Global Capital Network Ltd Scam: FCA-Listed .top Site

The site using the name Global Capital Network Ltd was opened on a cheap .top domain and claimed to offer forex, derivatives and crypto asset investment. The domain was bought in April 2026, and only three and a half months later the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) added the site to its list of unauthorised firms. Since September 2026 the site's hosting account appears to have been suspended.

🧩 Contradictions in the Address and Phone Number

According to the FCA entry, the site used the address 1 Canada Square (Canary Wharf) in London, yet the country on the same line is given as "United States of America". For contact, a mobile number written as +7027064466 and the email address [email protected] were provided. Other investment sites were added to the list on the same day with the same Canary Wharf address, which suggests the address was used like a ready-made template.

⏳ The Story of a Six-Month-Old Domain

• 5 April 2026: the domain globalcapitalnetworkltd.top was registered.
• 20 July 2026: the FCA warning about unauthorised activity was published; in the IOSCO warning network the products were classified as forex, CFDs, options and crypto.
• September–October 2026: the site fell to an "account suspended" page.
