Altura Finance Scam Warning: FCA and Finanstilsynet Alerts

Altura Finance says it has an office in London's financial centre, Canary Wharf, and offers investment services at alturafinance.live and mail.alturafinance.live. Yet the domain was registered only in July 2026 and within a few days it entered the warning lists of two separate European supervisory authorities.

In short: Altura Finance is not authorised in Türkiye by the Capital Markets Board (SPK). In schemes built on a prestigious-address claim and guidance by phone, the money gets locked behind a chain of fees at the withdrawal stage. Legal routes exist for claiming back the amounts paid.

🔍 Warnings from Foreign Authorities

  • The UK financial supervisory authority, the FCA, listed the firm as an unauthorised firm on 20.07.2026; the entry was updated on 24.07.2026.
  • Norway's Finanstilsynet announced the same warning on 21.07.2026; two entries also appear on the IOSCO warning network.
  • The FCA entry gives +7027064466 as the firm's telephone number.
  • The domain alturafinance.live was registered on 13.07.2026.

The platform does not appear on the list of SPK-authorised institutions; unauthorised capital markets activity is defined as a criminal offence under Article 109 of Capital Markets Law No. 6362.

🚩 The Scheme Followed in Cases of This Kind

In schemes of this kind the investor is approached by e-mail or telephone, and trust is built with a London address and talk of a "supervised institution". Profit appears on the dashboard; when a withdrawal is requested, successive payments are demanded under the names of tax, commission or account verification. Our article on Altura FX forex fraudTR rests on a separate FCA warning about a similar name; a link between the two operations has not been proven.

🔗 Other Sites Working with Licence and Address Claims

We have covered platforms before that use an overseas address and licence talk as a trust tool:

🧭 How Does the Legal Process Work?

  1. The trail of the money sent to a foreign scheme and the possibility of a refund from an overseas forex firm are assessed.
  2. The jurisdiction clause in the contract and the arbitration clause of overseas brokers are examined.
  3. The conduct becomes the subject of a criminal investigation under the provisions on qualified fraudTR.
