Fake pnl of live trading: Finfluencers scam

The idea behind introducing Verified P&L was to ensure that if someone is sharing a screenshot of the P&L, the audience can demand to see a verified P&L link.

The affiliate link business itself is a tricky spot for us. We don’t track any customer’s P&L and we don’t want to get into the job of tracking P&L for everyone who is sharing affiliate links. We have tens of thousands of customers along with partners who share these across the internet.

But that said, SEBI has been talking about a regulation that might start restricting the type of activities of partners or customers who earn any referral income from a brokerage firm. Here is the consultation paper that was just published.

I think some of these issues that you are pointing out will be stopped soon.
