How we checked this case: This report separates the linked notices from our interpretation. Match the named domains and jurisdictions; similar names alone do not prove common ownership.
Quantum AI is sold as a trading robot. You put money in. The software trades crypto for you, day and night. The money grows.
The adverts are built around a famous face. A video of someone you know, saying it works.
A familiar face does not prove that the person endorsed the offer. Check the original source and the exact website before trusting it.
The FCA has warned about Quantum AI and the domains named below. Ireland's central bank has also published a warning. These are findings in specific places, not a search of every register worldwide.
If your money is in Quantum AI, do these three things today
1. Contact your bank or payment provider now. Tell them what happened. Ask if they can stop, recall or dispute the payment. The options and deadlines vary by country and payment method.
2. Keep your records. Save the exact website address, messages, receipts and dates. Keep copies on your own device. Do not send passwords or full card details to anyone offering help.
3. Check new payment demands before you act. Do not pay a stranger who promises to unlock or recover your balance.

They are asking me to pay a fee before I can withdraw
Are you asked to pay more to get your money out? Pause. Do not send more just because you are told to. Check the demand with a source you can trust.
Real firms can charge fees set out in their terms. A new demand to unlock money is a different concern. A fee alone does not prove who runs a site.
This is a warning sign to watch for. We do not know if each customer of this firm had such a demand.
Is Quantum AI registered or licensed?
The UK FCA says this firm lacks its permission. Match the full web address to the warning. A shared name does not prove it is the same firm.
Hong Kong's Securities and Futures Commission went first, in May 2024. It also asked the police to block the websites and social accounts pushing it.
The Central Bank of Ireland published its own warning on 2 December 2024.
The UK's FCA added Quantum AI to its list of unlicensed firms on 14 May 2025. It updated that entry on 3 March 2026, naming quantumai.co and quantumai.co.com.
Australia's Scamwatch also warns about investment scams. That does not identify every site using this name.
We checked all of this again on 28 September 2026. It is still there.
What "not licensed" means for your money
A licence does not mean you will get your money back. The rules depend on where you live and what you bought. They also depend on the firm and your claim. Some schemes cover a firm that fails. They may not cover a drop in price.
Check the exact firm named on your account. Ask which rules cover your money. Our guide explains what regulation does and does not cover.
The FCA warning says UK Financial Ombudsman Service and FSCS protection are not available when dealing with the named firm. Separate payment protections may still be relevant; ask your bank about your own payment.
Did Elon Musk or Martin Lewis back Quantum AI?
Do not treat an advert as proof of an endorsement. Reports linked below describe misuse of famous faces in trading promotions. That does not establish who made every advert or who owns every site with this name.
Check the original statement on the person's own channels. Then check the firm. Our deepfake guide explains why a convincing video may still mislead you.
How do I check whether a video of a famous person is real?
Two checks, and the second one is the better of them.
Search a few exact words from the video. A real interview is already online, in its real setting, usually in several places. A spliced one usually is not.
Then ignore the face altogether. Judge the advert by what it asks you to do. A deposit form is not proof of fraud by itself. Check the legal firm, its permissions and the exact web address. A famous face cannot replace those checks.
The second check is better because it still works when the fake is a good one. And they are getting better.
Why does the website keep changing its address?
Different sites can use the same name. The evidence cited here does not establish that every Quantum AI domain belongs to one operator.
Match your full address with a regulator notice. Save the address you used, even if it later stops working. A new address or a shared brand is not enough to prove a connection.
Is quantumai.co the same as Quantum AI Miners or Quantum Open AI?
We have not established common ownership. Similar names and separate warning entries do not prove that one group runs them.
The FCA Quantum AI notice names quantumai.co and www.quantumai.co.com. Compare the full address, not just the brand. Keep any other address as a separate lead until evidence connects it.
What we could not find out
We will not fill a gap with a guess, so here is what is missing.
Who runs it. No regulator has named a person or a company behind the campaign. Neither can we.
How much has been taken in total. The sources linked here do not establish a total loss for all sites using this name.
Whether anyone has had money back. We have found no record either way. That is not the same as saying nobody has. It means we have nothing to report.
If your own case fills in any of this, tell us. Corrections and new evidence are how this page improves.
