    Persons providing false FMA documentation in suspected scam

    The FMA is aware that false letters and receipts featuring the FMA logo and staff names have been used overseas to solicit money.

The correspondence is fictitious and characteristic of advance fee fraud. The FMA does not undertake activities of the type described in the letter and would never ask individuals or entities for money for activities or transactions of this type.”

However, we also plan to publish a corporate plan later this year outlining our key areas of focus and work programme, once there is greater certainty on the impact of COVID-19 on the financial sector.
