Hello,
I joined to the group of users which were scammed by pretty Hong Kong girl. The loss is huge and it's a shame to me so I just simply describe my history.
I met the girl on Tinder, then we moved to Whatsapp. Her name was Amy, but after the conversation she told me that her real name is Han Xue (韩雪) but I can called her Xiao Xue (小雪). We started smoothly in September, talked a lot about everything, she told me that she's a financial analyst, play on Forex since 6 years and also have beauty salon (now closed because of covid). We flirted a little and talk about dates after covid, and in the meantime she started to teach me how to trade on demo account in Sro Capital
srofx.com
After two weeks I opened real account, transfer a money (via BTC, so charge-back from Bank is impossible) by customer service (Anna from SRO, later Abby from QCL) which she gave me and constantly learn and follow Amy moves. What is interesting that we played almost everyday and opened one position per day (long or short) and we always win. 100% win. I believed her and didn't check the broker. My bad. In the end of the year my account was moved from SRO Capital to QCL
qclfx.co and we still played and won all the time. She showed me photos from MT4 that she deposit 2x200k$ in this year. In general we traded mainly on gold and sometimes bitcoin and also sometimes she showed me her income (between 4.5k$ - 50k$).
One week ago I tried to withdraw money from QCL to my virtual wallet. I did it with Customer Service (Abby from QCL) and the first attempt was positive (10$ in USDT) and money was transferred to my wallet. So I decided to perform second attempt with much bigger amount. After this my account is frozen, Abby from Customer Serice trying to explain that there is something wrong with my virtual wallet and if I want to unfreeze I need to transfer 30% of my balance because regulator found a fraud or something similar. Now I know that is a scam and I won't pay. I accepted my huge loss. Life goes on.
Amy (or Xiao Xue) written to me until yesterday, trying to be my friend, even when I said to her that it's a scam and she is a scammer and cheated me, but she doesn't want to admit to cheating. She played to the end. I think she still think that she will convince me and I will pay those 30%.
Last thing - based on comments here I wrote to her and ask about video call on Whatsapp to talk what's happened etc (to check is she real, and not a fat guy) and she called me on video camera after 3-4minutes, but I couldn't answer the call because of important meeting at work. Do you think that she feels so unpunished that no one will catch her? I think we will talk on video in few days so it looks like at least she is real.
We had a call 2 days ago and I saw her face in one second, but I am almost sure that it is a different person than on photos. Here you can have a look which photos she used, if you have the same, you can be sure that this is scam.
Conclusions:
- Never trust Chinese girls
- Always check a broker - there are a lot of scams on the market and it's your money.
- Prepare a plan how to recover this loss in 2021
- Wallet from which QCL transferred USDT to me, 0xf41f8d13ea99b8e8a46ebd3becd06ff37ea9824d (here be careful, it looks like people can withdraw some small amounts between 0-3000$ broker wants to be more credible). You can check transactions from their wallet here

Questions to you guys:
- How was it possible that we always earn money? Did she or scam broker manipulated price and she's got some signals from them when to buy/sell?
- Who is now owner of my money? I don't know is she cheated me alone or she works for scam company.
- Is there a chance to recover money? If yes, can you tell me how to do this? Any advice are welcome.
- If someone know how to track their sites etc. I will appreciate for info, I would like to continue with them.
- Do you know a good layers who can look and take this case and help?
- What penalty awaits her if she will be caught by the police?
- Is it something what I can do in this case? As I know I can raise this to Hong Kong Police.
- Maybe it's a good idea to get to this environment (company) and destroy them from the inside? Did someone tried?
- The girl made a mistake in my opinion: she went on holidays for the weekend and send me her photos from village. Now I identified the hotel/village in China, and identified potential flight number so if it's true and she's been there, it should be easy to identify who is she based on the list of hotel guests during this weekend or passenger list from aircraft. I plan to write to this hotel but also inform HK Police, they should easy identify this girl. The problem is now it looks like it's a different girl.
Below you will find her and customer service photos.
PS.1 During the account migration from SRO Capital to QIVIUT, they probably by mistake open for me another account under different broker:
populusfx.com which is in my opinion another scam. BE CAREFUL.
PS.2 As I know on the beginning it was a company named Reset investment management LLC, then UGL exchange, then SRO Capital, now it's QIVIUT and Populus, so I think there is the same group behind this scam.
PS.3 When I talked about Populus to Amy, she was surprised and told me that she will ask her teacher about some other safe broker so I expect another address for scam broker in the list.
Below you will find phone numbers and photos of those girls. Maybe someone recognize them and bring more news to us.
