Sky Zero Bond Offer Scam Review - Not Climate Bonds

By J Drew -

 Sky Zero is a genuine incentive for Sky to reduce their carbon footprint and hit net zero emissions by 2030. The Sky Zero bond offer being sent out in their name is not.

In addition the same scammers are now using SSE and Wells Fargo names for their scams.

https://www.skygroup.sky/sky-zero

However scammers are using the Sky Zero name to email out bond offers to unsuspecting investors offering up to 3.75% for investments of over £50,000 for 12 months.

REMEMBER - it is illegal for companies to sell bonds directly to the public now so this scam is not genuine.

These investments are nothing to do with Sky or Sky Zero and are scammers taking advantage of the Sky Zero name to persuade people to part with their money for worthless bonds. If you hand cash over you are unlikely to ever see it again and the scammers will have disappeared in 12 months when you want to get your money back!

It appears that they are trying to confuse the green/climate bonds that are being legitimately offered with the Sky Zero initiative to scam people - make sure you check what you are investing in. 

The fake website is skyzero.online which has absolutely nothing to do with Sky and was only registered in December 2021. The website also shows a fake address of a shopping centre Royal Victoria Place, Tunbridge Wells, TN1 2SS which has a website https://www.royalvictoriaplace.com/

    I've received an email and was quite convincing . I registered my interest and a guy phoned Me today. He said to act quick as they won't be available at the end of next week he said he was emailing the forms to fill in, and I did I'll have to look in to it for a scam and he said its legit and can be searched online with something or other for proof. I won't be investing but if it is a scam it is quite convincing as I have been with sky for ages

      Please let us know what Sky say. You can be sure they'll know nothing about this "bond" offer. The tactic of putting the pressure of time limits on the offer is a typical scam tactic - they won't be here next week because they'll have moved on to the next thing!

      I also received this email and registered my interest. Like you, a guy phoned me and wanted me to go online as I spoke to him. I told him this was not convenient and asked him to send an email with all the details. Five hours later - nothing !

Concept Capital Group Review - Is it Genuine or a Scam?

By J Drew -
Image
Investment in Concept Capital Group is being promoted on Facebook and Rightmove to solicit investment in their static caravans for rental to social housing tenants via Social Park Housing. Concept Capital Group are claiming to guarantee rental income of 10% but as investors in London Capital & Finance are fully aware, this sort of guarantee is fully dependent on the company making it still being in business. If the company fails for any reason then there will be no-one to support the guarantee or to return money to investors.  Update November 2024: It's reported on MSE that investors are struggling to get repayments of their investments with various excuses. If the company fails your guarantee disappears. Concept Capital Group have only existed since 2019 so have no track record of honouring investment guarantees over the long term.

London Capital & Finance Trial 2024 - Latest Court News

By J Drew -

The trial of various individuals associated with LCF (London Capital and Finance) started in Feb 2024. There seems little mainstream coverage of the proceedings, probably because they are quite technical and maybe generally of interest to a small group of affected investors. However I've found an excellent resource that is giving daily transcripts of the proceedings and to say they were enlightening would be an understatement. As someone who has been involved in investigating LCF for nearly 8 years it is fascinating to read the behind the scenes details of how the company was setup and how accurate some of my summaries were. Sadly many of the details couldn't be published at the time because without more evidence they would have been considered libellous but the emails from LCF now show how their scheme was planned from the start.

Where are the People and assets behind LCF & their agent Surge Financial? London Capital & Finance owned a helicopter purchased by Andy Thomson. LCF helicopter seized This has now been seized and is being held at Shoreham Airport in Sussex. According to the administrators one of the loans of £12 million was to a stables called Home Farm originally run by Spencer Golding but now owned by Sean Cubitt who was unable to provide any paperwork for the purchase of the company or for any of the horses. There were originally 85 horses apparently with a combined values of £15 million according to the owners but when the administrators visited they could only see 35 that had a value of less than £10,000 each. Sean Cubitt claimed that there was no bank account for the company that runs Home Farm. So a company with no bank account was loaned £12 million by LCF. Yet another example of the lies they told to investors about their lending process. We understand that the val...
