Identity

Check their details

Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.

Activities and protection

What they can do, and how you are protected

  • Handle payments & transfers No FSCS cover
    Safeguarding is optional for a payment firm of this size, so your money may not be held in a separate protected account. Ask the firm whether it safeguards customer funds before sending it money. FSCS protection does not apply either way.
