The genuine FIM Capital Limited is licensed to undertake a number of regulated activities in the Isle of Man. They have confirmed that the bogus entity is in no way connected to them or their business activities in the Isle of Man.
If you are in any way concerned about contact you have had with FIM Capital Limited you can contact them through their legitimate website at www.fimcapital.co.im
Under the circumstances, the Authority is concerned that any person who has followed the links on the bogus social media posts relating to FIM Capital Limited may potentially become the victim of fraud or it may be an attempt at gaining personal data from the browser in order to steal their identity.
