Is EquiLoomPRO regulated?
EquiLoomPRO claims regulation by the FCA, U.S. CFTC, and SEC. BrokersView searched all 3 databases in 2026 and found zero matching entries. The platform does not appear on the FCA's Financial Services Register. Until verifiable licensing is produced, treat all regulatory claims as unconfirmed. Check register.fca.org.uk directly.
Can I get my money back from EquiLoomPRO?
Recovery depends on payment method and timing. Credit card chargebacks filed within 60 days have the highest success rate. File at IC3.gov and contact your bank immediately with transaction evidence. Avoid recovery firms requesting upfront fees — these are secondary scams targeting existing victims. Document all communications with the platform.
How do I help a family member who invested in EquiLoomPRO?
Share this review and the BrokersView investigation showing EquiLoomPRO's regulatory claims are unverified. Avoid blame — victims are targeted by sophisticated geo-localized deepfake ads featuring trusted public figures. Help them file at IC3.gov and contact their bank. Accompany them through the chargeback process and warn about recovery scams.
Which celebrities are impersonated in EquiLoomPRO ads?
CryptoKiller identified 99 impersonated public figures including Manny Pacquiao, Gustavo Petro, Anwar Ibrahim, Carlos Slim Helú, Roger Federer, and Conor McGregor. None endorsed EquiLoomPRO. Ads feature geo-targeted video deepfakes matched to each country's trusted figures across 20 markets.

🔬Our Investigation Methodology

CryptoKiller's automated ad-surveillance system scanned Meta, Google, TikTok, and X ad libraries between September 29, 2025 and August 13, 2026, capturing 398 creatives linked to EquiLoomPRO. Each creative was catalogued by geography, celebrity presence, media type, and redirect domain. Celebrity identifications were cross-referenced against public figure databases and deduplicated to 99 unique individuals. Regulatory claims were verified against the FCA Financial Services Register, SEC EDGAR, and CFTC registration databases. Independent third-party assessments from BrokersView, Bitnation, and Scamadviser were cross-referenced. The 34/100 threat score reflects a weighted aggregate of false regulatory claims, celebrity impersonation volume, domain infrastructure opacity, and third-party trust signals. Pattern matching drew on Crypto Killer's database of 500+ investigated campaigns.

⚠️

Were You Targeted by EquiLoomPRO?

Your report helps warn others and builds the evidence trail against this operation. If you've lost money, act quickly — chargebacks are time-sensitive.

⚠️ Beware of "recovery agents" who contact you promising to retrieve your money for an upfront fee. These are often secondary scams targeting victims of EquiLoomPRO and similar frauds.

When this review may not apply: This review may not apply if you accessed EquiLoomPRO through a verified, regulated brokerage that independently underwrites trades and provides segregated client accounts under a named jurisdiction. If your account appears on a regulated entity's Financial Services Register entry, this analysis does not describe your situation. Crypto Killer has not identified such a regulated entity behind EquiLoomPRO — but absence of evidence is not evidence of absence at the watchlist tier. We publish corrections within 48 hours of receiving verifiable regulatory documentation. No other scam-review platform commits to that timeline.

Important Disclaimer

This review reflects intelligence gathered between September 2025 and May 2026. EquiLoomPRO scores 34/100 — watchlist tier — meaning evidence supports concern but does not meet the threshold for a definitive scam designation. Crypto Killer is not a financial advisor, law firm, or regulator. This content is for informational purposes under YMYL editorial standards. Verify all claims independently. If you have lost money, consult a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction.
