Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why AmbFx is on the register
AmbFx claims to be a brand of the VFSC-regulated Gleneagle Securities Pty Limited and operates in Australia as a CAR under Ambinvestments.co Pty Ltd. However, investigations reveal that while the VFSC entity exists, it lacks any registration of AmbFx’s brand or website, suggesting potential identity theft. Furthermore, the Australian ASIC system shows no record of Ambinvestments.co Pty Ltd, and the provided CAR number points to an entirely different entity with no connection to AmbFx. These discrepancies indicate that AmbFx is likely misappropriating legitimate regulatory information to fabricate compliance. Additionally, the Swiss regulator FINMA has issued a warning against AmbFx for unauthorized illegal activities, strongly indicating that AmbFx is a scam.
