🚫 Final evaluation of IM Academy 🚫

Finally, and in a few words, our recommendation is: DO NOT INVEST WITH IM Academy.

As we mentioned before, it is a financial company located in a place where you will not have protection from the law in case of being harmed, that is, you will not be able to claim anyone if an unfortunate event occurs such as the sudden loss of your funds or the closure of the company.

In case of problems, it is most likely that the authorities of your country will not be able to do anything. As a client of this company you are unprotected!

Investing with unregulated brokers or brokers based in such countries is very risky. It is best to invest with a regulated broker, based in a serious country.

    With all due respect, the distribution of financial products, must be regulated, in my experience and I have not been a year or two, I have been in trading for about 5/6 years, in some courses that I have seen IM, for which I have not I have paid not a euro, you learn the same as with Zartex, "who does not educate expires" "HFX" etc ... They are regular courses throwing bad, I have seen many methodologies throughout my career as a trader, IM and its methodology are very precarious , multi-level or also known as Ponzi scheme, if they present certain types of attitudes, if they are illegal, otherwise, it is known that it is not a broker and it is known that it is a pseudo academy.

    I imagine that because of how I have talked about them, they will say the classic phrase: You are going to believe, to a person who has no results. As if they knew all the people who are in this world, long before the vast majority of them.

      Hello Jacob, thank you for providing your comments, the IM Academy broker / school (or supposed school) in its terms and conditions mentions having a relationship with iMarketsLive.com, a broker with a very negative reputation that has SCAMMED thousands of investors and also said exactly the same as you, who is not a broker, who is an academy. In reality it is like a pyramid scheme what they use to attract new clients.
      The CNMV (Spanish Financial Regulator) announced that IM Academy was carrying out illegal investment activities. This Supposed academy is a Fraud that tries to SCAM people by pretending that they are giving Investment courses or whatever to deceive clients and make them invest in a broker with which they are associated to end up stealing all the money from their clients. Be Alert, do not fall into their traps and entanglements, do not allow yourself to be manipulated.

    Thank you very much for always informing us, if you need information you have to see a series of videos by a youtuber named Tamayo, who delves more deeply about what this fraudulent company is, in advance I am grateful for his hard work, which has helped me a lot, and there is a broker that many youtubers are promoting one called BINOMO and the other Darwinex, an excellent day.

      Hello Adrian, what you tell us is helpful, where are the investments made, with them or with another broker? Thanks for asking about Tradeando .net. This broker / school is a SCAM, many have appeared who pretend that they want to teach and that they end up stealing your money with lies and falsehoods.

    SWINDLE. If you are one of those who are inside and you start to hurt around here, you are even sadder. open your eyes and ask your people for help to get out of the scam. Everything can be arranged. I feel very sorry for everyone involved in this scam, they are vulnerable people and IM takes advantage of their wallets.

    Hi, I really have been in this academy for 5 months and I am delighted by everything, by the education they give, the process and development that I am having and the wonderful people that I am meeting in this academy and I say the same thing that others are wrong, it is not A broker is an academy although it is true that they had a problem when they arrived in Spain a few years ago because if they had an investment section and had to remove it and therefore the warning and I do not know the company's email but I do know They have contacted several times although right now I can't tell you what it is, although you can look at it and the headquarters is in the United States, I hope this information is useful for you ✌✌✌ ah and something else before starting here they also told me about all the problems The old ones of the company really is one of the places where I have seen more transparency but before I started and saw it for myself I thought it was a scam so I invite you to see the platform and then you can give a a true opinion of all this

    I have to say that the experience that each one has with the person who shares IM with them is independent of how the person does it. I have been in the academy for a year and I am for trading + team development. There are people who are not educated correctly in the industry and do marketing that invades the person, but there is a vast majority who are educated, do it correctly and legitimately.
    The thing that IM is not registered as an investment company is like that, because it is not an investment company but an education company. They provide education, live classes from the world's most recognized educators on TradingView at all times, (Examples of educators: Jonathan Núñez, Christian Adell, John Dollery, Javier Vazquez Palacios, Mike Navarrete) to analyze the markets but never them they can control an account in trading. The programs with which we operate and analyze are Metatrader (Independent of the academy), TradingView and brokers that have nothing to do with IM. We are the ones who operate and use the tools to get results in a faster way.
    But if they have shared this with you, do marketing and talk to people, because you have unfortunately had a person who does not understand that he is in an academy with a crazy education.
    I'm just saying that if people like Bob Proctor, Floyd Mayweather, have joined IM, it's not because they don't know what IM is. NBA players developing this, academy leaders from the MKT part of Forbes time after time ...
    I understand that sometimes there are people who do not really understand what is trading or what is network marketing. People like Tonny Robbins support the Network Marketing industry, people like Robert Kiyosaki, etc.
    Here I share my most sincere opinion, a person who distrusted IM and today I am grateful for the development that I have taken both in trading and in personal development.

    Good Morning. We appreciate correcting the information about what IM Academy is a broker. So far the education given seems to me to be very responsible. We appreciate sending the warning they are about since I am not blindfolded to make a good decision. The link is expired. Multilevel is not prohibited and it is a personal decision of each one. Sometimes the academy is spoken badly but they offer another. I am not saying it is your case. Thanks for your clarity.

      Hi Gloria, thank you for sharing your experience with IM Academy. We do not believe that it is very reliable or transparent, it gives almost no data on which companies are behind it.
      In its terms and conditions, it mentions iMarketsLive.com, a broker with a rather negative reputation (like that, like that). If you have more information about the company, we ask you to share it with us, especially if it is information that you think can help other people who invest with this company.

      Do you have names of advisers, numbers, emails from which they have contacted you? Where they are located? Do you remember how you found this broker in the first place? Help avoid more scams.

      regards

    Apart from speaking badly of the multilevel system emphasizing that the mlm is a pyramid system and therefore a scam that you would not recommend, I clarify that Amway, herbalife and avon x say only some are not in the ranking of network companies with the first 3 positions worldwide for fun or that they have scammed their entrepreneurs and prospects ... I think you passed that little detail too, besides I inform you that the IM company works with other brokers) eg: IQ option just to name one ...

    When a person decides to undertake, he must understand that mlm, as in any business he starts, is charged and paid for certain results, not for time invested as happens with an employee.

    It is also not logical that the average person takes 15 years to prepare to look for a job or in a traditional business, to have an economically normal lifestyle or rather survive by paying basic personal and family expenses, which can take 5 years or more or a whole life and pretend to get rich in record time in a few months in a business and in a market that you do not know or know how to work ...

    If the academy gives you the opportunity to learn trading and develop mlm (optional for those who need to fund their accounts while preparing) what is the problem?
