A questionnaire was published on the FBI website, the answers to which will be used as part of the “ongoing investigation”.

“ If you have questions or concerns about your QuadrigaCX account, or if you believe you are a victim, please complete this brief questionnaire. Your responses are voluntary but would be useful in the federal investigation and to identify you as a potential victim. Based on the responses provided, you may be contacted by the FBI and asked to provide additional information,” is witen on FBI’s website.

Users are asked to provide their usernames on the crypto exchange and report whether they passed the verification. It is necessary to report what approximate balance in the account they had as of January 31, 2019, and when they concluded the last transaction using the trading platform, and also indicate related information, including the availability of deposit addresses and statements.
