HAWKSTONE FARLEY GROUP LTD Reference number: 987531 View firm →What does this mean?
- An introducer appointed representative can only pass your details to its principal firm. It cannot recommend products, give financial advice, or arrange deals on its own.
- T R MOTOR COMPANY SOUTHAMPTON LTD (FRN 1055821) introduces customers to HAWKSTONE FARLEY GROUP LTD (FRN 987531). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not T R MOTOR COMPANY SOUTHAMPTON.
- Example: if T R MOTOR COMPANY SOUTHAMPTON refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from T R MOTOR COMPANY SOUTHAMPTON itself.
- Before you proceed, confirm contact details match the official FCA register for both firms. Scammers sometimes clone legitimate AR names and FRNs but use fake phone numbers and websites.
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.
