What happened
BrokersView reported on 9 November 2026 that Hong Kong's Securities and Futures Commission added a website and app named 立橋國際 at liqiao.rszcrq.com to its Alert List. According to the report, the SFC says the website and app have no connection to licensed firm Well Link Securities Limited. Well Link Securities Limited is not involved. The same day the SFC also listed stellarisaml.com and a mobile app named PSULTRA.
How the scam works
Clone sites and apps that borrow a licensed broker's Chinese or English name are designed so that investors who check the firm name find a real licence and then download the wrong app or visit the wrong website. Once money is deposited into an account controlled by the clone operators, withdrawals are typically blocked or delayed with fee demands.
The SFC Alert List exists to warn the public about websites and apps that are not connected to the licensed firms whose names they resemble. Investors should confirm the exact website or app through the firm's official contact details on the SFC Public Register before depositing money, and should be wary of any download link sent by chat or social media.
Anyone who already deposited money through liqiao.rszcrq.com or an app named 立橋國際 that is not from Well Link should contact their bank, stop further deposits, and report the matter to the SFC and the police.
An app name in Chinese that matches or resembles a licensed broker is not proof of legitimacy. Confirm the download source through the SFC register and the firm's published website before installing anything or sending money.
