Maxi Finance is falsely claiming to be a New Zealand company and is involved in a scam, for the following reasons:
New Zealand's watchdog FMA received a report from a member of the public who was unable to withdraw funds invested with Maxi Finance.
A New Zealand certificate of incorporation for “Maxi-Finance Limited” is displayed on their website which which is not believed that is legitimate.
Maxi Finance claims to be a New Zealand company but there are inconsistencies in the registered office addresses identified on its website.
The landline telephone number is inconsistent with the location of the New Zealand registered office address listed on its website. FMA notes that this number is an invalid telephone number; and
FMA believes the persons in the staff images displayed on its website are not employees of Maxi Finance, as claimed on its website.
Brokerswatch recommends investing only with brokers that are regulated by reputable authority.
Reputable regulatory authority provides additional protection to investors by ensuring that financial firms apply proper standards and rules. Additionally, if the broker tries to cheat you out of your money, it is the regulator’s job to force the financial firm to compensate you for any wrongdoing.
