XTBFX — case file

AndersFX — Cointiverse forensic case file

The case coordinates for XTBFX were fixed the moment an official warning list picked the operation up. Our review of the available trail supports that placement.

The warning on the record

The domain of XTBFX was registered in late May 2024, making it a relatively new website. The company's role is unclear, as it doesn't provide a clear image of itself in the financial industry—a red flag. While XTBFX claims to hold an MSB registration with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FINCEN), it doesn't disclose any specific registration details. We searched for the company name on the FINCEN register and found no corresponding records. XTBFX is almost anonymous, providing only a phone hotline on the website, suggesting it might be operating out of the US. Given its claim of providing financial services for trading various derivatives assets, including stocks, FX, and cryptos, we searched the registers of relevant US financial regulators but found no records. In essence, XTBFX is not regulated by any governing body. Entrusting it with investors' funds is highly risky, as there are no legal protections in place to safeguard the funds. XTBFX appears to be a scam.

Red flags on the map

  • Aggressive outreach through social platforms and messaging apps
  • Dashboard balances that cannot be verified on-chain
  • Pressure to deposit more in order to unlock earlier deposits
  • Appears on an official regulator or fraud-warning list
