Fake Quantum Financial System platform that asks for a $5000 deposit to complete KYC

The fake Quantum Financial System site at qfsweb3assetbackup[.]vercel[.]app also works as a fake investment platform. According to the site's code, signed-in users see a dashboard with a "Total Balance", a "Not Verified" badge and buttons to deposit, withdraw, buy and swap crypto. On October 21, 2026 the live site showed the KYC form, which asks for your full name, government ID number, bank name and an ID document. The $5000 KYC deposit requirement and the deposit wallet addresses were seen only in the site's code. The live deposit page showed "No wallet address configured for this coin" and no wallet address. The site also sells investment plans with "Daily Interest", takes payment by gift card, including Razer Gold, and has a form to "secure" a 401(k) or IRA. On October 21, 2026 the live site showed the Pay with Gift Card page, listing Apple, Google Play, Amazon, iTunes, Razer Gold Card and Steam Card. Every withdrawal attempt shows an error in the site's code. The site was reported three times on October 16, 2026. The dashboard, investment plans, 401(k) form, withdrawal error, and the email sending of what you submit were not captured on screen. Those details come from the site's code.

What’s different in this version

These traits set this message apart from the usual pattern.

  1. The KYC step comes first: a form for full legal name, "State ID Number", bank name, document type (national ID card, passport or driver's licence) and an optional ID upload, which the site's code sends to the EmailJS email-sending service. The KYC form asks for a full legal name, a state ID number, a bank name, a document type (national ID card, passport or driver's license) and an optional ID document upload.

  2. After the KYC form, the site's code asks for a deposit of exactly $5000. The deposit page in the code lists wallet addresses for BTC, XRP, XLM, ETH, USDT, SOL and LTC. ETH and USDT share one address, so there are 6 distinct addresses. On October 21, 2026 the live deposit page showed "No wallet address configured for this coin" and no wallet address. A "Send Confirmation Email" button opens an email to qfsweb3assetbackup[.]org@gmail[.]com.

  3. The withdrawal form asks for a coin, a wallet address and an amount, and on every submission shows "Error: withdrawal on this account seems to be inactive. Contact the support team for help."

  4. Investment plans named Starter, Mini, Professional and Promo list minimum deposits from $50 to $3000 and "Daily Interest" figures from 5 to 9.99. After paying, you enter a transaction hash and press "I Have Paid".

  5. The "Pay with Gift Card" page lists Apple, iTunes, Amazon, Google Play, Razer Gold Card and Steam Card. It asks for the card number and a photo of the card, uploaded through the Uploadcare service.

  6. A "SECURE 401K OR IRA" button leads to a form asking for account type, name, work status and amount range, which is also sent to the operators by email.

  7. The balances on the dashboard are read from the operators' own database. Nothing in the code connects them to a real exchange or bank.

How this scam works

  1. 1

    Step 1: You sign up on a site that promises high or daily returns, often tied to a big financial story.

  2. 2

    Step 2: The dashboard shows a balance and offers investment plans with a minimum deposit.

  3. 3

    Step 3: You are told to send crypto to the site's wallet addresses, or to pay with gift cards, and then confirm the payment.

  4. 4

    Step 4: Before you can use the account, the site asks for identity verification (KYC) and a large deposit or fee.

  5. 5

    Step 5: When you try to withdraw, the site shows an error or asks for another payment. Nothing is paid out.

✓ Do this

  • Check that an investment firm is registered with your country's financial regulator before you send money.
  • Try a small withdrawal before you deposit more, and stop if it is blocked.
  • If you already paid, contact your bank, card issuer or the exchange you sent crypto from, and report the wallet addresses.

✗ Avoid this

  • Do not pay a deposit or fee to unlock withdrawals or complete KYC.
  • Do not pay an investment platform with gift cards.
  • Do not trust a dashboard balance as proof that your money is real or safe.
