Agast LTD Scam — Name-Drops FINMA, Sits on FINMA’s List

Verdict up front: Agast LTD (agastltd.net) sells forex, CFD and crypto trading with leverage up to 1:1000 and deposit bonuses up to 80%. Its “Regulation” section name-drops Switzerland’s regulator FINMA. FINMA’s actual response was to put Agast LTD on its warning list on 22 September 2026. Do not deposit.

The regulator it quotes has warned about it

Agast LTD’s site has a section headed “Regulatory framework”. It describes three things: the Legal Entity Identifier system run by GLEIF, the Swiss commercial register ZEFIX, and “Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority — FINMA is Switzerland’s independent financial regulator responsible for overseeing financial institutions, including brokers”.

What the section does not give is an LEI code, a ZEFIX entry or a FINMA licence number. It explains what those registers are without claiming a place in any of them. FINMA’s own record for “Agast LTD / agastltd.net” lists the company as not entered in the commercial register, at a Zurich address of Gottfried-Keller-Strasse 5.

Four million traders on a four-month-old domain

The homepage claims “4M satisfied traders”, business in “90+ countries”, “25+ industry awards” and a “Regulated company” badge. RDAP shows agastltd.net was registered on 1 June 2026. No award is named and no regulator is named.

Bonuses are the tell

Account tiers run Basic, Smart Start, Full Package and VIP, with a deposit bonus of 40%, 50%, 70% and 80%. Higher tiers add “individual investment plan” and “trust management” — meaning someone else trades your money. Deposit bonuses of this size are banned for retail clients across the EU and UK, because they are used to lock deposits behind turnover conditions that make withdrawal impossible. Leverage is offered “up to 1:1000”.

⚠ Verified evidence

  • FINMA placed “Agast LTD / agastltd.net” on its warning list on 22 September 2026, recorded as not entered in the commercial register.
  • agastltd.net was registered on 1 June 2026.
  • The site claims “4M satisfied traders” and “25+ industry awards” without naming any.
  • It offers deposit bonuses of up to 80% and leverage up to 1:1000.
  • Its phone number, +44 1975 968329, sits in the same number block as sterwen-sa.net (+44 1975 968285), another FINMA-listed site.

The same phone block as another FINMA-listed site

Agast LTD lists +44 1975 968329 for a Zurich address. sterwen-sa.net, which FINMA warned about in March, lists +44 1975 968285 for a Geneva address. Both are UK numbers from the same block, both sites carry the same footer links (Client Agreement, Privacy Policy, Conflict of Interest) and both end with “© [name] 2026. All rights reserved.” Two Swiss-branded brokers answering on neighbouring British lines is not a coincidence worth trusting.

What to do if you have already paid

Stop sending money, including any “tax”, “commission” or “unlock” fee requested before a withdrawal. Save the account dashboard, chat history and payment records. Report the site to FINMA and to the police where you live, and contact your bank or card issuer about the payments.

The verdict: Agast LTD quotes FINMA as part of its “framework”, gives no licence, offers 80% bonuses and 1:1000 leverage, and is on FINMA’s warning list as of 22 September 2026. Do not deposit.
