What happened

The UK Financial Conduct Authority published a warning on October 14, 2026 that quorumcapitalltd.com (website http://quorumcapitalltd.com/) is a clone firm. It is not authorised by the FCA but has been contacting people pretending to be an authorised firm.

The genuine authorised firm, Quorum Capital Limited (FRN 601037, website quorumcapital.co.uk), has no connection with the clone. Quorum Capital was impersonated, not involved.

How the scam works

A clone firm copies the details of a firm the FCA authorises, such as its name, address or Firm Reference Number, so that anyone who checks the register finds a real, authorised company. The FCA warns scammers may give out other false details, including email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses and FRNs, mix them with the genuine firm's details, and change them over time.

If you deal with an unauthorised firm, you won't have access to the Financial Ombudsman Service and won't be protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, so it's unlikely you'd get your money back if things go wrong. Payments sent to a fraudster on or after 7 October 2024 may be covered by Payment Systems Regulator protections.
