Learn how to spot fake websites
Did you spot it? Now report it!
Axi takes a proactive role in preventing online fraud and protecting your funds and personal information. We highly advise you to act immediately, if you suspect a fraudulent website by reporting it directly to Axi.
If someone calls you or sends you text messages claiming to be Axi, we need to be informed immediately. Get in touch using
service.eu@axi.com.
Think before you click on a link or attachment supposedly from your bank, utilities providers, tax service or other legitimate organisations. Fraudsters often use sophisticated communication methods. Make sure to check for spelling errors and email addresses that don’t seem right. If in doubt, don’t click.
Websites should display the secure https protocol, which indicates that all communications with the server are encrypted. If there is no secure browsing mode, this means that the site is vulnerable to hackers and cyberattacks.
Steer clear of any websites claiming to be a legitimate and reputable company but are only created recently. An example of a fake Axi domain is axiau.pro.
Ensure you have internet security in place but remember this software will not provide 100% protection and all the other steps should still be taken.
Review the privacy settings on your social media accounts and check what information you are publicly sharing. It will be safest to only allow friends to see your posts, comments and profile information. You may see "Sign Up with Facebook" or "Sign Up with Google" options but try and avoid logging into other sites with your social media credentials.
CySEC has from, time-to-time, detected cases of fraudulent impersonation of CySEC Officers and representatives by imposters requesting information from the email recipients, or soliciting fees, in exchange for settlement of bogus compensation claims related to firms under CySEC supervision.
Investors should remember that CySEC never sends unsolicited correspondence to investors or members of the public, nor does it ever request any personal data, financial or otherwise. Investors are strongly advised to contact CySEC to confirm the authenticity of any such communication by contacting info@cysec.gov.cy before taking any action. CySEC has issued multiple public warnings when similar cases occur, which are published on its website, such as this warning. You can find the up-to-date CySEC warning list here.
