Our Verdict at a Glance
TrueGuard verdict: High risk – we advise against depositing funds.
Our assessment of CenterPoint Securities is driven primarily by registration paperwork presented as if it were a trading licence. The sections below set out exactly what we checked and what we found.
CenterPoint Securities at a Glance
CenterPoint Securities markets itself as a trading platform promising access to forex, CFDs and related instruments. Its public face is the domain centerpointsecurities.com. No verifiable operating address could be confirmed, which is itself a disclosure failure for a firm handling client money.
What Our Checks Found
- Registration is not authorisation. CenterPoint Securities leans on paperwork connected to the US National Futures Association, but a company registration or peripheral filing does not license anyone to hold client funds or offer leveraged trading.
- Corporate opacity. Ownership and management are effectively anonymous, leaving clients with no identifiable counterparty if things go wrong.
- Marketing over substance. Bold profit language and bonus offers take the place of the risk disclosures a regulated firm is obliged to publish.
How This Type of Operation Works
The registration-as-licence trick that CenterPoint Securities relies on is one of the most common deceptions we encounter. A certificate of incorporation or a peripheral filing proves only that paperwork was lodged somewhere – yet it is displayed as if a financial authority had vetted the firm and stands behind client funds. Genuine authorisation is specific, searchable and names the exact trading entity.
The Withdrawal Pattern to Watch For
Complaints associated with operations like CenterPoint Securities follow a familiar arc: deposits and small early “profits” go smoothly, then withdrawal requests meet delays, surprise fees, tax demands or sudden account restrictions. By the time the pattern is obvious, the friendly account manager has usually gone quiet.
Could You Get Your Money Back?
Recovery from platforms like CenterPoint Securities is possible in many cases – the route depends on the payment rail used. Card payments may qualify for chargeback; bank transfers can sometimes be recalled or disputed through the receiving bank’s fraud team; and cryptocurrency, while harder, can be traced on-chain to exchanges where accounts can be frozen. Preserve every piece of evidence – receipts, emails, chat logs, wallet addresses – and do not pay any “release fee” requested to unlock a withdrawal; that is almost always a second round of the same scheme.

The TrueGuard Protection Checklist
- Verify the licence number directly on the regulator’s own register – never through a link the broker provides.
- Test the withdrawal process with a small amount before committing serious funds.
- Keep records of every interaction from day one – evidence gathered early is evidence that recovers money later.
- Confirm a real, verifiable office address and named directors.
- Search the firm’s name together with words like “withdrawal”, “complaint” and “scam” before depositing.
The Bottom Line
Weighing everything above, we see no basis on which CenterPoint Securities earns the benefit of the doubt. Legitimate brokers make verification easy; this one makes it impossible.
Before dealing with any trading platform, cross-check its claims against independent sources such as the US National Futures Association. Five minutes of verification is cheaper than any recovery.
