155. Finfluencer Crackdown 2025: What Traders Must Know About Fake Gurus & Clone Brokers
Regulators are finally cracking down on “finfluencers” in 2025, and traders need to understand what’s changing. In episode 155 of Let’s Talk Forex, Chris is joined by Erik and breaks down why regulators like the FCA and ASIC are targeting financial influencers, real enforcement cases (including James Pereira, Tyson Scholz, and the Abe Lim impersonation scam), and how young traders are being misled online. They also explain the rise of clone brokers, where the line is between education and illegal financial advice, and practical steps you can take to protect yourself. Whether you’re new to trading or simply tired of TikTok gurus, this episode gives you the context you need to stay informed and stay safe.
