le Times of Israels Mars 23 expos sur la corruption généralisée dans l'industrie des options binaires, Janglo. Un forum en ligne pour les anglophones en Israël, le 30 Mars a annoncé qu'il n'accepterait plus forex binaires et options binaire options d'emploi sur son site. La politique s'étend non seulement aux emplois de vente, a écrit le gestionnaire de sites, Zev Stub, mais à d'autres postes comme IT et admin au sein de ces entreprises ainsi. Nous développerons notre liste de noms de sociétés dans les prochains jours et les prochaines semaines. Vous pouvez nous signaler les entreprises sur sitejanglo. net. Stub, qui dirige le site à partir de Jérusalem, a déclaré que c'était une décision difficile à prendre, mais après avoir demandé aux lecteurs leur point de vue sur les pratiques corrompues et frauduleuses décrites dans le Times Des expositions d'Israël, il a conclu que l'industrie devait être évitée à tout prix. Dans beaucoup de manières ce problème binaire est plus d'un problème de Tel-Aviv qu'une question de Jérusalem, 8221 a déclaré Stub. Donc, je n'ai jamais vraiment eu à l'affronter d'une manière frontale. Je savais binaires était ombragé, mais il avait sonné pour moi comme ça signifiait une sorte de zone grise. Cela a clarifié que ce n'est vraiment pas une zone grise, c'est une zone noire. Quand il a demandé à ses lecteurs à quel point l'industrie des options binaires est, Stub dit, la réponse a été écrasante. 8220I a été surpris. Les gens étaient comme, Bien sûr, vous devez l'interdire, ce n'est pas une question. Zev Stub (courtoisie) Stub a compilé une liste croissante d'entreprises qui sont maintenant interdits sur son site. Il affirme que l'un des défis a été de déterminer quelles sont les entreprises légitimes et qui ne sont pas. Lorsque j'ai fait cette annonce, j'ai reçu un appel de ce que je pense est une société de forex légitime à Jérusalem. Ils voulaient m'expliquer comment ils ne sont pas binaire et comment ils sont légitimes, et la femme avec qui j'ai parlé ressemblait à une belle personne observatrice religieusement avec de bonnes valeurs. Mais dans le même temps, il lui parlait, Stub a reçu un courriel d'un lecteur disant, Heres une annonce forex, vous devez avoir manqué, et il était pour la même entreprise. En tant que modérateur, essayer de supprimer le bien du mauvais est très difficile. Même aujourd'hui, j'étais en contact avec une entreprise qui fait beaucoup de publicité sur Janglo. Ils ont une plate-forme financière pour le commerce de forex et ils m'ont demandé, pourquoi n'avez-vous pas été d'accepter nos messages dernièrement Parce que nous ne sommes pas binaire, we8217re quelque chose d'autre. Dans le même temps, toutes leurs annonces disent une année d'expérience en binaire est un plus. Une interdiction totale Jonny Stark, le fondateur et directeur de Secret Tel Aviv. Un site Web et un groupe Facebook avec plus de 100 000 adeptes, adopte une approche plus ambitieuse. Il interdit toutes les sociétés commerciales en ligne en Israël qui arent les sociétés financières traditionnelles. Stark note que cette politique est en place depuis un an et demi et, en plus de sociétés de commerce en ligne, son site interdit la carte verte frauduleuse, serrurier et les entreprises de déménagement, ainsi que les sociétés de jeux et les entreprises de téléchargement de l'injecteur Qui installent des logiciels malveillants et des virus sur les ordinateurs des peuples. Jonny Stark (courtoisie) Il y avait un temps où j'envoyais 20-30 courriels par jour aux personnes leur disant d'arrêter l'affichage binaire et les travaux de forex. Il a ralenti beaucoup. Si quelqu'un publie le travail à nouveau, nous les supprimons du groupe. Malheureusement, beaucoup de gens ont été enlevés, 8221, dit-il. 8220If quelqu'un publie un travail et doesn8217t dire le nom de l'entreprise, nous allons le supprimer et les message pour demander ce que l'entreprise est. Il ya quelques années, rappelle Stark, il avait un ami proche des États-Unis qui venait de terminer l'armée et cherchait un emploi. J'ai passé une longue période avec lui, travaillant sur son CV afin qu'il puisse trouver un travail de vente avec une bonne compagnie. Au milieu du processus, il a pris un emploi dans les options binaires et nous avons cessé de travailler sur son CV. Mais le point révélateur était que dans un an il avait quitté Israël. Son rêve sioniste tout entier était terminé. Il avait fondamentalement travaillé à tromper les gens de leur argent. Depuis qu'il a interdit toutes les annonces binaire et de forex, Stark dit qu'il a obtenu beaucoup de flak de personnes dans l'industrie. Cinquante pour cent de (les annonceurs d'options binaires) dire, OK, bien nous won8217t le faire à nouveau. Mais 20 pour cent de ceux le font encore, ainsi ils sont enlevés. Les autres 50 p. 100 se disputent avec moi. Certains diront: Vous savez que nous sommes une société réglementée. Il ya de bonnes compagnies et de mauvaises compagnies et nous sommes une bonne compagnie. L'autre angle est juste pour m'attaquer, comme Qui êtes-vous pour nous dire ce que nous ne pouvons pas faire pour empêcher les gens d'obtenir des emplois. Stark dit que sa réponse à cet argument est: «Si les gens volent des voitures tout le temps, ne devrions-nous pas les empêcher de voler des voitures parce que son emploi», dit-il, il se sent une responsabilité d'offrir des alternatives à ceux employés dans l'industrie. Je ne voulais pas juste attaquer les gens et le laisser. Si nous allons empêcher les gens d'obtenir des emplois en binaire et forex, puis let8217s s'assurer qu'ils peuvent obtenir des emplois dans d'autres industries. Stark a lancé un comité d'emplois commissaires il ya dix mois. Il dit qu'il a été utilisé par 2.500 personnes jusqu'à présent et a offert plus de 1000 emplois. J'ai entendu dire qu'il ya 12 000 personnes travaillant dans l'industrie (options binaires). Il ya quelques semaines, quelqu'un m'a dit que 20 000. Nous comprenons que les gens ont besoin d'emplois. Vivre à Tel Aviv est cher, et il est difficile de construire une vie ici. Mais nous pensons qu'il ya suffisamment de bons emplois là-bas, de sorte que les gens n'ont pas besoin d'utiliser cela comme une excuse. Il ajoute, si vous êtes 8216successful8217 en binaire ou de forex, ces compétences sont transférables 8212, vous pouvez également être très réussie dans honnêtes sociétés de haute technologie.8221 Bonne vibes et de l'argent Une lecture rapide de la commission des emplois de Nefesh BNefesh. Un organisme sans but lucratif qui apporte de nouveaux immigrants en Israël, révèle de nombreuses annonces 8212 dans le climat de montée de la consternation à la fraude des options binaires 8212 qui assurent les demandeurs éventuels 8220No forex pas d'options binaires.8221 De Nefesh B8217Nefesh8217s groupe d'emplois (Facebook) Cependant, le Nefesh B8217Nefesh Board porte également des annonces qui ne semblent être pour les entreprises d'options binaires, comme celui-ci, daté du 28 Mars: Un démarrage réussi dans l'industrie du commerce en ligne est à la recherche d'énergiques vendeurs Venez travailler pour une grande entreprise, situé au centre de Tel Aviv. (GOOD VIBES et MONEY.) Conversion de personnes (vendeurs). Rétention des personnes. Service client. Sales instructor-Formation des marchés de capitaux et des ventes contenu - (Expérience en binaire ou forex un must) Un deuxième annonceur, qui a posté lundi. A également prouvé être à la recherche pour combler des emplois dans l'industrie du forex. Interrogé sur ces annonces, Yael Katsman, porte-parole de Nefesh BNefesh, a envoyé au Times of Israel le texte des règles d'affichage des groupes. Veuillez ne poster que des emplois dans ce groupe ou des événements liés à aider Olim avec un emploi. S'il vous plaît ne pas afficher des options de forex et d'options binaires dans ce groupe. Si vous recrutez dans ce domaine, envoyez-nous la description de poste, ainsi que les conditions et l'emplacement à giyusnbn. org. il. Interrogé si cela signifie que Nefesh Bnefesh évalue les emplois binaire et forex postings au cas par cas, Katsman n'a pas répondu. Gvahim, un organisme sans but lucratif dédié à aider les nouveaux immigrants à trouver des emplois de haute qualité en Israël, a déclaré à The Times d'Israël qu'il évite l'industrie: 8220A titre de politique nous don8217t référer ou recommander de nouveaux immigrants à des emplois dans le domaine des changes et binaire Les loups de Tel-Aviv: Israel8217s vaste, amoral options binaires scam exposé Lorsque Dan Guralnek a immigré d'Australie en Israël en 2012, il n'a pas Anticiper s'impliquer dans une escroquerie Internet internationale. J'ai toujours voulu me déplacer en Israël, dit Guralnek, qui a assisté à une école de jour juive à Sydney. Il travaillait dans l'administration d'une usine en Australie quand son patron est mort subitement, et, à l'âge de 28 ans, il a réalisé qu'il était un bon temps pour lui de se déplacer vers Israël. J'ai pensé, je suis libre, pas de chaînes attachées, je peux y aller. Guralnek s'est inscrit à Jérusalem Ulpan Etzion pour apprendre l'hébreu, puis a déménagé dans la ville vibrante et animée de Tel Aviv, où il a atterri une série d'emplois à salaire minimum pour NIS 25 (un peu plus de 6) à l'heure: hacher des légumes dans un restaurant, Conduire une personne handicapée, travailler le quart de nuit à un stand hot-dog. Mais dans une ville avec des loyers élevés et un coût de la vie par rapport aux salaires (PDF), après seulement au Japon, Guralnek n'a pas pu survivre. Il a entendu dire que les emplois dans une industrie appelée options binaires payé deux fois ce qu'il gagnait, plus la commission. 8216It8217s le jeu et we8217re un bookie8217 8212 ex-vendeur d'options binaires Dès que j'ai commencé à chercher un emploi, j'obtenais des appels d'entreprises d'options binaires chaque jour, rappelle-t-il. Ils dominent l'espace annonce de travail. Guralnek n'a pas non plus de difficulté à trouver un emploi. Vous entrez et ils font un grand spectacle comme they8217re évaluer si oui ou non ils vous veulent. Mais ils veulent vous. Le jour où Guralnek entra dans les somptueux bureaux de son nouvel employeur dans la ville balnéaire de Herzliya Pituah, il savait qu'il était arrivé. Vue des immeubles de bureaux de haute technologie à Herzliya Pituah. 12 décembre 2015. (Nati ShohatFlash 90) Il y avait du café gratuit, de la nourriture gratuite, dit Guralnek. Mon salaire était de 7 500 shekels (1 900) par mois, plus la commission. Guralnek était assis dans un centre d'appels avec une cinquantaine d'autres employés, dont beaucoup étaient de nouveaux immigrants qui parlaient couramment une variété de langues. Son travail consistait à appeler les gens du monde entier et à les convaincre de s'investir dans un produit financier ostensible appelé options binaires. Les clients seraient encouragés à faire un dépôt 8212 pour envoyer de l'argent à son entreprise 8212 et ensuite utiliser cet argent pour faire 8220trades8221: Les clients essayeraient d'évaluer si une monnaie ou un produit pourrait monter ou descendre sur les marchés internationaux dans un certain, court période de temps. S'ils ont prédit correctement, ils ont gagné de l'argent, entre 30 et 80 pour cent de la somme qu'ils avaient déposée. S'ils avaient tort, ils perdaient tout l'argent qu'ils mettaient sur ce marché. Guralnek voyait bientôt que plus un client faisait de métiers, plus ils étaient près de perdre l'intégralité de leur dépôt initial. Il avait été chargé de présenter l'option binaire comme un investissement et lui-même comme un courtier, même s'il savait qu'ils auraient très probablement perdre tout leur argent. Le client n'est pas vraiment acheter quoi que ce soit. Ce qu'il achète est une promesse de notre compagnie que nous lui payerons. Il joue et nous sommes un bookmaker, dit-il maintenant. Avant de commencer le travail, la société a donné à Guralnek un cours de vente d'une semaine dans lequel il a été appris suffisamment de connaissances financières pour sonner bon à un client qui savait moins que lui. Il a également été instruit dans les tactiques de vente à haute pression. Ils nous ont appris comment rendre les gens mal à l'aise, comment répondre aux objections, comment les garder au téléphone. La séance de formation était connue comme un cours de conversion et l'objectif était d'apprendre à transformer une avance de téléphone dans un client en prenant leur premier dépôt. Dans sa société, les vendeurs n'ont pas été autorisés à prendre un dépôt de moins de 250. Au cours des ventes, la direction de l'entreprise a donné Guralnek conseils qui l'ont hanté plus tard. Ils nous ont dit de laisser notre conscience à la porte. Est-ce légal? Au fil des semaines, de plus en plus de questions se sont formées dans les questions de Guralneks 8212 qui ont souligné le bizarre monde financier où il était entré. Pourquoi ne savait-il pas les noms de ses gestionnaires Pourquoi les travailleurs ont-ils interdit de parler hébreu ou d'apporter des téléphones cellulaires dans le centre d'appel Qui était le CEO de l'entreprise Pourquoi était-il correct pour le personnel arabe israélien de vendre des options binaires dans des endroits comme l'Arabie saoudite, Des pays comme Israël, les États-Unis et l'Iran étaient hors limites. Poursuivant, Guralnek commençait à soupçonner que, outre les mauvaises chances que les clients avaient effectivement de gagner de l'argent, et au-delà des tactiques agressives de vente, Par exemple, chaque vendeur a été invité à inventer un faux nom et biographie. Le centre d'appels utilisait la technologie Voix sur Internet (VoIP), qui affiche un numéro de téléphone local aux clients partout dans le monde. Le site Web de la société a indiqué une adresse à Chypre. On m'a dit de dire aux gens que j'avais des années d'expérience sur le marché, que j'avais étudié à Oxford et travaillé pour la Bank of Scotland. Guralnek dit qu'il a été dit de se présenter comme un courtier qui a fait une commission sur les métiers et de souligner combien d'argent le client pourrait faire tout en minimisant le risque. En fait, plutôt que d'aider les clients à faire des métiers intelligents, le véritable intérêt était pour eux de faire des prédictions infructueuses et de perdre leur argent. Guralnek dit qu'il était également de plus en plus inquiet par ce qui s'est passé lorsque les clients ont essayé de cesser de fumer. Quand on leur demanderait beaucoup de paperasse. Nous dirions, Vous voulez retirer OK. Nous devons vérifier votre identité avant de pouvoir libérer les fonds. Vous devez nous envoyer une photocopie de votre facture d'électricité, de votre permis de conduire, de votre passeport, de vos exigences de carte de crédit, bien entendu, qui n'avaient pas été mentionnées lorsque le client avait investi. Pendant que le client rassemblait et soumettait cette paperasse, un agent de rétention les appelerait et passerait par leurs métiers, prétendant déterminer ce qui a mal tourné et les convaincre de continuer à commercer. Nous pourrions retarder ce retrait pendant une longue période. 8216 Pourquoi dois-je être blâmé de vendre quelque chose à des gens stupides Si quelqu'un a plus de 18 ans et veut de l'alcool, des cigarettes, un couteau, un compte d'option binaire, il est sa propre responsabilité 8217 8212 Facebook post Si un client était persistant, dit Guralnek, Cesser de prendre leurs appels, ou de leur envoyer un courriel disant que nous vous soupçonnons de fraude et de geler tous leurs fonds. Parce que le client ne savait pas le vrai nom ou l'emplacement de leur vendeur, ils n'avaient nulle part à se tourner pour récupérer leur argent, explique Guralnek. Mais la partie la plus sombre de l'emploi pour le jeune immigrant était de demander de l'argent à des gens qui semblaient pauvres et abattu. Ils croient qu'ils font quelque chose de bien: ils doivent faire un investissement, faire quelque chose de responsable. Et ils ne sont pas. Chaque histoire est triste. Tout le monde a obtenu des gens en fonction d'eux. Beaucoup de gens sont enfin se remettre sur leurs pieds après un problème de drogue ou quelque chose. Le pire était quand un client lui a dit, I8217m à l'hôpital. Quand quelqu'un dit que je suis hospitalisé et que j'ai un cancer, je suis censé les vendre encore. Mais je jetterais la vente à chaque fois. Je ne pourrais pas le faire. Une industrie vaste et déshonorante Si vous tapez les mots options binaires ou forex dans les groupes Facebook qui répondent aux nouveaux olim (immigrants en Israël), vous rencontrerez de longs fils d'échanges chauffés. Est-ce que l'un d'entre vous qui sont impliqués dans les options de ForexBinary réaliser qu'il s'agit d'une entreprise hautement non réglementé qu'il sollicite le jeu aux personnes mal informées ou non éduqué lit un tel poste dans le populaire Secret Tel Aviv groupe. Pourquoi devrais-je être blâmé pour vendre quelque chose aux gens stupides une femme répond. Si quelqu'un a plus de 18 ans et veut de l'alcool, des cigarettes, un couteau, un compte d'option binaire, c'est sa propre responsabilité. Voudriez-vous le vendre à votre grand-mère l'affiche originale des feux arrière. Dans le groupe Keep Olim dans Israel Movement Facebook, une femme écrit, Salut à tous, quelqu'un peut-il m'expliquer ce que sont les emplois binaire et Forex et pourquoi les gens sont tellement anti-travail dans ces industries en Israël Ce champ est déshonorable, lit une réponse. Je l'ai fait et je n'ai senti que de la honte et de l'aversion pour harceler les gens qui n'ont jamais demandé cet appel et d'essayer d'obtenir de l'argent hors d'eux qu'ils sont peu susceptibles de jamais revenir. Si vous ne l'aimez pas, ne le faites pas, lit un autre. Travaillez ce que vous considérez être un travail honnête, faites vos 6 000 shekels (environ 1 500) par mois à emporter, passez la moitié sur le loyer et vivez comme un rongeur avec le reste. Il continue, Alors que l'industrie binaire et Forex et je paie 50 impôts sur nos salaires pour payer vos soins de santé, la sécurité sociale et la sécurité, je peux parler pour nous tous, nous n'avons pas besoin d'être jugé. Personne ne semble savoir exactement combien les options binaires et les industries de forex sont en Israël. Pas même l'Autorité de Securité d'Israël, qui, quand posé la question, a répondu par le message de texte, Comme l'industrie est toujours non réglementée, nous n'avons pas l'image complète. Mais les estimations conservatrices ont mis le nombre de personnes employées dans l'industrie à plusieurs milliers, principalement à Tel-Aviv et ses banlieues comme Herzliya et Ramat Gan, tandis que les revenus annuels pourraient être n'importe où de centaines de millions à plus d'un milliard de dollars américains. Globalement, le terme forex se réfère normalement au commerce légitime en devises étrangères, tandis que les options binaires est le nom d'un instrument financier. Dans le jargon populaire israélien, cependant, les options binaires et forex sont souvent regroupés dans le cadre de la même industrie: Quand les Israéliens se réfèrent à des sociétés de forex, ils signifient souvent les entreprises qui ont des options binaires sur les devises. Parfois, les termes Forex et options binaires sont utilisés de façon interchangeable pour désigner les métiers rapides, tout ou rien sur une gamme d'actifs. Dans certaines sociétés d'options binaires, la plate-forme en ligne est manipulée pour fournir des résultats faux qui assurent le client perd Le processus 8220trading8221 peut fonctionner comme suit, le Times d'Israël a été dit. Après avoir transféré leur premier dépôt financier à l'entreprise, les clients se connectent à une plate-forme de négociation en ligne, comme dirigé par les vendeurs de la société, et de placer de l'argent sur une prédiction que le prix d'une monnaie ou de marchandises va monter ou descendre sur les marchés internationaux, Disons, les cinq prochaines minutes. Si le client prédit correctement, il fait un bénéfice d'un certain pourcentage et la société perd de l'argent. Si le client a tort, il perd tout l'argent qu'il a mis sur le commerce, et la société le conserve. Opérateurs professionnels consultés par The Times of Israel a déclaré que même un génie financier ne peut pas prédire avec confiance ce que, disons, le prix de l'or fera dans les cinq prochaines minutes plutôt que d'un investissement, la transaction n'est vraiment rien de plus qu'un pari. La présentation erronée du jeu comme un investissement responsable serait assez mauvaise. Ce qui est pire encore, et flagrant de corruption, le Times d'Israël a été dit, c'est que, dans certaines entreprises, la maison est pliée. Une variété de ruses sont utilisés. Le gain potentiel pour une prédiction correcte est complexe, opaque et calculé pour minimiser la perte de la société. Si un actif se comporte de manière prévisible, le prix du cuivre commence à grimper à la suite d'un tremblement de terre au Chili 8212, l'entreprise tirera cet atout de la plate-forme en ligne. Dans certaines sociétés d'options binaires, la plateforme en ligne est manipulée pour fournir de faux résultats qui garantissent que le client perd. Les estimations du nombre d'options binaires et de sociétés de forex en Israël varient de 20 à plusieurs centaines. Le Centre de recherche IVC, une société qui fournit des informations sur le secteur de la technologie Israels, a estimé dans son annuaire 2015 qu'il existe 100 sociétés commerciales en ligne en Israël, dont la majorité écrasante appartiennent aux catégories forex et options binaires. IVC estime que ces entreprises emploient plus de 2 800 personnes en Israël. Toutefois, selon l'annuaire, il est difficile de mesurer la taille réelle de l'industrie du commerce électronique en ligne en Israël, en partie parce que l'industrie est faible et que son lien israélien est souvent sous-estimé. Un rapport de 2014 sur l'industrie israélienne de l'Internet par l'incubateur startup TheTime dit que des 90 entreprises Internet israéliennes gagnant des revenus de 10 millions ou plus par an, 15 Étaient des plates-formes de trading en ligne, beaucoup d'entre eux trading forex et options binaires. Trois d'entre eux, selon le rapport, ont été évalués à un revenu d'au moins 100 millions par an. Quelques autres compagnies sur la liste incluaient iForex, bForex, AnyOption, 4XPlace, Optionbit et Banc de Binary. Sur la base de ces évaluations, l'industrie israélienne des devises et des options binaires a un chiffre d'affaires annuel de plusieurs centaines de millions, peut-être même des milliards de dollars. Combien sont frauduleux Il est anyones devinez quel pourcentage de sociétés de commerce financier en ligne s'engager dans des pratiques contraires à l'éthique, illégale et frauduleuse. Une distinction que beaucoup de personnes interrogées pour cet article a tiré était entre les compagnies non réglementées et réglementées. Chypre regroupe plusieurs grandes sociétés mieux connues avec des fondateurs israéliens ou d'importantes opérations de vente et de marketing en Israël, ce qui leur donne la possibilité de vendre des produits financiers dans des pays de l'UE même s'ils ne sont pas réglementés dans ces pays. De nombreuses sociétés de forex et d'options binaires opérant en Israël ne sont toutefois pas réglementées. Sam C. un immigrant récent en Israël des États-Unis, décrit son expérience de travail dans une société d'options non réglementées binaire l'été dernier. Beaucoup de clients avaient cliqué sur une annonce hawking façons de gagner de l'argent à la maison. 8216 Ils croient en réalité qu'ils vont devenir millionnaires simplement en faisant ce 8217 8212 ancien employé du service à la clientèle à une société d'options binaires Ils rendent extrêmement, extrêmement difficile pour les clients de retirer leur argent, dit Sam, qui a travaillé au service à la clientèle et qui a demandé Son vrai nom ne doit pas être utilisé. Vous devez trouver une copie de votre permis de conduire, une copie de votre facture d'électricité et il ya tellement de règles et d'exigences. La moitié des appels que je devais traiter étaient juste des gens qui se plaignaient, disant que cela faisait des mois et j'ai besoin de mon argent maintenant. J'en ai besoin pour payer ça ou cela. Presque la société refuse de l'abandonner. En fait, Sam dit qu'il ne peut confirmer qu'un client a jamais reçu un paiement ou retiré son argent pendant ses quelques mois de travail à l'entreprise. Les gens rappellent et rappellent. Et finalement, parfois, un de mes directeurs dirait, Don8217t prendre cette personne8217s appelle plus et fermer son compte. On dirait que nous avons fait avec lui et tout l'argent n'a pas d'importance. Don8217t prendre des appels de lui plus. La plupart des clients de la société Sams étaient des États-Unis, même si c'est contre la loi américaine que les sociétés vendent des options binaires aux citoyens américains de cette façon. D'autres clients étaient originaires d'Afrique, du Qatar et d'Arabie saoudite. Beaucoup ont cliqué sur une annonce hawking façons de gagner de l'argent de la maison ou regardé une vidéo qui prétendait révéler des stratégies d'investissement secret. La majorité semblait être la personne stupide stéréotypée, rappelle Sam. Vous ne réalisez même pas que des gens comme ça existent en dehors des films. Ils croient réellement qu'ils vont devenir millionnaire juste en faisant ceci. Et c'est presque triste. Interrogé sur ses gestionnaires, Sam a dit qu'ils étaient de jeunes Israéliens qui semblaient penser que c'était cool de déchirer les gens. Leonardo DiCaprio comme Jordan Belfort dans une scène de 20138217s 8216Le Loup de Wall Street.8217 (Paramount Pictures et Red Granite Pictures, Mary Cybulski) Ils semblaient avoir regardé Le Loup de Wall Street et voulu imiter les personnages. La plaisanterie qu'ils auraient, serait comme, oh yeah, je ne peux pas croire qu'il est tombé pour cela, je ne peux pas croire que vous l'avez obtenu d'investir 300. Sam dit un de ses directeurs serait effectivement citer Leonardo DiCaprios ventes des paroles du film textuellement au téléphone Lorsque vous essayez de vendre des options binaires. 82208216 Salut, John. Comment allez-vous aujourd'hui? Vous avez envoyé ma société il ya quelques semaines, en demandant des informations sur un investissement qui avait un énorme potentiel de hausse avec de très petits risques à la baisse, 8217, il cite de mémoire. 8216 Est-ce que ça sonne une cloche? 8221 Je pensais que c'était un peu pathétique, pour être honnête, 8221 se souvient de Sam. Manipulation des logiciels En 2013, les États-Unis interdisaient la commercialisation d'options binaires à leurs citoyens, sauf sur une poignée d'échanges réglementés. Sur son site Web, la Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), un organisme indépendant du gouvernement américain, alerte les investisseurs à des régimes frauduleux impliquant des options binaires et leurs plates-formes de négociation. Ces régimes supposent notamment le refus de créditer les comptes des clients, refusant le remboursement des fonds, le vol d'identité et la manipulation de logiciels pour générer des métiers perdants. La négociation d'options binaires peut être une proposition extrêmement risquée, avertit une autre agence de réglementation basée aux États-Unis, la Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), sur son site Web. Contrairement à d'autres types de contrats d'options, 8221 dit FINRA, un SRO qui réglemente les cabinets de courtage membres et les marchés d'échange, les options binaires sont des propositions de tout ou rien. Lorsqu'une option binaire expire, elle fait soit une somme prédéterminée d'argent, soit rien du tout, auquel cas l'investisseur perd tout son investissement. Trading options binaires est rendu encore plus risqué par des régimes frauduleux, dont beaucoup d'origine à l'extérieur des États-Unis. En Israël, de nombreuses sociétés de forex sont en fait vendant des options binaires, ce qui signifie que les paris d'un client sur si une monnaie va monter ou descendre, plutôt que d'acheter la monnaie, Jared K. un ancien courtier Wall Street explique à The Times of Israel . Le forex traditionnel est que j'achète à 3.50, je vends à 3.60. Forex binaire (c'est-à-dire, forex dans le monde des options binaires) dit si elle va à 3,60 je gagne de l'argent, let8217s dire 20 de plus que je parie, mais si elle va à 3,50 ou moins, je perds. Les options binaires sont rendues encore plus risquées par des régimes frauduleux, dont beaucoup proviennent des États-Unis. 8212 Le gouvernement des États-Unis avertissant Graham P. qui travaille actuellement dans le marketing pour une grande société d'options binaires réglementée à Chypre à Tel Aviv, dit qu'il connaît les efforts Pour manipuler le logiciel tel que décrit par la CFTC 8212 cynique intervention par les entreprises d'options binaires pour s'assurer qu'ils gagnent, l'équivalent de l'industrie8217s d'une roue de roulette gréé dans un casino. J'ai parlé à un gars avec qui je pouvais travailler, et il avait développé une plate-forme d'options binaires. Il a dit que tout le monde qu'il a rencontré qui était intéressé à acheter la plate-forme (pour démarrer leur propre entreprise) voulait qu'il crée une porte arrière. Par la porte arrière, Graham signifie que les entreprises veulent être en mesure de manipuler un 8220trade8221 à la dernière minute si un client ou un groupe de clients semble gagner trop. Disons que 70 pour cent des commerçants sont pour une raison quelconque pariant que le pétrole va monter. Alors, les compagnies disent, gee, si nous faisons juste 30 pour cent gagner, we8217ll être en mesure de garder beaucoup plus d'argent. Et l'algorithme fait cela. Il est très facile de dire au client, oh, la ligne est tombé un peu en dessous de votre position.8221 Si le client apporte la preuve que le prix du pétrole a réellement aller jusqu'à l'endroit où ils prédisaient qu'il le ferait, la compagnie les pointera à l'amende Print, qui indique que la société a ses propres algorithmes qui peuvent différer de temps réel. 8220Trading taux attribués aux actifs sur notre site Web sont ceux où notre société est prête à vendre des options binaires à ses clients au point de vente, 8221 lit un disclaimer typique sur de nombreux sites Web d'options binaires. 8220Ainsi, ils ne correspondent pas directement aux niveaux du marché en temps réel au moment où la vente des options intervient.8221 Graham, dont la société est réglementée à Chypre, déclare qu'à son avis, l'ensemble de l'industrie des options binaires est frauduleuse. Si tel est le cas, cela représente une corruption cynique et systématique à une échelle énorme, ce qui empêche des scandales aussi nocifs que le harcèlement illégal des produits de la Mer Morte par les Israéliens dans les kiosques dans les centres commerciaux du monde entier, avec des répercussions potentielles extrêmement graves pour Israël. Pour une raison fou son juridique en Europe. Les nations européennes individuelles laissent voler des options binaires. Alors que des pays comme les États-Unis sentaient les conneries il ya longtemps et l'ont rendu illégal. Graham a dit que sur le plan intestin, il aimerait voir l'industrie fermer, mais il est inquiet. There8217s tant d'argent versant dans la ville it8217s littéralement une industrie ici 8212 Im y compris forex trop. It8217s probablement payer pour le système de métro we8217re installation. Vous pouvez imaginer des milliers de personnes à Tel Aviv hors de travail Vue générale de Tel Aviv le 27 décembre 2010. (Abir SultanFlash 90) Une mauvaise réputation Chaya Berkowitz, un vétéran de huit ans de sociétés de forex en Israël, raconte le Times d'Israël Que sa propre expérience dans l'industrie a été bonne. Je ne suis pas inconscient. Je suis conscient qu'il a une très mauvaise réputation. Je ne pense pas que les 100% soient justifiés. Berkowitz affirme qu'il ya des entreprises légitimes dans l'industrie, et cliquetis les noms FXCM, Alpari et FXPro, dont aucun n'est basé en Israël. Si vous avez dix sociétés de forex, probablement six ou sept d'entre eux ont de mauvaises réputations qui donnent aux autres un mauvais nom. Son malheureux parce que les autres prennent leur entreprise au sérieux et se soucient de leurs clients, dit-elle. Interrogé si ces six ou sept sont coupables de fraude, Berkowitz avers, je ne dirais pas theyre commettant la fraude. Ils ont la réputation de mentir à leurs clients et de publicité trompeuse. Cela existe certainement, mais il ya une raison pour laquelle certaines des grandes maisons de courtage sont encore là. Its because they usually play by the book 8212 otherwise they8217re not around very long. Berkowitz estimates that in legitimate forex companies, two or three out of 10 clients do earn profits and are able to easily withdraw their money. Asked how to tell if a company is legitimate, she says, I would look for tougher regulation, not a company regulated on some island somewhere but regulated in the UK, the United States or Australia. Cyprus, she claims, has become stricter in recent years. Its becoming a more recognized regulatory agency. I would also ask friends or other investors. Personal word of mouth is huge. I would do my homework. Look online to see who has a good reputation. I would ask questions when researching a broker. Do I have easy access to my money Do you offer education Reeling the customers in After getting her Masters degree in Israel and marrying an Israeli, Lynne R. a native Californian, began looking for a job, but was disappointed by what was out there. It was really shocking to me, once I started going to companies, to find out how low the salaries were. I wanted to find something more competitive, more similar to what I was earning in the United States. People kept mentioning to Lynne that binary options jobs paid well. She posted the fact that she was looking into a couple job sites on Facebook, and I probably had 25-30 people call to set up interviews. Lynne went on five or six interviews, where she learned she was eligible for two types of jobs. Ramat Gan8217s Moshe Aviv Tower, Israel8217s tallest building, houses many binary options companies (Simona WeinglassTimes of Israel) There8217s conversion and retention. For the conversion jobs they were telling me I would make around 15,000 shekels (3,850) a month and for retention jobs they told me I could make 30,000 to 40,000 (7,700 to 10,250) a month. At each interview, Lynne probed extensively as to the nature of the job. Each company has its own marketing methods, often involving videos that tell the story of a person who learned a secret method of extracting money from the market, she says. One firm told her it attracted customers with a 8220robot8221: They said, basically we use a program, which we call a robot. We market it to people and we say it can make small trades for you, like 100 or 200, and there8217s an Internet program that will do, you know, some magic and make you a few hundred extra dollars a month. Lynne8217s job would be to call people who had paid 200 to use the robot, and persuade them to deepen their involvement. 8220You call them and you say, well, you have this robot, but its not actually that great of a program it was sold to you by an affiliate of ours. If you want to make serious money, you need to start trading, and we can tell you how. We8217re expert traders. All you need to do is make a bigger deposit, and you8217ll get a personalized account with us and a personal trader. All you need to do is make a deposit of 500 and we8217ll get you started. Lynne was eventually offered a retention job, and was enrolled in a two-week training course. The first thing she was told was to never reveal she was calling from Israel. All retention staff were asked to pose as trained brokers working out of a London office. They were required to brush up on the days weather in London as well as what was happening in the news. You had to make yourself a biography. You needed to think of a business school and say that you went there. You needed to say that you were a trader, that you had worked for either an investment bank or on Wall Street. If you8217re a woman, they encourage you to say you8217re single because guys will more likely deposit with you. If you8217re a guy, you want to have a wife and two kids, because that makes you relate-able. The company, she said, was regulated in Cyprus. The industry is certified for Europe, but you8217re not heavily regulated. Its a way to be EU-accredited without a lot of oversight. (Finance Magnates, a trade publication of Israel8217s online financial trading industry, has written in the past that Cyprus has a reputation for lax regulation.) 8216When we offered training to them, we would share their desktop and walk them through the website. We were told to look around their desktop for pornography or online slots or other signs of compulsive behavior, because that means they8217re more likely to make a deposit8217 8212 former binary options retention agent Lynne says her companys selling point, which it bragged about, was that it was more ethical than other binary options companies. If someone asked to withdraw their money we would give it to them within 48 hours, she says. When Lynne started playing with her companys binary options platform, she realized it was fun and addictive, almost like a gambling game. There was lots of adrenaline. If you put money in your investment account today, it might give you 3 to 6 percent returns. In binary you see 70 percent coming in right away. If conversion agents were expected to get a client to make their first deposit, retention agents like Lynne were tasked with bringing in the big money. The first step was to size up the customer. They told us to look up people8217s homes on Google Maps to see how rich they seemed and to check their credit card information to see if they had gold or platinum status. Also, when we offered training to them, we would share their desktop and walk them through the website. We were told to abuse that access and look around their desktop for pornography or online slots or other signs of compulsive behavior, because that means they8217re more likely to make a deposit. You call someone and you tell them my name is Jane Smith, I8217m calling from London where I8217m an investment banker for this amazing firm. I8217m calling to talk to you about how much you actually want to make. We see that you8217ve invested 300 but we both know 300 is not going to make you anything. So what is it you actually want to make in a year So people would say, I want to make 100,000. I want to buy a house or I want to travel.8221 They tell you something that they want and then you say, so it will probably take you 6-8 months to achieve that. If you want to achieve it you need to trade every day. I8217m going to be working with you. I8217m going to give you information about which picks to make every day. Lynne said the broker would check in with customers regularly, encouraging them, teaching them about the market, and offering tips. When the broker chose a stock for them to bet on, the stock would often perform as promised. When they got on the platform and made their own picks, they started losing. Then the broker would come back and help them make some good calls, and they would win again. So basically you come across as this really great trader, but in reality you are just trying to make the volume of trades be as high as possible. The next step, recalls Lynne, was to ask for a 10,000 deposit. Customers usually balk and say There8217s no way I want to deposit 10,000. So you pressure them and say If you8217re not really serious about making money, then why are we talking right now Traders try everything. Some are really sweet, some try to identify with them, some try to make them feel awkward 8212 whatever the technique is that gets them to deposit. The favorite technique is to say, If you deposit 5,000, I will give you a 5,000 bonus. Customers hear that and they say That8217s insane. Im going to deposit. But the bonus, explains Lynne, is a trap. You8217re not allowed to withdraw any of your money until you use that bonus money something like 30 to 40 times over. Let8217s say I give you a 1,000 bonus. You would need to trade that until you made at least 30,000 profit off of it, and then you can withdraw your money. But you will never get to that amount. Let8217s say you make 10,000 off of it and you say you want to withdraw, in the contract it will say you can8217t withdraw. You can take your original money out, but you can8217t take the bonus or the money you earned with the bonus. So clients get stuck in the system, because they don8217t want to lose all their money, and by the time they trade 30 times the amount of the bonus, they8217ve lost everything. The longer you trade, the more money you lose, says Lynne. You can8217t go that far typically and be successful. However, Lynne says again, with her company, if you resisted the temptation to take the bonus, and if you put in a request, the company would send you your money. They really bragged about the fact that they were good about giving people their money right away. In fact, they encouraged people to take small withdrawals. If a customer had 10,000, they would say, why don8217t you take 2,000 and take your wife on a small trip It8217s very calculated with how much they8217re giving out and how much leeway to try to give the customers. Lynne quit her binary options job soon after the training course because she said she couldnt stomach taking the savings of schoolteachers and truck drivers. Asked whether she thought what she had been assigned to do was unethical or illegal, she replies: It was certainly unethical. When I tell people about this job, they are shocked. They say, that could never be legal, there8217s no way Israel would ever allow that. Economic terrorism In November 2014 a man by the name of Ariel Marom, who described himself as a former employee of several companies in the forex industry, sent a strongly worded letter to both the Finance and the Ethics committees of the Knesset, as reported in Israels financial daily Globes. Israel8217s parliament, the Knesset, January 19, 2016. (Photo by Yonatan SindelFlash90) I am calling on the regulator in charge of banking services and the Knesset Finance Committee to immediately take action to stop the wave of plundering, theft, fraud, money laundering, and crime on an international scale that is managed and operated in Israel that is hurting thousands of customers around the world. Marom described the forex industry as economic terrorism targeting the citizens of many countries. When this information becomes public knowledge through investigative reports by the media, which is bound to happen sooner or later, Israels status in the world will be damaged and it will unleash a wave of hatred toward the Jewish people and Israel, causing tremendous damage. 8216When this information becomes public knowledge through investigative reports by the media8230 Israels status in the world will be damaged and it will unleash a wave of hatred toward the Jewish people and Israel, causing tremendous damage8217 8212 letter sent to Knesset committees Marom said in the letter that he had been searching for a job in recent months and as a Russian speaker had interviewed with forex companies that operate in Israel and target customers abroad. He said he was surprised at the sheer magnitude of the fast-growing industry. There are hundreds of jobs currently available to Arabic, Russian, English, Spanish and French speakers as these companies seek new workers for their expanding departments. Marom added that after years in the traditional banking industry, he was shocked at the practices he witnessed in several forex companies. In the absence of any regulation, they are simply robbing customers. Many people compare forex to a casino, but its worse than a casino. A casino hands you your winnings immediately. Forex companies 8212 and Im talking about most of them 8212 simply do not allow people to withdraw money. Marom goes on: Many forex customers have no idea that the company operates from Israel, especially when were talking about the Arabic-speaking desks. Their complaints never reach our justice system and so the industry is not exposed. How is it possible that this has been happening for years, with no local regulation What happens when thousands of Turks, Russians, Spaniards, Italians and French figure out that the scam they fell for was carried out from here, in Israel Are our regulators waiting for synagogues to start blowing up all over the world to shut this thing down It is not clear what the Knesset Finance Committee did in response to Maroms letter. The Times of Israel tried to track Marom down, but the CEO of FeeX, a high-tech startup he used to blog for, said he had not heard from Marom for a few years and had no contact information. Maroms LinkedIn profile placed him at a high-tech company in Brazil where no one who answered the phone seemed to speak English. A phone call to an Ariel Marom listed near Haifa was answered by a woman who said her husband is an astronomer, not a finance professional. Youre the third journalist who has called looking for Ariel Marom in the last two weeks, she said. Now Im curious. The Times of Israel asked for the help of SixGill, a cybersecurity high-tech firm that specializes in the dark web, to track down Marom, but after a brief automated search, Tommy Ben-avi, a senior analyst at Sixgill, concluded that either Ariel Marom is not his real name or he doesnt want to be found.8221 The cyber intelligence company did, however, make some interesting observations about the forex and binary options industries. Ben-avi mentioned several companies known to be operating from Israel. This industry is a bit shady. Its hard to get to the owners and CEOs of some of these companies. Most of the time, when you have a company that large, you can see the owner, you can see the shareholders. Ben-avi conducted an automatic search with a system that scours hundreds of thousands of sites and closed dark web forums. It seems like they8217re trying to hide their identity. Maybe a few companies have the same owner, and they want to hide that fact,8221 he mused. 8220Or maybe their business is not 100 percent legitimate. How its done on Wall Street Jared K. a licensed stockbroker from the United States who now lives in Tel Aviv, says that he sees several problems with the local forex and binary options industries. On Wall Street, brokers are regulated, transactions are regulated, the money is regulated. Where is it coming from and where is it going There are rules as to how someone can access money in a claim. 8216I am shocked that Israel hasn8217t shut this down8217 8212 US-licensed stockbroker who lives in Tel Aviv Furthermore, says Jared, in the United States, a license to sell securities or handle client investments would require a person to meet certain ethical standards. If they dont look out for the best interest of their clients investments, it is a criminal offense. On Wall Street I can8217t put someone in an investment that doesn8217t fit them. That is fraudulent. If I called up your parents and said put money in this investment and they lost it all, in theory I could be arrested and go to jail. 8220Binary doesnt have that, there are no repercussions. What happens if someone loses money Nothing. I am shocked that Israel hasn8217t shut this down, he sums up. A product that invites fraud Yaron Zelekha, Israels former accountant-general, became known as the countrys foremost whistle-blower in 2007 when he exposed the financial improprieties of a sitting prime minister, Ehud Olmert. 8216I personally would not advise any Israeli to trade with any of these companies8217 8212 Yaron Zelekha, Israel8217s former accountant-general Zelekha told The Times of Israel that he doesnt want to tar all its players with the same brush, but that binary options and some instruments related to forex are designed in a way that creates a strong incentive for fraud. There is a very wide information gap between the public and these players, and they are exploiting it to their advantage. The broker is not giving you a service like in a bank he is personally betting against you. This is a flagrant conflict of interest, because youre betting on something, and the person reporting the outcome wants you to lose. Such circumstances invite fraud, says Zelekha, and there is no small number of companies that simply defraud the customer. Sometimes that fraud is very sophisticated. Israeli economist Yaron Zelekha, (Yossi ZeligerFLASH90) Asked whether the entire industry should be shut down, Zelekha responds, There is no need to throw out the baby with the bathwater, although I personally would not advise any Israeli to trade with any of these companies. What the industry does need, he says, is real-time regulation. He says there is software that can now do real-time monitoring of a companys transactions. The Israel Securities Authority (ISA) must have real-time access to these companies computer systems. Zelekha says the ISA has fought a long battle to regulate the online financial trading industry. They deserve credit for their efforts, although the regulation wont be effective if it isnt done in real time. ISA: We probably wont allow binary options The Israel Securities Authority is housed in a 1920s Eclectic-style building in one of Tel Avivs loveliest neighborhoods, near the stock exchange. Itzik Shurki, director of the ISA8217S Exchange and Trading Platforms Supervision, is a soft-spoken man, but he has harsh words for binary options. Shurki says a new law to regulate online financial trading industries went into effect in May 2015. The companies that wanted to continue to offer their products to Israeli customers had to request a license from the ISA. Twenty-one companies requested licenses. One was disqualified, because its controlling shareholder, Aviv Talmor, had fled to Cyprus to escape arrest for alleged financial misdeeds. Talmor has since returned to Israel and is currently under house arrest. Two other companies withdrew their applications, leaving 18. Of these, four are primarily binary options companies, while the others seek to offer other types of CFDs, or contracts for differences, as well. 8216With binary options we8217ve already informed the companies that our intention is probably not to approve this product8217 8212 Itzik Shurki of the Israel Securities Authority Almost a year later, none of the applicants has been approved. Shurki says that the industry is currently in a transition period while the ISA reviews the applicants. During this period, the 18 companies have permission to continue to operate. If we decide yes, they will become fully regulated companies if we decide no, they will have to stop their operations. Which way is the ISA leaning With binary options we8217ve already informed the companies that our intention is probably not to approve this product. Its basis is problematic. Because ultimately 8212 I don8217t want to use the word 8216gambling8217 because it is a financial product 8212 but in the way it is offered and in the short time frame, and with all its complexity, in our view it brings it closer to a guessing game than a financial product where you can evaluate its worth. Itzik Shurki of the ISA (Courtesy) CFDs, or contracts for differences, a high-risk financial instrument that is also banned in the United States except on registered security exchanges, will be allowed in Israel, says Shurki. However, Shurki says CFDs will be regulated in real-time and aggressive or deceptive sales tactics will be rendered illegal. The ISA will monitor the prices of every product offered to make sure they are transparent and fair traders will need to be licensed and traders will also be prohibited from offering advice or tips to their customers. 8220You can8217t be in a position to give advice when their earnings are your loss,8221 Shurki explains. This all sounds quite impressive. Once the ISA makes it decision, one might be forgiven for thinking, the binary options fraudsters will be out of business. But theres a catch 8212 a great big catch that potentially excludes the overwhelming proportion of binary options trading from effective supervision in Israel: The new regulations apply only to companies that target Israeli customers. If a binary options or forex company targets customers abroad exclusively, it will not be regulated by the ISA. Thus, to ensure that the new law not apply to them, companies need only exclude Israeli clients. A quick visit to the websites of several binary options firms does indeed prompt messages saying the service is not available to Israelis. Shurki says he is aware that the new regulations will not solve the problem of call centers that are defrauding people abroad, but says that such activity is not under the ISAs jurisdiction, in the same way that the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) only protects British citizens and the CFTC only protects Americans. If an American company tried to sell securities to Israelis, it would be our job to protect our citizens, not the Americans responsibility, he explains, although he adds that the ISA does have very good information exchanges with its foreign counterparts. Yes, but when an Israeli company steals from people in another country, is that not a crime It is a crime, says Shurki, but it8217s not a crime for his authority to investigate. Theres no such thing as a vacuum of authority. If an Israeli commits fraud or misrepresentation, thats the purview of the Israel Police. The French connection Perhaps nowhere is the hand-wringing and acrimony over Israel-based forex and binary options trading more anguished than in the community of French Jews living in Israel. In January of this year, a cover story of the French-language Israel Magazine , a monthly glossy magazine and website serving the French-speaking community in Israel and the Diaspora, was titled, Forex, is it kosher 8216A generation of young people is in the process of perverting themselves into worshipers of the golden calf8217 8212 journalist in a piece warning about Forex In the introduction to the piece, journalist Andre Darmon writes, The point of this article is not to point a finger at some of our fellow citizens or co-religionists, because the phenomenon is global, but to raise awareness that a generation of young people is in the process of perverting themselves into worshipers of the golden calf. And that earning a living does not mean everything is permissible These call centers hire lost young souls, writes journalist Ilana Mazouz in Alliance, a French-Jewish Internet magazine, many who do not speak Hebrew or English, and for a short time provide the illusion of a normal life in Israel. Some rabbis have forbidden people from working in the industry, calling it theft, while rabbinic lectures on the Internet in French bear titles like Forex, dirty work and Amalek. Again, numbers are hard to come by for how many young French speakers are employed in the industry. Didier F. a French-Jewish businessman, told The Times of Israel that after he graduated from the IDC-Herzliya, many of his fellow students were recruited by forex and binary options companies. Didier asserts that many owners of forex websites are members of a French-Jewish community of conmen who are hiding from French law enforcement in Israel, where the police, he alleges, dont bother them over-much. As previously reported in The Times of Israel, about 10 recent immigrants from France were charged last year with cyber crimes and telephone scams, while France has reportedly sent Israel 70 additional formal requests for judicial assistance for cases of suspected fraud. A movie was recently made in France about one of these alleged fraudsters. The movie is called 8220Je Compte sur Vous, French for 8220I8217m counting on you.8221 I love when they say French aliyah has increased so much now it8217s 7,000 people, says Didier. It8217s great, I8217m happy about it. But then you see that many of them are working in the forex industry or binary options industry. You go to Tel Aviv today, when you say to someone in the French community, I work in finance, they immediately think that you work in this shit. Adds Didier: Even if its a small amount of money, theyre stealing money from poor people. Its destroying families. Some people have killed themselves. According to a report in Le Nouvel Observateur, a French news weekly, lAutorite des Marches Financiers, the French securities authority, received a staggering 4,500-plus complaints about forex and binary options fraud in 2014. Those forex and binary options complaints constituted 37 percent of all complaints about securities fraud received by the authority in that year. The majority of the forex transactions that prompted those complaints originated in Israel, the article claims. What does Google have to do with this There is yet another piece of the binary options empire, and it relates to the way Israeli firms manage to reassure customers of their ostensible integrity, via Google. Lets say you are a potential binary options customer. A company has approached you about making a deposit, but you are not sure, so you decide to do your homework. You Google, Are binary options legitimate You will get a list of results, one or two of which may be fraud warnings from the US regulatory body, the CFTC. The first few pages of search results, however, are dominated by sites that purport to warn you away from scam binary options sites and steer you toward legitimate ones. Upon closer examination, however, many of these 8220helpful8221 sites themselves turn out to be affiliates of the binary options companies. Next, you might Google, Are binary options legal in the United States Once again, many of the top results turn out to be websites affiliated with the industry itself, rather than an objective source of information. Some of these sites offer misleading statements and half-truths like There are at this moment no laws both on the federal and state level that forbid US citizens from trading binary options online. US law banning binary options is directed at the companies that market them, not the customers who buy them, so there is some truth in that statement. However, the SEC and CFTC clearly warn investors that they may not have the full safeguards of the federal securities and commodities laws if they purchase unregistered binary options that are not subject to the oversight of U. S. regulators. Aerial view of the coastal city of Herzliya Pituah, July 21, 2010. (Moshe ShaiFLASH90) Many countries, including Canada, publish updated lists of unregistered binary options companies that solicit customers in Canada in violation of the law. A recent Canadian list is here. The list features 37 companies. The Times of Israel went to the website of each company on this list. Some were no longer in operation. Others blocked users from Israel (presumably to avoid trouble with the Israel Securities Authority). One now hosts a porn site. Most were hard to pin down to a geographic location. However, based on first - and secondhand sources, The Times of Israel suspects that more than half of these companies, if not the overwhelming majority, operate from Israel. Investing with offshore companies operating outside of Canada can be risky and is a common red flag of investment fraud, the Canadian Securities Authority warns. Yet if you Google Canada, binary options, blacklist, once again, many of the top search results appear to be industry-affiliated sites, some of which recommend as legitimate the very same sites that are on the Canadian government8217s blacklist. Bryan Seely, a Seattle-based cybersecurity expert, tells The Times of Israel he is not surprised to hear of these Google search results, which, he explains, show Google8217s search engine being manipulated. Bryan Seely (Facebook) Google doesnt make a point of censoring stuff you can find drugs, you can find steroids, you dont have to go to the Silk Road. Google indexes the Internet and ranks things where it ranks them. Asked why, if this industry allegedly has so many victims, their voices dont show up higher in Google rankings, Seely says, the victims aren8217t as good at promoting what happened to them as the people in the binary options industry are at promoting the stuff they8217re selling. The victims aren8217t all going to each other8217s pages 8212 so each victim8217s page would typically have only a low Google ranking. Seely, who has been battling to raise public awareness of massive search engine manipulation in the locksmith industry 8212 another area, incidentally, where systemic fraud in the United States, with large-scale Israeli involvement, has caused scandal in recent years 8212 adds, here8217s the underlying issue: Is Google safe to use Or Bing What he8217s really asking, when it comes to the binary options industry, is whether searching Google will lead a potential investor who fears being defrauded to the independent, credible and accurate information he is seeking. The answer, it would appear, is no. Search engine optimization and the secret of success Over the last decade, Israel earned the nickname 8220start-up8221 nation for its high-tech prowess. But not many people are aware that the country is also a global leader in online marketing and search engine optimization (SEO), an expertise it acquired in the 8220shadow industries8221 of porn, online gambling and binary options, according to TheTime8217s 2014 report on the Israeli Internet industry. That expertise has plainly been applied by fraudulent binary options firms, whose affiliated sites show up high in Google searches 8212 sending unsuspecting and naive clients their way. Yoni S. an Israeli high-tech entrepreneur and SEO consultant, explains that without effective SEO, a fraudulent local player remains local, defrauding perhaps a few hundred victims in his vicinity. But with the power of Internet marketing, the scammer8217s reach can go global. The Times of Israel sent Google a request for an interview about the manipulation of its search platform by allegedly fraudulent businesses in the binary options industry, but Google did not respond. What do the police have to say The Times of Israel contacted the Israel Police repeatedly to ask them about alleged fraud in the forex and binary options industries. Their answers underlined how law enforcement is struggling to grapple with the soaring, fast-moving challenge of Internet crime. If there are investigations going on into fraud, etc. I don8217t have information on this. If someone has filed a complaint to the police, then let me know, Israel Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld replied. A second police spokesperson, Luba Samri, told The Times of Israel, We got lost in your question. Please focus it more. Who filed a complaint against whom Finally, The Times of Israel called a third spokesperson, Merav Lapidot, and asked her what the police are doing about suspected fraud on a vast scale in the forex and binary options industries in Israel. Israel Police spokeswoman Merav Lapidot, November 28, 2007. (Moshe ShaiFLASH90) This is something you8217re claiming. If no one has complained about it, there is no issue. You want us to check every company in Israel and see if by chance they are committing crimes8221 Told that people who worked inside the industry have described widespread potentially fraudulent behavior on the order of hundreds of millions of dollars, affecting tens of thousands of people, Lapidot replied: But no one has complained. I don8217t know what happens in every company. That8217s not our job. You could start a business tomorrow selling jewelry over the Internet. Will the police come to investigate your business To the suggestion that there may be thousands of victims abroad, Lapidot said, If there is someone who complained, we need to check that specific complaint. We8217re not going to check a whole issue. Is it possible that an entire industry, much of it allegedly corrupt, is slipping through the cracks between Shurki8217s Israel Securities Authority, which doesn8217t handle crimes hatched in Israel whose victims are abroad, and the police, which won8217t act unless specific complaints are filed with them Zvika Rubins, a PR consultant for the Israel Securities Authority, says the law simply hasn8217t caught up with the dubious and crooked methods people have devised to make money on the Internet. When you talk about bits and bytes, its not that simple. Was there a crime Where did it take place For instance, lets say you have a company and its incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and its servers are in India and it has a trading room in Israel. Is it an Israeli company I dont know. Rubins, who stresses that he is not an expert on criminal law, muses that if someone in Israel commits a crime against someone in, say, France, over the Internet, then it might be the responsibility of the French to open an investigation, trace the crime to Israel, and approach the Israeli police about it. Zvika Rubins (Facebook) Yoni S. the SEO expert, is outraged by this approach. In Israel its against the law to murder, but if I establish a company in Israel that murders people through the Internet in Malaysia, that8217s okay Seely sees the problem as extremely serious and growing: We8217re becoming a global culture and global economy, and physical borders don8217t exist on the Internet. It8217s become easier to scam people all over the world. We have no protections in place to prevent it and it8217s getting worse. Its a jungle out there, says Yoni, referring to the fact that people do all sorts of things on the Internet that would be illegal within their own borders. The Internet came in, no one has passed any regulation yet, and now there is an opportunity to make tons of money in the jungle.8221 A response from inside the industry Tali Yaron-Eldar, Israel8217s income tax commissioner from 2002 to 2004, in 2007 founded eTrader, a binary options firm that targets Israelis, along with Shay Ben-Asulin. who also co-founded AnyOption, one of Israel8217s largest binary options companies with revenues in the tens of millions of dollars. In 2011, Ben-Asulin was indicted by the United States for securities fraud, and last month he was convicted of fraud by an Israeli court for helping an Israeli credit card company, ICC-CAL, illegally clear billions of shekels of charges from porn, binary options and gambling websites, as well as conceal the number of canceled transactions. For his crimes, Ben-Asulin will do five months of community service and pay a fine of less than 1 million. Tali Yaron-Eldar (Screenshot Channel 10) In a 2014 interview (Hebrew) with Israel8217s Channel 10 news, when asked if she was discomfited by the fact of young demobilized soldiers and old pensioners losing all their money trading binary options, Yaron-Eldar responded: 8220Ask the people who invested and lost their money. All of them knew they were entering something risky.8221 The Times of Israel contacted Yaron-Eldar to ask her about alleged fraud within the binary options industry. To the extent that this is true, she said, it applies to unregulated companies. 8220The companies with a license are very careful,8221 she says. 8220AnyOption a company she is associated with has a Cypriot license. It is very careful to follow the law. It is being watched all the time.8221 In Yaron-Eldar8217s view, and contrary to the opinions of other people interviewed for this article, Cypriot regulation is very tough, on a par with the UK8217s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Asked about the fact that the Canadian government has included AnyOption on a list of companies illegally soliciting Canadian citizens, Yaron-Eldar replies, 8220Not that I am aware of.8221 In fact, Yaron-Eldar insists that AnyOption is not an Israeli company at all. 8220AnyOption does not have offices in Tel Aviv. It8217s a company that operates from Cyprus.8221 Indeed, a perusal of anyoption reveals no references to Israel. Nevertheless, it is no secret that hundreds of employees go to work each day at AnyOption8217s offices at 38 Habarzel Street in Tel Aviv8217s Ramat Hachayal neighborhood. How does she explain this discrepancy 8220They8217re not working for the same company,8221 she says. 8220They8217re working for AnyOption Israel, not AnyOption Cyprus. The company they work for is a service provider to the company in Cyprus.8221 In other words, AnyOption (like many other binary options companies with similar corporate structures) is not in fact an Israeli company, according to Yaron-Eldar8217s reasoning. This means that it, and many others like it, is subject to Cypriot law and regulation, not Israeli law. Since much of the regulated part of the binary options industry is subject to Cypriot regulation, the honesty or dishonesty of those firms may hinge on the strength and honesty of Cypriot law enforcement. Where are the victims The Times of Israel contacted the FBI to see if anyone had complained about forex or binary options call centers in Israel, but the agency did not respond. ASIC, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, replied in an email, We don8217t comment on operational matters, this includes confirming or denying if we have received complaints about a particular matter or not. A French government spokeswoman, however, confirmed that France has been having problems with forex fraud emanating from Israel. Yes, there are some cases of fraud, as you say,8221 she said. 8220Forex is not per se a fraud but it can be used for fraudulent objectives. We have had some cases between France and Israel, and we are in touch with the Israeli authorities about this. There is a very good cooperation between the two countries and the two services on this issue.8221 Back to Australia Ariel Marom, the mysteriously disappeared former forex employee who wrote that anguished 2014 letter to the Knesset, warned of the fallout when the extent of the corruption in the binary options industry in Israel is exposed. 8220What happens when thousands of Turks, Russians, Spaniards, Italians and French figure out that the scam they fell for was carried out from here, in Israel8221 he asked in his letter. 8220Are our regulators waiting for synagogues to start blowing up all over the world to shut this thing down Dan Guralnek, the Australian immigrant, has drawn his own conclusions. 8220This amount of dishonesty would never be allowed to exist in Australia,8221 he says. 8220They would shut down the industry overnight.8221 Guralnek recently became engaged to an Israeli woman. But he hopes to persuade her to move back to Australia with him, in part because of the high cost of living that drove him to work in binary options in the first place, and in part because of the corruption he has encountered. Now I see corruption everywhere I look,8221 he says. 8220Anywhere where there8217s no light shining on the corruption in this country, it feels like its growing.8221 CoursTorah, the website of a Francophone synagogue near Tel Aviv8217s Hamedina Square, has a page on its website warning against the binary options industry, headlined 8220Stop the Scam8221 8220Many people you know work directly or indirectly for these scam websites,8221 reads the page, warning that binary options and the majority of forex companies operating from Israel are fraudulent. It advises congregants to 8220run away from these companies8221 And it issues an evidently all too necessary reminder: 8220Let us remember the eighth commandment, 8216Thou shalt not steal.8221Binary Option Robot Info The Best Resource for Binary Options Trading Binary options are open to a vast pool of traders because they allow subtle investments limits which make them more affordable to a variety of people. The popularity of binary options has come as a surprise, and it is baffling a lot of individuals who are still to come to terms with this new wave in financial markets. Most people expect many countries to embrace binary options as a key player in the financial industry but to most people surprise they are not universally accepted. Some states did not take long to identify the potentiality of binary options, for instance, Cyprus was amongst the fast nations to recognize the possibilities and financial potential that binary options come with. On the contrary, other countries are so much against binary options to the extent of ignoring their primary existence. It is hard for binary options traders in such destinations because they are not aware of what to expect, and they are highly taxed to transact using binary options platforms. Also, in these countries, binary options trading is neglected and not regulated which makes it risky for traders because there is high volatility, and cases of scam are so obvious in such unregulated markets.

States can create particular conditions by creating regulatory bodies, rules and standards that guide most of the market activities. Regulation of binary options trade enables traders to feel more secure and is motivated to trade because they know they are protected by legal standards and laws which make it difficult for people and brokers to breach the contract. The United States and Israel are at the forefront of creating regulation policies, and some people think such policies are strict. The increase in policies and laws helps seal loopholes that may result to people being frauded of their hard earned dollars. A market with more policies ensures there is sanity ion the market and the traders relate with the brokers under legal terms and authority. Israle stock market performance The Relationship Between Traders, Brokers and The Government in Israel The link between the three major stakeholders in Israel is described with complexity of relationships. In Israel binary, options are regulated by Israel securities authority. Israel securities authority has been perceived by many as being too tight on binary options issues in the country. The regulatory body was initiated in 1968 and continues to be a primary regulator in the countries financial markets. The initial mandate of Israel securities authority was to curb and reduce insider trading, fraud and other financial malpractices which negatively affect the safety of investors in the small Jewish state. Israel took long to take binary options as an important niche in capital markets trading. When Israel elevated the capital gains tax most traders in the country started seeking other avenues to increase their profits through financial capital investment. Binary options and Forex trade provided an ideal opportunity with foreseeable advantages and gains in financial markets. This shift of most Israel traders to forex and binary options resulted in the collapse of the Tel Aviv stock exchange. The drop in Tel Aviv stock exchange sales was apparently blamed on the entry of binary options into the country financial trade. The government watched hopelessly as binary options took over finance trading markets reducing the number of people trading in the traditional financial markets, for instance, the Tel Aviv stock market. The government took advantage of the situation and created a regulation body to reduce the cases of rising number of fraud and scam cases in the binary options trade. Regulation of binary options trading in Israel In the year 2010 the government started to regulate binary options trade, this activity was made official by creation of a set of laws and regulations. The famous (Amendment 42) was implemented in 2015 and provided a guideline and a framework for binary options trading creating sanity in the market that was previously marred by chaos and disorganization. This amendment so to it that all locally operating binary options brokers had to be registered within a set deadline in order to continue rendering services in this lucrative market. To date, new brokers are required by law to enlist themselves with the regulatory body before they commence any activities in the country. The regulator has drafted a number of requirements that brokers in Israel binary options trading market have to meet. The body closely follows most of the activities of the brokers to ensure the requirements are met without fail. Requirements to be met by all brokers in Israel Before brokers are required to trade in the Israel financial markets using binary options there are conditions that they have an obligation to meet brokers, have a duty to operate on a particular minimum capital that is computed in relation to the total trading volume. Among other conditions, traders are required to observe strict market restrictions. Brokers are required to provide quarterly and yearly reports on various subjects to both binary options dealers and the Israel security authority report all transaction to the Israel security authority and report their duties and activities to the individual traders. These regulations serve to protect traders from scam and also ensure that the government benefits through taxes. Unlike an unregulated market a regulated market provides security to the traders and increases the total trade in such a market. Long term Israel Equity performance Market protection and binary options traders Consumer protection is a significant factor in most markets . consumer protection can be created by consumer organizations, government agencies, non-governmental lobby groups and sometimes even producers themselves. Consumer protection is an important tool to contribute to creating sustainability in most markets. Consumers require to be protected from aggressive advertisements, abnormal pricing and to ensure organizations deliver what they promise to. Consumer protection is a continuous activity that is every government top priority when they create laws and regulations to govern and promote safe trade especially in binary options trade where there have been an incidences of scam in which most customers lose their deposits. Additional rules in binary options advertising are aimed at promoting a more educative advertisement strategy since most consumers are not aware of the risks involved in this trade. Many brokers are not sincere to clients in that they tend to conceal the involved risks to their customers and prospective customers. This behavioral activities is very unacceptable and can result in clients being forced to trade in unacceptable risks that they are not even aware of themselves. To respond to this government agencies regulating binary options has made it mandatory for brokers to include risk warnings in most of their advertisements to make the consumers aware of the risks they face. This has made advertisement of binary options through online media difficult because most online advertisements have to meet a certain word count. Google advertisements are also difficult to make since they require a full risk disclosure. Regulatory authorities have to ensure the safety of the traders by making sure that the binary options brokers assess the client suitability to participate in binary options trading. Brokers have to make sure operators are aware and understand the risks involved in these trades. Traders who want to join the binary option trade are required to fill particular registration forms and questionnaires before making deposits. It is also a requirement to for brokers to establish documentation of every transaction taking place in an organization. It is further a requirement by the regulatory body for all organizations in binary options trading in Israel to create a kitty to caution the traders against all potential risks. The regulator also makes sure that there is a leverage rate that is established and should be observed by the binary options brokers. High risk assets should create a leverage amount of up to 20 to 1 of the total trade value. Medium risk assets should be allocated a 40 to 1 of the trading value whereas the low risk assets are accorded a 100 to 1 ratio of the value traded. These changes in business operations and regulations have not made everyone happy in this particular market. The traders are enjoying a lot of comfort and protection whereas binary options brokers are expressing a lot of discomfort because of the increased regulations that are in the favor of the client. It has been noted by some stakeholders in the legislation bodies that these rules will cause some brokers to exit the market. Other dealers in the market will be forced to resort to mergers and partnerships to increase their ability to compete. These regulations are aimed to protect the traders which will result in the growth of the number of traders which will make binary options trading more vibrant than before in the unregulated era. Israel monument of tolerance Consequences and benefits of strict binary options trading regulation The strict regulation has affected different stakeholders in this business differently depending on an individual perspective strict regulation has both active and adverse effects of the general trading environment. Traders in binary options in Israel can now carry on their transactions in a more safe environment that is regulated by the Israel Securities Authority. Binary trading as a re3sult of strict regulation is now user friendly and reliable than before with high percentage of consumer safety and expected formalities in all the activities. Due to the regulation requirement for provision of the risk information to the traders consumers are now much aware of the options they have and their expectations. The prohibition of wrong and decisive advertisement has ensured honesty in the advertisements and less cheating of trades. Although these regulations have had unlimited benefits to the traders and the regulation bodies some traders perceive them as unfriendly which has caused them to relocate to other less regulated markets. Less regulated markets elsewhere also features cheap operating costs since not many monetary securities and protocols are required. It is even worse for the brokers in Israel because the law forbids traders from using brokers that are not regulated and certified by Israel securities authority. Huge fines and cost of doing business have really affected binary options brokers in the market making it even harder to operate in the market.

Israel Binary Options Conclusion Binary options have continued to feature global markets entry . Israel was among the few nations who have identified the critical role of binary choices in the financial industry. This resulted in a close supervision of the activities of the traders with the aim of protecting traders and other investors in that financial market. It has been useful for traders in these markets since consumer safety is assured by strict rules and regulations which are clients friendly. Education on the risks and formalities involved in the trade is provided to traders even before they enlist with any broker.
