CBiBank Review — Is CBiBank a Scam?

Forensics Source Group is not affiliated to this broker. We do not hold this account, we cannot close a balance, and we do not phone you as this firm.

Yes. CBiBank is the Trustpilot listing at cbibank.com. CBI Bank & Trust in Iowa is named only in this block. The notices are written once, in the block below. If you paid cbibank.com, the date and how you paid are the part this review cannot see.

The record

What the notices say

  • Trustpilot, 25 October 2026: cbibank.com is rated Poor at 2.7 / 5 from 14 reviews. Unclaimed. Filed under bank, alternative finance, and cryptocurrency service. The company has not invited customers, so reviews may not be representative.
  • Trustpilot review, 10 October 2026: Almost $1000+200 wasted. I paid nearly USD 1,000 in account opening and maintenance fees, then $200 for first due diligence, then the bank closed the account after one wire. Those figures are the reviewer's.
  • Trustpilot review, 23 September 2026: I had about 300 USD left. After 4 failed transfers I am left with 120 USD, below the minimum to get the money out. Those figures are the reviewer's.
  • Trustpilot review, 6 January 2026: I paid a setup fee of over $1000. They keep asking for verifications they did not mention. They also won't give me my money back. That figure is the reviewer's.
  • Trustpilot review, 14 July 2025: someone from China asked for corporate papers and money by email after a cbibank.com application. That is the reviewer's allegation.
  • A 27 June 2025 five-star note names CBI in Muscatine, Iowa. That note sits on the same listing. This page is cbibank.com. It is not a finding that CBI Bank & Trust, the Iowa bank, is a fake.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you close my CBiBank account, or have the person who phoned me call again?

Forensics Source Group is not affiliated to this broker. We do not hold an account at cbibank.com. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as CBiBank.

CBiBank says I must pay a tax or fee before withdrawing — should I?

No. A real broker deducts a fee from the balance. A new payment to release your own money is a second charge. Keep the message that asked for it.

What do you do with what I send?

We place it next to the record above. Where the same payment shows up from other people, those files can sit together as a class action. The first look is free.
