Russian Authorities Track Down Illegal Brokers in Saint Vincent

Russian police and authorities crack down on illegal forex brokers registered in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, according to local media outlets. The move comes to protect traders and investors in the vast yet often-shady industry.
The number of the apprehended scammers remain undisclosed as of writing. According to the country’s Ministry of Internal Affairs, the said brokers were operating an illegal online trading scheme.

The authorities confirmed the arrests yesterday in an official statement. The initiated criminal proceedings occurred on suspicions of fraud and false representations.

Local reports say that the Russian police held over a dozen officers and approximately 40 private apartments. During the raid operations, the police captured computers and other documents as well.

Irina Volk, the official representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, said that about 21 million rubles received damage from the illegal activities. Volk gave information about the preliminary investigations and estimates of the Russian police on the large scale fraud.

The fake online brokers were disguising themselves as official representatives of Larson & Holts, a licensed forex broker. The apprehended suspects were registered in the Marshall Islands but did not have licenses by the Central Bank of Russia who regulates the foreign exchange industry there.

The Russian police also named some of the firms involved in the raid, MTS, and RBC. However, the authorities have not disclosed the names of the individuals involved.

According to the official police statement, the scammers operated a high yield investment program, otherwise called as HYIP. The minimum deposit required by the broker sits at 5,000 US dollars, and the returns were very promising.

Local police advised aspiring investors and traders to remain vigilant on the sites they that respect. An expert advised checking the broker properly before signing up.

It’s important to remain vigilant as more and more online brokerages keep popping up. But one fraud doesn’t generalize the industry. Fortunately, Saint Vincent is also home to some of the world’s leading and best forex brokers.

Fitness Tips – How to Boost Your Metabolism

One of the key factors in becoming fit and maintaining the new body is learning how to boost your metabolism. While exercise is important for boosting metabolism, it is certainly not the only method nor should it be. Maintaining peak metabolism requires both exercise and the proper exercise. It is essential for the two to work together as a team; neither one can accomplish the task by itself. It is the combination of diet and exercise that will allow a person to boost his o her metabolism and thus attain and maintain a healthy and fit body.

Where does fitness begin? One place many people make a huge mistake is thinking all they have to do is cut back on the number of calories they consume. They do not understand it is not necessarily they number of calories they consume but the type of calories that are contained in those foods. For instance, those who consume many processed and bleached foods such as white rice, white pasta, white bread and the like are likely to gain weight no matter how little food they eat. Carbohydrates of any kind turn to sugar when they enter the body, but whole grain products-wheat bread, whole wheat pasta, brown rice, etc.-take longer to turn into sugar. That means the body has more time to burn the calories consumption of grain products causes.

Exercise is important, but the combination of aerobic exercise-walking, running, bicycling, swimming, etc.-in combination with resistance exercise is the key to boosting the metabolism. While resistance exercise does not boost the metabolism as aerobic exercise does, it creates lean muscle mass which burns calories at a faster rate than muscle mass that contains more fat. Therefore the combination of aerobic and resistance exercises are essential for optimal metabolism.

Water consumption is also an essential part of not just optimal metabolism but overall good fitness. What it amounts to is the real test of quality for your metabolism involves drinking plenty of water, reducing the amount of refined products you eat and replacing them with whole grains, exercising regularly and drinking plenty of water. Your efforts will not only provide you with a fitter body but a healthier one as well.
