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.
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.
Secure websites:
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.
Spot fake domain names:
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.
Internet security package:
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.
Privacy Settings:
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.
Social media and fraud awareness
Fraudsters set up social media accounts and include false images of trading statements and cash balances to make claims that they are profitable traders.
If you are approached out of the blue on a social media site by someone offering an investment opportunity it is probably a scam.
Individuals may claim to work for, or be affiliated with, genuine regulated firms using logos or other altered images. Always check your local financial regulator’s website and use verifiable contact details.
Please be wary of payments made to an account that is not in the name of the company.
If you have any doubts about who you are dealing with you are advised to check the FCA’s register to confirm contact details. For more information please visit www.fca.org.uk/scamsmart.
If you have been a victim of fraud you are advised to report to Action Fraud by phoning them on 0300 123 2040. For more information please visit www.actionfraud.police.uk.
