Darren Anthony Robinson added to FBI Most Wanted Fraudsters list

The FBI has added Darren Anthony Robinson to its ‘Most Wanted Fraudsters’ list following an indictment for an alleged $100 million Ponzi scheme. Robinson, 56, founded the boutique investment firm QYU Holdings in 2015 and operated it until June 2023.

Authorities allege that Robinson defrauded investors in the United States, Canada, Panama, and other regions by claiming funds would be used for foreign currency exchange trading. Instead, he allegedly used the money to pay earlier investors, cover business expenses, and fund a lavish personal lifestyle. The scheme reportedly impacted hundreds of victims, including retirees and families saving for college.

Robinson faces 11 counts of wire fraud and one count of money laundering. A federal arrest warrant was issued in January 2024, and he remains a fugitive. The FBI is currently offering a reward of up to $150,000 for information leading to his arrest.
