Has anyone had any experiences with this platform? Not sure if it's legit or a scam. I'm a newbie to this forum so apologies if I haven't posted this correctly.

Scam. I can't access their website but I can see that their domain is only 47 days old. When you Google the name you are bombarded by fake content promoting it as not a scam - indicative that it is indeed a scam.
How did you come across it?0 -

I just looked at their website, and the English and grammar used are poor. It looks like it was written by AI or some sort of translation software. Why say 10 words when you can embellish into 1000 words? It's like the AI had the personality of Russell Brand.
It also uses American spelling.
The website is also missing any reference to their company registration. Genuine companies will be either a PLC or LTD. You are required to display your registration details and most put it in their footer. There are also no contact details. You won't have a clue where to go to find out who has taken your money.

I have just seen and read an article about a number of high profile people who use and seem to endorse 'Finance Phantom' but I am sure I recall Martin saying "If it seems to good to be true, then it is too good to be true" So I was wondering if you have any information about how it works, how your money increases and if it is a con or not? I understand that it night lead to a loss at times but everyone seems to be saying they make more than they loose.

*lose. Who are these high profile people, where did you see this and how did you find out about it? One of the classic scam advertising tactics is to tell you that someone high profile is investing in or via whatever it is but it's invariably fake.lozmilzak said:I have just seen and read an article about a number of high profile people who use and seem to endorse 'Finance Phantom' but I am sure I recall Martin saying "If it seems to good to be true, then it is too good to be true" So I was wondering if you have any information about how it works, how your money increases and if it is a con or not?

But if you're not convinced just read the posts above...3 -
You might like to post a link to the article so we can all have a good laugh.lozmilzak said:I have just seen and read an article about a number of high profile people who use and seem to endorse 'Finance Phantom' but I am sure I recall Martin saying "If it seems to good to be true, then it is too good to be true" So I was wondering if you have any information about how it works, how your money increases and if it is a con or not?

I've never heard of the platform so I know nothing about it, but your mention of high profile endorsements convinces me that I would not touch it with a (very)^∞ long barge pole. Do not pursue this!!!! If you want to invest use your workplace pension and/or your ISA to invest in funds from reputable providers like Vanguard, iShares, Fidelity etc.
And so we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.2 -
