Is Quarix AI regulated or licensed to offer financial services?
No entry for Quarix AI appears on the FCA Financial Services Register (register.fca.org.uk). Operating without regulatory registration is a red flag consistent with scam patterns. Anyone considering a platform should verify its license with the relevant authority before depositing any funds.
What should I do if I deposited money into Quarix AI?
Contact your bank or card provider promptly, as chargeback windows are time-limited. Document all transaction records, screenshots, and communications. Report the platform to the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC). Avoid paying any third party that promises guaranteed fund recovery, as those services frequently target prior victims.
My family member sent money to Quarix AI — how do I help them?
Avoid blame; people targeted by these operations are deceived by professional-grade advertising. Gather transaction evidence together and file a report with Hong Kong Police and the SFC. Contact the bank immediately. Crypto Killer's investigation page and ScamAdviser's review of quarix-ai.click (scamadviser.com) can provide shareable evidence to support the case.
Which public figures did Quarix AI impersonate in its ads?
Captured Quarix AI creatives targeting Hong Kong show 12 public figures used without verified consent, including broadcaster Nabela Qoser, former HKMA chief executive Eddie Yue Wai-man, politician 毛孟靜, actor 馮淬帆, and others. Impersonating recognisable figures to build false credibility is a tactic commonly observed in suspected crypto scam campaigns.
Why did Quarix AI ads appear in Hong Kong specifically?
All 138 tracked creatives targeted Hong Kong. The ads impersonated locally recognised figures to appear credible to a Hong Kong audience. Quarix AI has been inactive since August 13, 2026, but its concentrated geographic focus on a single market is a pattern Crypto Killer associates with regionally tailored fraud operations.
How long was Quarix AI active, and is it still running?
Quarix AI was first detected on March 19, 2026 and last observed active on August 13, 2026, a span of 147 days. Current weekly velocity is 0 and the trend is dead, indicating the campaign has stopped. Inactive status does not mean funds already deposited are safe — bank contact remains the immediate priority.

🔬Our Investigation Methodology

Crypto Killer scanned multiple ad networks between March 19, 2026 and August 13, 2026 and captured 138 creatives tied to Quarix AI. We logged 12 impersonated public figures across 1 targeted market and tracked a 7-day velocity of 0. Every investigated brand is cross-checked against the UK FCA Financial Services Register and the FCA Warning List through the FCA's official register API, and against SEC EDGAR full-text search. Quarix AI returned no exact entry on the FCA Financial Services Register, which makes it unregistered with the FCA. We query these public databases directly; we claim no endorsement, affiliation, or privileged access. Findings are pattern-matched against 12,695 documented scam brands to surface shared infrastructure, creative templates, and celebrity-abuse signatures. The current threat score is 8/100, and the campaign status reads inactive with a dead velocity trend. Monitoring continues in case the operation resurfaces under new domains.

Reviewed by: Crypto Killer Research Team

Crypto Killer investigates crypto-fraud advertising at scale and maintains evidence files on documented scam brands. We cross-check each brand against public regulator databases: the UK FCA Financial Services Register, the FCA Warning List, and SEC EDGAR full-text search. Those queries hit official public endpoints, which lets us state whether a firm is registered or flagged without implying any endorsement or affiliation. Our analysts capture live ad creatives, map celebrity-impersonation patterns, and trace the domains and funnels that connect campaigns. For Quarix AI, that meant reviewing captured Hong Kong creatives, the promoted domain, and the regulator record before assigning a score.

⚠️

Were You Targeted by Quarix AI?

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 Quarix AI and similar frauds.

When this review may not apply: This review covers the Quarix AI promoted through Hong Kong ad creatives using the celebrity faces documented below. Several unrelated products share generic "AI" naming. If you reached a licensed brokerage that happens to use "Quarix" branding and holds a verifiable SFC or FCA authorization number you confirmed on the regulator's own register, this file is not about that firm. If your platform never ran ads impersonating Hong Kong public figures and never routed you through quarix-ai.click, check the domain against our evidence before assuming a match. A clone can copy a name in an afternoon.

Important Disclaimer

This assessment reflects evidence gathered between March 19, 2026 and August 13, 2026 and is dated 2026-08-31. Quarix AI has not produced enough evidence for Crypto Killer to classify it as a Limited Evidence; the current threat score is 8/100 and the file carries a Limited Evidence label. The observations here describe advertising creatives, a promoted domain, and public regulator records at the time of review. Regulatory status, ownership, and domains can change. Nothing here is financial, legal, or investment advice. Verify any regulator claim directly on the official register before acting. Monitoring continues.
