Crownex Capital Group Scam Warning: Fake FCRA Licence Claim

Crownex Capital Group says it offers CFD trading on forex, shares, crypto, metals and commodities. To gain trust, it claims to be supervised by a body called the "Financial Conduct & Regulatory Agency (FCRA)", a name that recalls the British authority FCA. The real FCA, however, placed the firm among those providing financial services without authorisation on 10 November 2026.
🎭 What Does the "FCRA" Licence Hide?
The name "Financial Conduct & Regulatory Agency" appears to have been chosen to be confused with the real British regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority. The site shows no licence number, address or telephone number; the page is kept closed to search engines, and only the registration, login and identity verification (KYC) screens work.
🔍 Phone Numbers, Domain Name and Official Warning
- Telephone: +44 7520 676720 and +44 7520 676721

💸 What Happens at the Withdrawal Stage?
In schemes of this kind, the money transferred to the account is shown on the dashboard as profitable positions. When a withdrawal is requested, a "tax", a "commission" or an "account verification" fee is demanded; every payment is followed by a new obstacle.
🔗 Other Platforms Using the Same Method
Other platforms that give the appearance of a brokerage with an invented or imitated licence:
- Meta Trust Capital: a fake FCA registration
- Zeniumec Global: a licence claimTR
- Velmato Edge: a forex and CFD platform
- Smart World Invest: a fake licence
🧭 The Legal Process
SPK Board Decision No. 8/297 of 24.02.2017 expressly prohibits unauthorised intermediation in leveraged transactions; authorised institutions appear in the SPK list. In these cases, the invalidity of the account opening agreementTR and the restitution claimTR come to the fore.
