Three regulators, no numbers
The footer lists the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, Saint Lucia’s financial services authority and the Seychelles FSA under “compliance and regulation”. It gives no licence number for any of them. An ASIC-licensed firm would not offer 1:1000 leverage to retail clients.

Earn money without trading
The “earn” plan pays 2.5% to 3.5% a year on deposits from $500, “no trading needed”. Taking deposits and paying interest is banking, which needs a banking licence.
Connect your wallet
A “WEB wallet” feature asks users to connect a personal crypto wallet. Wallet-connection prompts are a common way to drain crypto from victims.
Static ‘real-time’ prices
The ticker shows EUR/USD 1.0842 and BTC 68,420 beside a live clock. The prices do not move. The email address is also misspelt: “suport@hiufx.com”.
⚠ Verified evidence
- Listed on the BrokersView (FastBull) scam broker list.
- Claims ASIC, Saint Lucia and Seychelles regulation with no licence numbers.
- Deposit-and-earn plan paying up to 3.5%.
- “Connect wallet” feature.
- Domain registered 2 February 2026.
How to check
Search the firm’s exact name and web address on the register of the regulator in your own country, and on IOSCO’s I-SCAN list. A real broker shows a licence number you can look up in under a minute — and the regulator’s own register links back to the broker’s real website.
What to do if you paid HiUFX
- Stop sending money — no “tax”, “release fee” or “upgrade” will unlock a withdrawal.
- Keep every record: receipts, wallet addresses, emails and chat screenshots.
- Call your bank or card issuer today and ask about a chargeback or recall.
- Report it to the regulator that issued the warning and to your local police.
- Ignore anyone who offers to recover the money for an upfront fee.
The verdict: HiUFX borrows regulators’ names and asks for wallet access. Do not deposit or connect a wallet.
