F2 Trading Corp Review: Phillip Han fronts FX Trading Corp reboot
Shortly after the FX Trading Corp Ponzi scheme collapsed, the F2 Trading Corp reboot was announced.
Central to the scheme is Phillip Han, who on Facebook identifies himself as FX Trading Corp’s Global Master Distributor.
Whether Han had a hand in running FX Trading Corp and/or who he worked with is unclear.
What is clear is he made a ton of money ripping of Brazilians and, through F2 Trading Corp, is hoping to do it again.
Phillip Han is based out of Brazil itself.
Prior to getting involved in crypto scams, Han (right) was a Jeunesse distributor.
Right now F2 Trading Corp doesn’t exist beyond a dodgy Telegram group, list of scammers who’ve already signed up and compensation plan.
The good news is that’s all we need to review the company.
Read on for a full review of the F2 Trading Corp MLM opportunity.
F2 Trading Corp’s Products
F2 Trading Corp has no retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to market F2 Trading Corp affiliate membership itself.

- 15% of daily returns/commissions
- 10% of weekly returns/commissions
- 7% of returns/commissions earned over a rolling 15 day period
- 3% of returns/commissions earned over a rolling thirty day period
Residual Commissions (investment)
To qualify for residual investment commissions, an F2 Trading Corp affiliate must invest themselves and recruit two investing affiliates.
F2 Trading Corp pays residual commissions via a binary compensation structure.
A binary compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a binary team, split into two sides (left and right):
The first level of the binary team houses two positions. The second level of the binary team is generated by splitting these first two positions into another two positions each (4 positions).
Subsequent levels of the binary team are generated as required, with each new level housing twice as many positions as the previous level.
Positions in the binary team are filled via direct and indirect recruitment of affiliates. Note there is no limit to how deep a binary team can grow.
At the end of each day F2 Trading Corp tallies up new investment volume on both sides of the binary team.
Affiliates are paid an 8% residual commission on funds matched on both sides of the binary team.
Once paid out on volume is flushed from both sides of the binary team. Any leftover volume on the stronger binary team side is carried over into the following day.
Note that residual commissions are capped at $30,000 a day.
Residual Commissions (daily returns)
F2 Trading Corp pays residual commissions on returns via a unilevel compensation structure.
A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):
If any level 1 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.
If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.
F2 Trading Corp caps a 2% residual commission on returns at ten unilevel team levels.
How many levels an F2 Trading Corp affiliate earns residual return commissions is determined by the following criteria:
- Star 1 – generate $3000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for level 1
- Star 2 – generate $10,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 and 2
- Star 3 – generate $30,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 to 3
- Star 4 – generate $50,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 to 4
- Star 5 – generate $300,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 to 5
- Star 6 – generate $700,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 to 6
- Star 7 – generate 2,000,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 to 7
- Star 8 – generate $5,000,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 to 8
- Star 9 – generate $8,000,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 to 9
- Star 10 – generate $20,000,000 in accumulated weaker binary team side volume and qualify for levels 1 to 10

Conclusion
F2 Trading Corp is literally the same FX Trading Corp Ponzi scam with a different name.
It should be obvious that the same scammers are behind both companies, which makes due-diligence pretty easy.
F2 Trading Corp claims to generate external ROI revenue through trading bots.
We are an intelligent platform and we have a robot able of make thousands of daily operations with bitcoin and ethereum, our exchange has a database with more than 1,500,000 users.
This is of course baloney. F2 Trading Corp doesn’t have a bot any more than FX Trading Corp did.
Furthmore F2 Trading Corp’s business model fails the Ponzi logic test.
If Phillip Han and his co-conspirators actually had a bot capable of generating consistent returns of up to 3% a day, obviously they’d just run it themselves.
All F2 Trading Corp does is recycle newly invested funds to pay existing investors, making it a Ponzi scheme.
FX Trading Corp hit critical mass within a year and following regulatory warnings from Brazil and Spain, Han and his co-conspirators exit-scammed in late June.
In the aftermath of FX Trading Corp’s collapse, Han is believed to have fled to Dubai to enjoy his victim’s money.
Here he is a mere few weeks later, with an identical scam ready to roll out.
As with all MLM Ponzi schemes, the inevitable collapse results in the majority of participants losing money.
Just ask the majority of FX Trading Corp investors – though you might have to brush up on your Portuguese first.
Update 6th December 2019 – In what may be the start of an exit-scam, F2 Trading Corp has blocked Mexican affiliate investors.
Update 24th August 2022 – Philip Han is under criminal investigation in Brazil.
Sao Paulo Police are investigating Han’s and his wife’s involvement in F2 Trading Corp and five other Ponzi schemes.
From what I’ve seen those that invested in FX Trading are more interested in getting their capital back. Which they will do because they have been promised it back.
They are angry that all of their profit has been wiped out and in effect they have given FX Trading an interest free loan.
They are still paying withdrawals but due to the new one a month withdrawal rule these have dropped considerably. The capital you invested hasn’t yet been made available for withdrawal.
So while the money is gone they are still able to create the impression that nobody will lose out and investing more money is a good idea.
I follow Lisa Marie Holt and Wes Garner closely, and I think they actually came out net winners on this one. They are acting all shocked despite knowing from the start it’s a ponzi.
It never ceases to shock me the level of denial that people who have been scammed are in. So many people just cannot accept that their money is gone and they have been scammed. They truly believe they will get their capital back.
It’s sometimes really hard to be sympathetic to the victims.
Nothing was wiped out. Phillip Han, those he works with and the other top recruiting affiliates stole FX Trading Corp victim’s money.
That’s how a Ponzi scheme works. That’s how F2 Trading Corp will work.
FX Trading – Philip Han

Especially over the past few months, it seems like every third or fourth company that comes up for review is either from Brazil or targeting Brazilians.
Just the other day there was Wish Money, run by a corrupt Brazilian pastor without a care in the world.
Scammers like Han operate out in the open and with impunity at a local level. When are they going to make arrests?
Or has he permanently relocated to Dubai now?

You invested in a Ponzi scheme and got Ponzi scammed. Sorry for your loss.
