FinTelegram has been following the offshore activities of the FCA-regulated TIO Markets for some time. The Spanish CNMV and the Italian Consob have already issued warnings against the offshore broker TIOmarkets, operated by TIO Markets Ltd in St. Vincent & The Grenadines. This offshore broker is evidently related to the FCA-regulated investment firm. TIOmarkets is chasing after new European clients via Google ad campaigns. Praxis Pay and Monsas are the payment processors.
The Spanish regulator CNMV today issued a warning against broker scam TIOMarkets (www.tiomarkets.com). TIO Markets Ltd, registered in St. Vincent & The Grenadines, is allegedly running the scam. Potential victims are chased via the fake site of DonauCapital Wertpapier GmbH (www.donaucapital.es) pretends to be a German investment company regulated by the CNMV. After registration, victims receive a welcome email from TIOMarkets and are redirected to their website.
