Forex4money complaints
After trying to explain to a Forex4money agent that we are a bitcoin trading service and are not happy with their commissions, the broker told us that he wanted to hear everything we have to say about their customer service. The broker told us he is not willing to take back our $120 deposit and instead stated we are the problem.
“[X] confirmed that he has been an entrepreneur for a long time and knew that other customers had complained about your company and do not want to deal with you. [X] stated that he was a member of the best business, he had been in the industry for long and [X] said you and he will not be getting along as he will be having his family and children and wife being harassed by your people.

Forex4Money does not have any significant income stream and is in dire need of capital. In addition, it does not have a minimum account requirement and no money deposits are required. A few customers even made a clear case that if Forex4Money goes down, the entire world will be affected.
Summary
It is never a good idea to spend large amounts of bitcoin on a small single transaction in fiat currencies. We recommend Bitcoin exchange rates in $B that are less than $50.
Bitcoin has hit one million USD in terms of supply with Bitcoin exchanges becoming more and more popular, and demand for bitcoins also increasing. With more people making payments in bitcoins and more users setting up wallets, there is a greater chance that there is an attempted attack on the system. As such, we recommend using exchange rates in bitcoin/fiat currency exchange where there is lower risk of an attack on the system. A trader should check the bittrex exchange or cold storage wallets before spending large amounts of bitcoin.
