The Power of Threads on FPA
Creating a thread on FPA allows victims to share their documentation and information about a scam but can do so using an alias (username of your choice). Other victims are warned and when websites and brokers names are tagged appropriately, it is easy for anyone researching a company to find the FPA thread on page 1 of Google. The FPA community participates to answer questions and help identify clues. Moderators also participate and provide guidance to users on the site. Companies can be invited by the Creator of a thread to participate directly in the thread.
