Canadian securities regulators have started a task force to raise awareness and protect Canadians from the latest investment scam, so-called binary options that can cost investors everything they have.

"Binary options fraud is a leading type of investment fraud facing Canadians today," said Jason Roy, chair of the newly formed task force set up by Canadian Securities Administrators. "We want Canadians to know that there are no registered individuals or firms permitted to trade these products in Canada."

Traditional stock options allow investors to buy a stock or other investment for a certain price, on or before a certain date. As such, gains and losses are limited to the gap between the option price and the market price.

But binary options are a much more short-term bet on the direction of an asset. Unlike regular options, they are all-in: bet right and you make all the money from the person on the other end of the trade. If you're wrong, you lose it all.

"It's a naked bet — with lots of downside," says Neil Gross, the former chair of investor advocacy group FAIR Canada. "These schemes are pretty much gambling, not investing."

They're also growing. Roy says securities regulators across the country received 800 complaints about such scams last year, but the true number of victims is likely far more.

Binary options "traders" advertise on websites geared towards investors, as well as on social media, in order to promote their fake investing mobile apps. Regulators are now cracking down on those ads.

But the regulators don't have the power to reach into foreign countries where many of the scammers are based, because they're located in "jurisdictions that in many cases aren't co-operative," Roy says.

The overwhelming majority of binary options sites are rigged to lure in victims with small early returns, the CSA says. A "free" $100 in credits will likely be enough to get a victim hooked. But in many instances, no actual trading occurs with any money the scammers receive, and the entire interaction takes place for the purpose of stealing money.

Once the victim has seen some early "wins" on options trades they've supposedly made, the fraudsters will ask for credit card information — and that's when the losses and withdrawals start.

That's exactly what happened to Edmonton business owner Fred Turbide, his son Tomas Ferreira told CBC's On The Money in an interview Thursday.
