I have never met a worse liar; showing 20 pips of profit while hiding a 200-pip loss.

Scam. Just made losses with him

Scam scam scam scam, don't invest with this scammer they just take your money and not pay you and looking for excuses tell you there is no fees so they can take more charges from you. Don't give you hard work money to them. They run a Telegram group Ben the gold trader and you can trade yourself and learn from different people not this scammer. They also run investment plans which they don't pay you and scam you for money after they block you delete you from group. DTAY AWAY SCAM SCAM SCAM

Thread carefully or you will get played, none of what you see is real. It's all virtual money and your real money is their pockets. Shame!!
I have enrolled with "S take Xcel", I have made a significant amount in just few weeks.

Ben Rose is a proper and full scammer. He lied to all his customers about the risk settings in his fund. While everyone understands that trading carries risk Benjamin had told everyone that there would be a stop loss at 50% which would ensure the maximum loss would be 50% of the investment. But in fact everyone lost 95% of their money. Obviously Ben made sure to collect his fees and all his money before this happened. He then deleted all the telegram and whatsapp messages/channels, he deleted his website, he just vanished…. With our money
But we did find out who he is. His real name is Benjamin Rosenfeld and he's from North London. Watch out for him

My initial review was removed, because Trustpilot support didn't believe my claims.
I read Brett's review and wanted to chip in with some information. The following is my review that was taken down:

Fraud warning
This website is well created and reviews here looks real, but it's all a facade.

A quick look at scamadvisor com will warn you:
We detected references to Multilevel Marketing efforts which are often scams.
This website is very young and has a suspiciously high number of reviews.
This website is (very) young.

ben-trades com is the new domain of bentrades com. The website content is almost the same. The reviews are almost the same. People figured out that bentrades com was a scam and the owner created a new site with the same scamming scheme.
Another domain is ben-trade net. This domain is no more to be found, but could be an earlier version from the same owner.

On the website he claims to be Ben Rose and links to a genuine article. We don't know for sure that Ben Rose created the website or someone just uses his name.
To back that up, he doesn't write Rose on the webpage. Only Ben.
The old bentrades com website claims to be beni trades, who there is no genuine trace of. Only self made articles and a now gone Instragram profile.

The /signup site is not as polished as the front site. A lot of reused content with some odd warnings that you shouldn't download the app and you must make your full deposit in one transaction.

When looking into the reviews they seem to use the same theme. As if they were AI generated. I threw a couple into an AI text recognizer and it was 100% AI generated.
Some of the reviews talk about a Telegram group (red flag) but "Ben" is using WhatsApp (also a red flag). The profile icon on WhatsApp is grabbed from the video on the website.
Some reviews doesn't even talk about trading and are just 5star reviews mumbling about. The first 4 star review is talking about signals. Signals are not offered by "Ben", so this review must be for something else.

I haven't thrown money in and don't plan to. Remember the best traders can make 20% a year. So when he claims he makes minimum 15% a month, you know it's a hoax.

Edit 20-08-2024:
9:02 My review was reported by the owner and hidden from view.
12:48 My review was approved by a human at Trustpilot and unhidden.
I then got 8 emails over an hour that I received a reply on my review.
14:52 Owner thinks I reviewed the wrong domain and asked me to move it.
14:53 Owner requests more information to validate me. As stated in my initail review: "I haven't thrown money in and don't plan to."

Response to owner reply:

The owner claims to be Ben Rose and links to the same article as the website. The same link I talked about in my initial review. Nothing new here.

"you are claiming one business is owned by the other when the faces and people are clearly different."
I see different images and text, yes. But I see no legal documentation to back that up. Like a Company Registation Number. Even the contact details on the domain is hidden for privacy.

I want to point out the reply doesn't say anything about the known bad website bentrades and ben-trades are identical with only the text and images changed.
The owner of bentrades has the source code and setup of the whole operation and could easily change it up a bit and move to a different domain.

The Instagram page that's linked to on the page, officialbentrades, has been removed. The Facebook page BenTradesFB has 3,5k likes and 0 posts. Maybe some of the likes have been purchased?

There is no accredited performance record meaning this is high risk.

People should make an informed decision when choosing to throw money this way. I am here to warn them of anything suspicious and fishy I see and the risk they take.

I wanted to add "Ben"s latest response, but since I can only have 4000 characters in a review, I have to skip that. I will email it to Trustpilot for backup.
Instead I want to shed some light on the 3 new fake reviews that appered after "Ben" blew people's accounts. This is of course reported to Truspilot support multiple times, but they don't answer me anymore regarding this domain. Here is a section of what I've reported to Trustpilot:

2 of the new reviews are bogus!
They both give 3 stars which is very atypical for someone who just lost money. You can see the other reviews giving 1 star.
Also they mention another "much better" trading platform.
trustpilot[dot]com/reviews/66f216dfebdb79c1de8ce853
Beyond Standard
trustpilot[dot]com/reviews/66f08de83f058e316998f879
StakeXcel

I am currently fighting Beyond Standard, as they of course want my review removed.
The newest one is Abhash trustpilot[dot]com/reviews/67086d855ac6242f7d272513
A generic review not going into detail, but instead redirecting people to probably another scam site. Just like the first two.

Ben was the most irresponsible account manager I have ever encountered, he removed the 50% stop loss from our PAMM account without telling us and blew almost the entire account. After nearing a stoploss the first time, he locked our funds in the account saying it was some kind of saftey feature for 2 weeks. I gave hime the benefit of the doubt, which I now deeply regret, and continued with him. 3 weeks later, my 105 000 usd is 3800 usd. He deleted all telegram groups which allowed to communicate with him and other members instantly and just disappeared. That was a years salary for me down the drain. Anyone who has any information about this Ben Rose or whatever his real name is should reply here so the world can be warned about terrible person who has lost 2,5 million usd of other peoples money.

Poorly managed bot which glitched out and blew multiple account. Aside from that the bot did run well over a few months but clearly can't deal with volatility.
In terms of ben, he has no business etiquette. Any service user that would ask questions he would be extremely rude and passive aggressive to them. If he spent more time managing the bot more effectively instead of being a complete control freak over the telegram chat. Then this would not have happened.

Be careful!!! ⚠️ The bot blew all my accounts that were using it. The bot unexpectedly opened about 20 trades at the same time during a big event and everything were gone in under a minute. I’m glad I didn’t have much in that account. I've enrolled the wining team StakeXcel, it pays promptly and returns are high.

Their account management service blow your accounts, scam!

He blew my account in two days, what a scam. I read all good reviews before join his trading bot and i got scammed. Now Ben deleted the profile here and will join with a new name soon!. This guru should prisoned.

Scammer. RUN and don’t look back!

ben doesn't know what he's doing as a trader. he was just gambling and i would have just be better in a casino. STAY AWAY from him

If I could give 0 stars I would.

His ‘bot’ maxed on 25+ trades in the space of 30 minutes and they all got liquidated as my account had been exposed past the minimum levels.

From £750 to £11 within an hour.

This is after speaking to Ben over Telegram the day before, I was seeking reassurances as the multiple trades already in play were running at a huge loss. He said to ‘ride it out’.

Looking on here too, seems everyone was victim to the same shambles.

Disgusting.

I knew it was a scam

ACCOUNT 35% LOST!

His lot sizing is ridiculous, his entries are terrible and drawdowns are hard to stomach

This guy truly doesn't know what he is doing. Anyone can do better than him

Today Ben Trades let all his accounts sit short (most at 50-60% drawdown) and highly leveraged before a critical news announcement. The trade price on the currency returned to normal but not before it wiped out all the money in the Ben-Trades accounts. If drawdown would have been limited or even paused auto trading, like in several other accounts I have. It would have simply ridden this out.

Ben clearly does not know how to manage his own bot or manage risk. There was the Fed announcement today, and the account was already in a large drawdown (we copy trade this account). After the announcement, his bot took multiple ill-advised trades and blew all accounts. To make matters worse, his bot malfunctioned and continued to take high lot size trades well after his account was blown, which put accounts with more balance in a serious jeopardy of being blown and a large drawdown. After this happened, Ben proceeded to mute the TG chat and delete all the comments of accounts being blown. He then sent a message saying he "would be back" and "had a stressful week" His website is now down. I have also noticed he has another Trust Pilot with poor ratings. This trust pilot will probably be abandoned after today as well.

Stay away!! You are better off going to a casino. Ben is just another Forex snake oil salesman. You might have high returns for a month or two, but the account will ultimately blow.

Blew a lot of accounts. STAY AWAY.
