Don't get involved with dodgy investment sites

Saturday, 23 November 2024 16:55

The Island's financial regulator is warning people not to have anything to do with two dodgy investment sites that claim to be based here.

The Financial Services Authority says the Deluxe Trade and Skyways Capital sites claim to be based on the Isle of Man and offer banking and investment products.

But the FSA says investigation show neither are registered or operating on the Island - and aren't connected to the genuine companies they say.

The organisation says they're run by fraudsters and you should have nothing to do with them.
