我英文不好，先勉强解读，113位外汇客户索赔，LCG账户管理失误，返佣多了，账户余额比真实大，使得客户放大交易而引起损失！原文摘录：
The investors, who held accounts on LCG's platform, claim the financial services and spread betting company repeatedly over-rebated commission to clients.
It went unnoticed for several months because LCG failed to regularly reconcile its monies.
The result was that clients' accounts collectively were overstated by about £1m higher than the true balances.
"This effectively geared the trading so all the accounts were over trading so any losses were exaggerated," says Sampson.
Had the clients known at the outset that LCG was not going to perform frequent account checks to ensure each held the correct amounts, none of them would have invested, Sampson claims.

这些英国客户都是玩spread betting，而不是CurrenEX ，一是有返佣，二是英国居民spread betting盈利能免税，forex则不行

最近起诉外汇经纪商似乎成为了一种“潮流”，不仅零售经纪商被集体诉讼，机构(如上)和银行都不能免责 (Arkansas退休基金.vs.道富银行State Street Bank ，前者认为道富使用欺骗和不公的手段，未向给客户提供最优的外汇报价，导致客户损失近500 million)

看来还是等国内开放外汇保证金交易才是最安全的，钱在国外飘由他们说了算，真有点怕。
