FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you close my HQI Exchange (HQIEX) 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 hqiex.com. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as HQI Exchange.

HQI Exchange (HQIEX) 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.
