Credit Suisse (CLONE) is not authorised to provide investment services to persons in Ireland. The firm purports to be based in the United Kingdom. In this instance, the fraudulent entity cloned and impersonated legitimate Central Bank authorised firms in order to deceive consumers. The scam entity reached out to consumers via email seeking to sell fake bonds. This unauthorised firm has cloned the name of the legitimate firm: Credit Suisse, which is authorised by the Central Bank. It should be noted that there is no connection whatsoever between the Central Bank authorised firm and the unauthorised firm. |
