Case Description
In its complaint, the US regulatory authority Commodity and Exchange Commisstion (CFTC) referred to the companies directly involved in the scam with the binary options around the brands BinaryBook, BigOption and BinaryOnline as “Yukom Enterprise”. The purpose is to indicate that the authorities regard the officially unaffiliated and not related companies as an organization (enterprise) led by their respective beneficial owners Yossi Herzog and Kobi Cohen.
The Israeli Yukom Enterprise Binary Options Scheme has been active in the market since 2013 and, according to the CFTC, operated its platforms until the end of 2018.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”11736″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
