Is Round Broker a Scam? A CryptoCISO Investigation

CryptoCISO Risk Verdict
Elevated Risk · Score 70/100
Forensic assessment of Round Broker by the CryptoCISO blockchain intelligence team.

Threat Profile

Round Broker (http://www.roundbroker.com) positions itself as a digital-asset brokerage targeting everyday investors. Our analysts opened a case file after the platform surfaced in fraud-pattern monitoring.

Regulatory Posture

Our licensing review found no evidence that Round Broker is authorised by any competent regulator. References point only to an offshore incorporation in Australia, which grants company status but explicitly does not license forex or crypto trading. That gap leaves client funds without statutory protection.

Indicators We Flagged

  • Cloned or template website design shared with other flagged operators
  • Aggressive or unsolicited outreach and pressure to deposit quickly
  • Returns or bonuses advertised that are inconsistent with legitimate markets
  • No verifiable licence from a top-tier financial regulator
  • Account managers steering clients toward larger top-ups

On-Chain & Operational Notes

On-chain, platforms in this category tend to consolidate client deposits into a small set of collection wallets before dispersing them across exchanges and bridges. Capturing the deposit trail and counterparty addresses early is critical to any later tracing effort.

CryptoCISO Risk Verdict

Our assessment places Round Broker in the elevated risk band. The combination of unverifiable licensing and recurring fraud signatures is, in our experience, characteristic of platforms that do not return client funds on demand.

If Your Funds Are Exposed

If you have funds with this platform, stop sending additional deposits immediately and do not pay any ‘release’, ‘tax’, or ‘verification’ fee requested to unlock a withdrawal – these are themselves part of the fraud. Preserve everything: transaction hashes, wallet addresses, deposit receipts, chat logs, and the account dashboard. The sooner the on-chain trail is documented, the more options remain.
