I finally caught a broker faking trade confirmations last night

Was going through my forex account statements around 11 PM and noticed the timestamps on 3 of my supposed trades didn't match the market data I pulled from Bloomberg. Called them out on it this morning and they admitted the fill prices were adjusted, anyone else ever catch their broker cooking the books like that?

Man, they really saw you coming with the 3AM markup special. Guess Bloomberg is the ultimate snitch in this game.

Guess Bloomberg is the ultimate snitch in this game" - yeah, keep a second data source handy always. I'd start recording your trades live with timestamps going forward.
