Who these two stupid brokers are?
Why they are so naive as to fund an account if they haven't cashied the check yet?

At least they only got scammed for $1M.
This could well have happened with $500M+ and get them out of business.

Whenever I funded an account with a prop firm, even when they knew who I was and I was referred from a reputable source whom they knew, they always waited for my $5k check to cash before opening me up... on one occasion I got $10k in BP with a $100 max loss to test the platform until my check cleared.

I'm curious who these broker dealers were and how Mohammad sniffed out such gross negligence.
