We hereby wish to caution all investors that certain unknown individuals have created multiple unauthorized groups/Handles on WhatsApp / Facebook (“Social media groups”) and are misusing the brand name/logo of Axis Capital and its Group companies and their JV Partners. These fraudsters have also circulated links to a vast number of investors urging them to join these Social media groups and use their expertise on investing in Stock Markets.
Axis Capital has identified the following Facebook / WhatsApp groups viz. “Schroders Academy VIP85” “Schroders Academy VIP60”, “Schroders College VIP63”, “AXIS Manager Schroders” and such other similar other groups, which represent themselves as part of “Schroders Group and/or Axis AMC” claiming to be a financial service organization offering trading facilities via Axis Capital’s platform. They have also been circulating a forged SEBI registration certificate of Axis Capital to prove that they are SEBI Registered Brokers.
Such Social media groups are driven by the intent to mislead / defraud investors by promising them high returns on their investment. We hereby clarify that neither Axis Capital nor any of our group companies and their JV Partners are in any manner associated with the above Social media groups or any other general group on whatsapp and have not provided any permission or license to use the brand name / logo of Axis Group and their JV Partners.
