REASON FOR WARNING:

The FMA recommends exercising caution before dealing with Thompson Mergers, Newcorp Capital and the website www.thompsonmergers.com.

We have received complaints from New Zealand residents about Thompson Mergers and Newcorp Capital.  Newcorp Capital has made unsolicited calls to New Zealand residents offering them various financial products with payments to be made into bank accounts in the names of third parties. It subsequently became unavailable for their clients to contact.

Thompson Mergers claimed to be taking over Newcorp’s client’s accounts, and asked for various fees to be paid in advance release of the clients’ funds which were previously invested with Newcorp. It is known that an investor has paid all those fees as requested but did not receive his funds.

We believe these entities have the hallmarks of a scam. Newcorp Capital has been included in the “Investors Alert” of the Financial Services Agency of Japan as a cold calling entity. Thompson Mergers purports to be operating from a business address in Japan but it is not registered or authorized to provide financial services in Japan.
