FiDelity

Our investigation into FiDelity found an operation with the classic markings of an investment scam. If you are weighing a deposit — or trying to get one back — read this first.

Who is FiDelity?

FiDelity markets itself as an online trading and investment service. Its public site is presented at http://www.fidelity-tw.cc/. As with most operations of this kind, the polished front end conceals a lack of the basic protections a real, regulated broker is required to provide.

Is FiDelity regulated?

FiDelity provides no verifiable regulatory licence. An unregulated broker answers to no one: it can freeze withdrawals, invent fees, and disappear with deposits, all without consequence. This alone is reason enough to stay away.

Red flags we identified

• Aggressive “account managers” coaching clients to deposit
• Account dashboards that show “gains” with no real market exposure
• Unrealistic profit claims and pressure to deposit more
• No verifiable licence from a recognised financial regulator
• Withdrawals reportedly blocked behind “taxes,” “fees” or account “upgrades”

Our analysis

FiDelity claims to be regulated under the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA) but we did not find any match results to this broker in CIMA. The regulatory information this broker claim is a false statement for unsuspected investors. The truth is, FiDelity is not regulated by any regulators. Letting this broker hold or control investors' money is unsafe, and the money can not be protected by any laws. Therefore, it is a scam.

Can you recover money lost to FiDelity?

If you have deposited with FiDelity, do not pay any further “fees” to withdraw — that is part of the trap. Funds sent to operations like this can sometimes be traced on-chain and pursued through the exchanges and processors that received them. Whether recovery is realistic depends on how you paid and how quickly you act.
