What does this mean?
  • An introducer appointed representative can only pass your details to its principal firm. It cannot recommend products, give financial advice, or arrange deals on its own.
  • LPTE Limited (FRN 932273) introduces customers to 3mc (U.K.) Limited (FRN 302992). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not LPTE.
  • Example: if LPTE refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from LPTE itself.
  • Before you proceed, confirm contact details match the official FCA register for both firms. Scammers sometimes clone legitimate AR names and FRNs but use fake phone numbers and websites.

Identity

Check their details
