The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) Launches a Warning against CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com

The FMA has suggested that according to its findings, CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com seems to be running an online scam targeting investors from around the world.

The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) from New Zealand has just issued a warning against CapitalnvestmentsTrust.com. In the warning, the financial regulatory authority has intimated the entire investment community in New Zealand to remain cautious of the website operator.

In the warning issued by the Financial Markets Authority, it has shared its concerns over the operations of the CapialInvestmentsTrust.com. The FMA has suggested that according to its findings, CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com seems to be running an online scam targeting investors from around the world.

Reasons behind Launching a Warning against CapialInvestments.com

In the warning, the Financial Markets Authority has confirmed the reason for issuing the warning in the first place. The FMA has revealed that they have received complaints from several local investors that triggered an investigation from their end surrounding CapitalInvestments.

The complaints launched against the website are related to CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com making false claims about their services. The FMA has enquired about the platform and has thus established that CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com is indeed making false claims about its services. According to the FMA, the majority of the complaints they have received against CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com are related to misconduct reports launched against it.

Identity Concealment with Registered Company in New Zealand

The Financial Markets Authority has also confirmed that the particular website is using details of a New Zealand-registered company to conceal its true identity. The FMA has revealed that it is currently claiming to be part of the Capital Investments Trust Limited that is a registered company in New Zealand. The registration number for the legit company is 1547699 and CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com is using it as a cover-up to mislead locals.

The legitimate company, Capital Investments Trust Limited, has confirmed it has nothing to do with the particular website or its developers. The legal company has also confirmed that they had no idea that their legal information was being used by such an entity in order to mislead locals in the country. The company has, therefore, announced that it has no connection or association with the operators of the website or the services being offered.

CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com is not a Registered Financial Entity in New Zealand

The FMA has announced that CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com is not a registered or licensed entity in New Zealand to offer any kind of financial services. Therefore, the platform is unregulated and unauthorized to offer any kinds of financial services, securities, or investment options to locals.

Therefore, the locals interacting with the website and its services must remain cautious and stay vigilant with their investments in the website.

Information Gathered by FMA against CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com

In the warning, the FMA has also released the information that it has collected from the particular website as well as from other sources.

According to the FMA, the website claims it has authorization from the Danish Business Authority (DBA) and is licensed to provide financial services. However, the DBA has confirmed there is no such registration or licensing granted to CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com from their end.

The FMA has confirmed that CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com is not a registered company in New Zealand. It doesn’t even have any link with the NZ-based Capital Investments Trust Limited Company. This means that the physical address it has provided on its website is also misleading.

In the light of the above claims, it was obvious that the website had to be either from Denmark or from New Zealand. After tracking the IP address of the website, it was established that the website is being operated from the United States as the IP is from there.

In the light of the above findings, the Financial Markets Authority has announced that the website is offering its services illegally. The platform is not permitted to offer its services in New Zealand, therefore, the local investors must also be mindful of that.

Services CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com Claims to Offer

CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com claims that it offers investment opportunities in cryptocurrencies for New Zealand investors. The website claims that the withdrawals through its platform are instant and have no wait time.

The website is currently accessible through CapitalInvestmentsTrust.com and it is operating under the company name “Capital Investments Trust”. The email being offered by the website is [email protected].
