Glen Elgin Investments Scam: Cloned Pre-IPO Share Site

Offering "early access" to pre-IPO shares, glenelgininvestments.com presents itself as a capital growth adviser that charges a fee only when the client makes a profit. Australia's market regulator ASIC, however, has published a warning that the site is a clone imitating the name of the Australian-registered Glen Elgin Investments Pty Ltd.

🚩 The "No Fee Unless You Profit" Story

The site offers stock market shares, pre-IPO stakes, fixed-term products and private equity funds under one roof, and stresses that a fee is taken only from profits actually made. This pitch makes it look as if the risk has been lifted from the investor. On clone sites carrying the name of a real institution, the conversation is run by an "adviser" over the phone; the money is sent to accounts abroad, and an extra payment is then requested on the grounds that the IPO has been postponed or the shares are locked.
