lpdcapital.co.uk Clone Site: Scam Misusing LPD Capital Name

Copying the name and registration details of a company that genuinely operates in the United Kingdom, lpdcapital.co.uk is a clone site built to give investors the impression that they are dealing with "a supervised British financial firm". On 9 June 2026 the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) listed this domain as an "FCA-registered firm clone".

In short: lpdcapital.co.uk is not authorised in Türkiye by the Capital Markets Board (SPK); the real company whose name is copied has no connection with this scheme, and its name is being misused. In clone schemes the money goes not to the real company but to the fraudsters' accounts. Legal routes exist for claiming back money sent this way.

🪞 The Difference Between the Real Company and the Clone

The company whose name is used, LPD Capital Limited, is a British company with an address in Hull (East Yorkshire), entered on the FCA register under reference number 1016105; the FCA has clearly stated that this company has nothing to do with the clone site. The clone, by contrast, uses the same name with a different London address and its own telephone line.

In clone schemes of this kind the investor is offered a high fixed-return bond, a savings account or a managed portfolio; trust is won by showing the real company's registration number. The clone site scheme that copies an institution's name is the common backbone of these cases.

🔍 The Traces the Clone Left Behind

  • Telephone used by the clone: +44 20 8040 3121
  • Declared address: 1 America Square, London EC3N 2LS (not the real company's address)
  • The domain was registered on 5 October 2025 and is now suspended by the registry; the site does not open.

The platform does not appear on the SPK list of authorised intermediary institutions; unauthorised capital markets activity is a crime under Article 109 of Capital Markets Law No. 6362. The real company's registration in the United Kingdom is also not valid for investment services in Türkiye.
