Need help to verify if website is legitimate

Hello,
Could you please try to find out if this website is a scam, https://capital-infusions.com?

Thank you,

Hey there,

Thank you for reaching out. I’ve looked into this broker and it’s a scam. Please don’t use them or send them any money.

  • The URL you’ve sent me is a clone website pretending to be Capital Infusion. They use the same name and a similar logo, but their URL and website is different.
  • Another reason why I believe that this broker is a scam is that it’s not regulated at all. Although their website mentions that they are regulated by the “Financial Services Commission (FSC) of the United State” (yes, they even made a spelling mistake there), but I checked their license number and it’s fake.
  • In addition, I found a lot of other scam websites which have the exact same design and structure. I also checked the license number and registered address of these fake brokers and all of them claim to be registered under the same license number and address which is impossible. This is definitely a red flag:

Hello Andris,

Thank you so much for the quick response. I wish I had done this prior to sending them money, it was $1,500.00 in BTC :disappointed_relieved:. They have a private group on FB and it seems so legit. Thank God that Coinbase stopped me from sending them more BTC, they were asking for more, after the first two trades. Now I’m trying to get my BTC back and they have been delayed on their responses.

Is there a way I can make them give me my money back?

I really would appreciate the help you can give me.

Kind regards,

Ruth

Hi Ruth,

I am really sorry to hear this. Unfortunately, the recovery of funds from scam brokers is an extremely complex procedure and chances of success are rather low.

I recommend checking the following article where we collected a few things you can try to get your funds back: https://brokerchooser.com/forex/regulation/scams#how-to-recover-your-funds-when-scammed.

Firstly, you should report the forex scam to the appropriate authority, which is the financial regulatory body in your country that supervises forex companies.

Secondly, try to report the FB group to help and prevent others from being deceived.

In addition, I would recommend collecting as much evidence as possible. These should include the following:

  • Screenshots of deposits being made to the account and requests for withdrawal.
  • Screenshots of correspondence with customer support.
  • Recordings of the conversations with the broker’s customer support.
  • Account statements proving that the money was not credited within the specified period.

Also, please be careful with companies offering to get your money back. There are many scams that offer asset recovery services.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Best regards,
Andris

Hey there,

Thanks for your question. I’ve check the URL you’ve sent and based on my research it’s a scam broker. Please don’t use them.

The reasons are the following:

  • Smart Financial Edge is not regulated by any financial authority. Reliable brokers usually have the name of their regulator and license / regulation number shown in their footer.
  • The owner of the website uses a service to hide their identity and the domain is very new (registered only a couple of months ago). These are common red flags for scam websites​.
  • I’ve checked their contact address and I found something rather suspicious. A different scam broker, Morris Capitals (Switzerland) AG - which is on the warning list of the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) - has the same address as the one shown on Smart Financial Edge’s website. This is definitely a warning sign of a potential scam.

Hello, can you check if the website is legitimate or a scam?

Thank you very much

Hey there,

Thanks for your message. I’ve checked Finance Investment Limited and I believe it’s a scam. Please don’t use them or send them any money.

Here are the reasons why:

  • No regulatory information can be found of the company. Legitimate brokers usually display their regulator’s name and their license or regulation number, typically in their website’s footer.
  • I’ve cross-checked the contact information on their website and their address is fake. It belongs to another company called Excel Insurance.
  • Finance Investment Limited’s privacy policy and terms and conditions is suspiciously short and they have several red flags that are typically not associated with legitimate companies. For example, the extensive disclaimers of liability, including for errors, omissions, and potential security breaches, suggest that the company is trying to avoid responsibility for potential issues that may arise.
  • The pricing of their plans are extremely costly considering that the company has no reputation, which should be a warning sign.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Best,
Andris

I’ve already deposited money there with a woman from the US who apparently helped me and got me into the company to unlock a £50,000 bonus. Because the company gave me a bonus of £50,000. And I was supposed to deposit £5,000 so that I could get the bonus. Then apparently the woman deposited £1500 and I deposited the rest. Then, when I went to withdraw the money, another email came saying I had to deposit £314 to withdraw the money. Which of course I didn’t do. I have made a complaint to financial-ombudsman; maybe they can help me get my money back.

Hey,

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been caught up in this situation. Unfortunately, cases like these (a £50,000 bonus), which seem too good to be true, often are.

I’m glad you recognized the scam when they asked for more money to process the withdrawal. Scam brokers often demand extra deposits, citing withdrawal taxes or fees, but paying these will only lead to further losses without recovering your money.

The recovery of funds from scam brokers is an extremely complex procedure and chances of success are rather low. However, I would recommend checking the following article where we collected a few things you can try to get your funds back: https://brokerchooser.com/forex/regulation/scams#how-to-recover-your-funds-when-scammed.

I hope this helps.
