Lincoln Finance Just Got Cloned
Fraudsters are back with a clone firm mimicking the investment group Lincoln Finance Ltd, targeting people in the UK. Lincoln FX fraudulently claimed to offer forex trading services under the company’s care, according to the Financial Conduct Authority.
The finance brokerage doesn’t offer said service but specializes in retail asset solutions for businesses and private individuals.
www.lincolnfx.capital features the original company’s regulatory license numbers at the foot of each web page. However, the FCA-authorized broker is only available at www.lincolnfinance.co.uk.
Some cloned scams contacted the FCA in past months, claiming to represent regulated firms.
Frauds ask the FCA to change original companies’ contact details because the details were “out of date.” Clone firms aim to make themselves come off as genuine with their own contact and website details to potential victims.
Anyone who chooses the said firm should keep in mind that the regulator won’t be liable for damages. Giving money to unauthorized firms enhances the chances of great losses.
