Murrius Group (murriusgroup.com) Scam: Unlicensed Trading Platform Warning

Murrius Group (murriusgroup.com) Scam: Unlicensed Trading Platform Warning

Murrius Group presents murriusgroup.com as an institutional-grade trading operation offering forex, cryptocurrency, commodities, metals, indices and equities. However, an AssetVault Recovery investigation found that the website is operating behind a recently registered domain and has now been placed on Australia’s Investor Alert List as an unlicensed entity.

On 7 September 2026, MoneySmart, operated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), published a warning concerning Murrius Group and murriusgroup.com.

The regulatory record classifies Murrius Group as Unlicensed. The warning has also been circulated internationally through the I-SCAN network maintained by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO).

AssetVault examined the operation beyond the regulatory warning. What we found raises serious questions about the financial business being presented through murriusgroup.com and, particularly, how the website says certain payments must be handled.

A New Domain Presenting an Institutional Trading Business

Murrius Group describes itself as providing an “institutional-grade” trading environment. Its website promotes access to forex, cryptocurrencies, commodities, metals, indices and equities and makes references to Tier-1 liquidity and segregated capital custody.

However, public domain records show that murriusgroup.com was registered on 13 March 2026, with the registrant’s identity concealed through a privacy service.

A recently registered domain is not evidence of fraud on its own. But it becomes important when assessing the history and scale projected by a financial platform asking customers to deposit money or cryptocurrency.

AssetVault encountered a similar discrepancy while investigating ApexTradex Markets (apextradexmarkets.com), where the independently verifiable age of the domain conflicted sharply with the image of an established international trading operation.

Murrius Group Claims a London Headquarters

The legal information published through murriusgroup.com identifies 1 Blackfriars Road, London, SE1 9PB, United Kingdom as its headquarters. The website also displays telephone contacts associated with the United Kingdom and Singapore.

For prospective investors, a London address combined with institutional trading terminology can create an impression of an established financial firm.

But a physical address does not establish regulatory authorization.

The Australian warning is therefore particularly important. MoneySmart, operated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), identifies the exact website and classifies Murrius Group as Unlicensed.

Similar questions surrounding impressive financial locations arose during AssetVault’s investigation of Firm Apex Trades (firmapextrades.com), where a purported London presence could not substitute for independently verifiable regulatory status.

Murrius Group’s Withdrawal Terms Deserve Particular Attention

One of the most important findings in AssetVault’s investigation came from Murrius Group’s own withdrawal policy.

The website states that withdrawals can be delayed or rejected in a number of circumstances, including incomplete verification, compliance reviews, suspected irregularities and insufficient available balances.

Those provisions are not necessarily unusual by themselves. The more concerning language appears when Murrius Group discusses fees.

Its withdrawal documentation states that certain service fees or management costs cannot be deducted from trading capital and instead must be settled separately through the platform’s billing interface.

That provision deserves extreme caution.

If you have requested a withdrawal from Murrius Group and have subsequently been told to send additional money before your existing funds can be released, do not automatically make the payment.

Requests for separate taxes, management fees, verification charges, insurance or withdrawal-release payments are commonly reported in investment fraud cases. The existence of a balance displayed on a trading dashboard does not independently prove that the funds shown are actually being held for the customer.

AssetVault highlighted the same distinction while investigating Intrade24 (intrade24.com): investors should distinguish between figures displayed by a platform and independently verifiable evidence showing where their money actually went.

Crypto Withdrawals Create a Traceable Transaction Trail

Murrius Group’s withdrawal documentation lists several cryptocurrency options, including USDT, USDC, Bitcoin and Ethereum, alongside bank transfers and card refunds.

For anyone who deposited cryptocurrency with Murrius Group, the underlying blockchain evidence may be significantly more useful than the balance displayed inside the trading account.

Preserve the receiving wallet address, transaction hash, blockchain network, amount transferred and details of the exchange or wallet from which the payment originated.

A transaction hash can establish where cryptocurrency was actually sent and may allow subsequent transfers between wallets to be examined.

This was also an important investigative issue in AssetVault’s review of Vinvory Capital (vinvory-capital.com), another investment operation involving cryptocurrency that later became the subject of regulatory warnings.

Murrius Group’s Own Legal Pages Raise Questions

AssetVault also found inconsistencies within the website’s legal documentation.

A page presented as Murrius Group’s Privacy Policy opens with a “Mandatory Risk Disclosure” and concentrates heavily on leveraged trading, potential losses and execution risks rather than providing the type of privacy information normally expected from a financial website collecting customers’ personal data.

On its own, poor or incorrectly labelled website documentation does not prove fraud.

But financial firms routinely request highly sensitive identity information for KYC verification. Investors may provide passports, identity cards, proof of address, banking information and other personal documents. The quality and transparency of a platform’s privacy and legal documentation therefore matter.

Questions about whether the corporate identity presented online matches the operation actually handling investor information and money were central to AssetVault’s investigation of bvfcapital.com.

Australia Lists Murrius Group as Unlicensed

The most significant independent evidence comes from Australia’s official regulatory warning system.

On 7 September 2026, MoneySmart, operated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), added Murrius Group (murriusgroup.com) to its Investor Alert List.

The entry categorizes the operation as Unlicensed.

MoneySmart warns consumers that entities appearing on the Investor Alert List may be targeting Australians with financial or investment services without the appropriate authorization.

This means prospective investors should not rely on the institutional terminology, London address or financial-market presentation displayed by murriusgroup.com as evidence that the operation is appropriately licensed.

IOSCO Has Circulated the Murrius Group Warning Internationally

The warning has also entered the international I-SCAN database maintained by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO).

The international record identifies Murrius Group, murriusgroup.com and Australia – Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) as the jurisdiction and authority behind the originating warning.

The International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) listing should be understood as international circulation of the Australian warning rather than a separate fraud determination by IOSCO.

Its presence in I-SCAN nevertheless makes the warning accessible to investors outside Australia, which is particularly relevant for a website presenting itself as an international trading operation.

AssetVault Recovery’s Assessment: Is murriusgroup.com a Scam?

The evidence surrounding Murrius Group needs to be considered collectively.

The operation presents itself as an institutional-grade financial platform offering multiple investment products. It uses a London headquarters address, promotes forex and cryptocurrency trading and provides facilities for transactions involving USDT, USDC, Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Yet the domain was registered only in March 2026. Its legal documentation contains inconsistencies, and its own withdrawal policy contains provisions requiring certain charges to be paid separately rather than deducted from trading capital.

Most importantly, MoneySmart, operated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), has identified the exact domain and classified Murrius Group as Unlicensed. The warning has subsequently been circulated internationally through the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO).

The overall pattern is comparable to concerns AssetVault documented while investigating JPX (jpxmart.com), where the financial presentation of the website had to be measured against the regulatory evidence surrounding the actual operation.

Based on the Australian regulatory warning, the short operating history, the website’s financial representations and the withdrawal provisions identified during our investigation, AssetVault Recovery considers murriusgroup.com to display serious characteristics consistent with an investment scam. Investors should not send money or cryptocurrency to Murrius Group.

This represents AssetVault Recovery’s independent assessment. The formal Australian regulatory record classifies Murrius Group as Unlicensed.

Already Sent Money to Murrius Group?

If you have already deposited through murriusgroup.com, avoid sending additional money simply because you are told another payment is necessary before a withdrawal can be released.

Preserve bank-transfer confirmations, card-payment records, cryptocurrency transaction hashes, receiving wallet addresses, emails, account statements, screenshots and all conversations with anyone claiming to represent Murrius Group.

If you have specifically been asked to pay a separate management fee, service charge, tax, verification payment or withdrawal-release fee, retain the payment demand as evidence.

Do not delete your account or communications even if representatives stop responding.
