Authorised, but listed with contact details that may be wrong

The FCA warns that the contact details on this record may be incorrect, so do not rely on them to decide whether someone contacting you is genuine. Reach the firm through a channel you already trust.

What the FCA says

Attention - Firm’s listed individuals may be incorrect

We are urgently reviewing this firm’s records on the Register and are in contact with the firm. As the firm’s records have not been verified or updated they may not be accurate. If you have any concerns about this firm, please report these to the FCA.

Website, phone number and address

Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.

Money taken from sales in the year, before any costs.
Profit before tax
What was left after the year’s costs, before corporation tax. A minus figure is a loss.
