The South Africa Reserve Bank and SARS froze bank account of a 19 year old forex trader with R21 million in it

What does this mean for South African traders?

The young trader who’s name is known to this publication is embroiled in a battle with the South African banking regulatory body The Reserve Bank of South Africa (SARB) over $1 million dollar forex withdrawal which caught the attention of the prudential authority.

“Me and my friends started trading in 2017 , and our target was to reach $1 million USD, we made withdrawal here and there for personal use but our biggest withdrawal was R14 000 000.00” said young trader who can’t be named for safety reasons.

The unemployment rate in South Africa rose to 27.6 percent in the first quarter of 2019 from 27.1 percent in the previous period. It is the highest jobless rate since Q3 2017.

As hope of employment amongst the youth deteriorates with 6.20 million remains unemployed, thousands of youth seek refuge in the hands of digital entrepreneurship businesses such as Forex, Crypto Currencies and Multi Level to survive.

“This is just a clear attack on millions of unemployed black youth of South Africa who now resort to forex trading to make end meet. This government is not happy we making a living on our own” said one social media user.

    This is literally bullshit… The gorv is now against us when we try to make living.

    Education has failed us and gorv knows that I have several qualifications but I’m still struggling to get job.

    Now that we traders have find ways to make living to keep us from the street he’s against that.

    I think the old people in the parliament must stop being greedy. They’re all old age the majority of organization there’s above 60 what is that those people who are sitting there are even struggling to use smartphone.

    Ayi this gorv is not fair not fair at all. We still going to trade and they will give us our money… If tht is difficult we as traders need to gather and raise the funds to fuck government up

    what they are doing to this young boy is wrong. Forex is legal not only in South Africa but worldwide!!! I’m also a 21 year old trader who has more than a million in my account and I’m threatened by this. Just because we chose to avoid the nonsense system of working for white people and invested in our self doesn’t make us illegal. We are not scared to risk and go against the system so we can be millionaires!!! I’m not going to say much but they should do whatever petty investigation they want to do and give that boy his money, period.

    This is real bullshit, now that we have found new ways to make multimillions via Forex, Binary, Cryptocurrencies and Multi Level Marketing, now we must feel scared because of our own government, the very same government that has been up in arms recently pestering us for our votes” and after voting for them this is the thanks we get” … They’re really bad people. As Donald Trump complained about African leaders asking if they’re human beings or animals by treating their own citizens unfairly, I have now came to realise he was actually right all along. Sies!!! Africa will never progress, never ever!!! What a shame!!!

    There is definitely no reason behind they action, the only thing they are doing is stopping the Young guy to make more money,we are being limited to making money. If we dont stand up and ask to be given reasons for this account being blocked then we will forever be limited to doing many things at a young age, the young guy has provided evidence of where the if from.

    He should sue the bank. It is the young boy’s constitutional right to engage in any investments so long as the investment is not a crime. As far as i know there are laws on forex trading in S.A and thats is why there are registered and regulated forex brokers there like FXCM and Hot Forex so the central bank there knows what forex trading is unless they went to bush school and are not qualified to hold a position of monetary control in the highest bank in the land. Just advice the young man to sue the Central bank and the commercial bank thats confiscated his money. The only reason they could be holding on to the boy’s account is if the money was solicited client money that he is claiming to be his own funds. Lets wait and see

    Yeyy we will stop trading because you freeze our accounts and we’ll most def tolerate the way in which this bank settled this matter.This makes me angry because it clear that our own country does not believe in its people so why should we support any political affairs in this country anyways. This kid should be given his money back in full he deserves it because we as traders know the sacrifice we put in our success as traders!!!!!!!
