Fraud warning: impersonation of Titan Wealth Holdings Limited
Fraud warning: impersonation of Titan Wealth Holdings Limited
titanwealthlimited.world and titanwealthlimited.com (the impersonating websites)
We are warning islanders about an online scam that is impersonating and falsely purporting to represent Titan Wealth Holdings Limited, part of the Titan Wealth Group with an office based in Jersey. The impersonating entity is advertising a trading platform for investments in forex, commodities, stock and indices markets.
The JFSC confirms the impersonating entity and websites are not connected in any way to the genuine Jersey registered company, Titan Wealth Holdings Limited based at First Floor Durell House, 28 New Street, St Helier, Jersey, JE2 3RA, nor the JFSC regulated company, Titan Wealth (CI) Limited, based at Titan House, Liberation Square, St Helier, Jersey, JE2 3NA.
Anyone who has had dealings with the impersonating entity is asked to contact the JFSC’s Enforcement team.
We are urging the public to be cautious when faced with unsolicited investment opportunities, online adverts, or social media promotions.
Rise in impersonation scams
We continue to see an increase in impersonation scams. Criminals are becoming more sophisticated and often pretend to be:
- local professionals
- government authorities
- financial regulators
- well known organisations
- friends or family members
They may use real names, cloned websites, copied branding, and AI generated images or voices. Their aim is simple: to convince you they are genuine and pressure you into transferring money or sharing personal information.
How to spot a scam
If you receive an unexpected message, friend request, email, text, call or letter, look for signs that it may be a scam. These can include but are not limited to:
- spelling mistakes and poor grammar
- pressure and urgency for you to do something
- asking or telling you to click on a link
- unusual payment methods
- unusual communication methods
- promises or offers that seem too good to be true
- requests for sensitive and/or personal information
- website addresses and social media accounts that contain small changes from genuine sites
How to protect yourself
Stop – Pause before responding to unexpected calls, messages, or adverts, especially if you are being asked to act quickly.
Check - Confirm who you are speaking to. Use contact details from an official website. If you are unsure about an investment or financial service, check if it is registered with the JFSC.
Protect – Never share personal or financial information with someone you do not know. If something seems too good to be true, it usually is.
