Market watchdog PSZÁF suspects that American registered company Freedom Rocks Inc., which is engaged in forex market trading, built a pyramid scheme in Hungary, origo.hu writes, based on MTI.
The PSZÁF said it was investigating operations of Freedom Rocks for conducting unauthorized investment services. The investigation concluded that activities of the company, which distributes sofware helping forex market trading, do not qualify as investment services or intermediation of investment services.
Last year, the PSZÁF investigated shoppers club Sciennet for similar reasons.
The All Hungary Media Group is firmly committed to freedom of expression and therefore applies a mostly "hands off" approach to comment moderation. Comments left by readers represent their own views and do not necessarily reflect the opinions or beliefs of the staff, editors or owner of the All Hungary Media Group, who nonetheless reserve the right to remove comments that are off-topic or which moderators consider to constitute "hate speech." Also note that in order to prevent spam we generally close entries off to comments several days after publication.
Note that we will be experimenting with some modifications to the commenting system over the coming days, with the aim of allowing users to post without a CAPTCHA system and other manual anti-spam gizmos. We will therefore be monitoring comments more closely, and if you have any related issues or observations, you can just leave them in a comment on any article.
