Licences on registers we hold
Inclusion on a register is not a recommendation. What the public registers we hold record under this name. A register entry confirms permissions in that jurisdiction, not an endorsement.
Sanctions name-matches
No crypto address in our copy of the OFAC list is designated under this name. That list covers only designations that carry a crypto address; it is not a full sanctions screen.
Broker discovery record
The Collexon broker discovery engine (broker.collexon.io), operated by Lee Mor holds a record under this name.

First recorded 2026-08-24 · last seen 2026-10-19
This site advertises 2 licences: FCA 938277; FCA. We could not confirm it in the registers we hold.
That is a statement about our own coverage, not about the firm. We hold the EU registers; a licence issued in Mauritius, Vanuatu, Seychelles, the UK or the US would not appear in them whether or not it is real. Ask which authority and what number, then check that authority’s own register — never a certificate sent to you.
5 dated observations on record
Found and dated by the Collexon broker discovery engine (broker.collexon.io), operated by Lee Mor. We can evidence that it recorded these; we have not independently established the underlying claims except where a register we hold is cited above. Each links to the page it was read from.

Before you send money
Protect yourself before committing funds to any financial entity or platform.
Check the register directly
Always check the regulator's own official register and use only the contact details published there, never the details given in a message or cold call.
How to protect yourself
If a firm is not authorised to operate in your country, you will have no access to statutory compensation schemes or the financial ombudsman if things go wrong.
Report an unauthorised firm
If you have been targeted by an unauthorised firm or lost funds, report it to your national financial authority and police. Where to report →
What this record does not tell you
- It is not our finding. Nothing on this page says this subject committed fraud. It records what named authorities published, on the dates shown.
- A warning is the regulator's statement, not a conviction. Many lists name firms that are not licensed in that jurisdiction, or that were reported by the public.
- Same name, different entity. Names are matched as written. A legitimate firm can share a name with a warned entity, and clones copy real names deliberately.
- Absence is not clearance. An entity with no page here may simply not have been warned about yet — that is the normal state of a new fraud.
- Something wrong? Tell us — we correct the record and say so. Tell us
