Beware of "Capitalsmith" and other fraudulent investment scams
We have recently become aware of a fraudulent company called “Capitalsmith,” falsely claiming to represent or be connected with Fundsmith. Please note that Capitalsmith has no affiliation whatsoever with Fundsmith.
Beware of criminals who pose as members of our team, make false claims about trading ideas, request money, or ask you to click links to download files. Fundsmith will never provide investment advice or communicate directly through social media channels.
Please report any fake groups to us at cybersecurity@fundsmith.co.uk. We will take steps to have these groups removed.
For further assistance or if you have any concerns, you can call us on 0330 123 1815.
Additionally, you may report any suspicious firm or scam directly to the FCA by contacting their Consumer Helpline on 0800 111 6768 or via their online reporting form.
