LW Management (lw-mgmt.info) Scam: FCA Clone Firm Warning

LW Management (lw-mgmt.info) Scam: FCA Clone Firm Warning

LW Management uses a shortened form of the name of a small UK wealth management firm that really operates, and markets forex, share and crypto investments from three separate .info domains. On 29 October 2026 the FCA added the scheme to its warning list as a "clone of an authorised firm".

In short: LW Management is not authorised in Türkiye by the Capital Markets Board (SPK). The identity of a real British company is borrowed to run a personal-adviser account and "investment loan" scheme. Claiming back the money sent is legally possible.

🪞 The Cloned Company and the Real Firm

The company being imitated is Links Wealth Management Limited, registered in Surrey; it has nothing to do with the LW Management sites. The clone operation, for its part, uses an address on Old Broad Street in London and presents itself as an established intermediary holding banking licences in many countries. This is the typical picture of the brokerage and bank clone site method.

💸 The Adviser, the Plans and the "Investment Loan" Trap

  • After registration a "personal adviser" is assigned; tiered membership plans promise higher leverage and "risk-free trading".
  • The site suggests that people whose savings fall short should take out a loan and invest, with the line "grow with someone else's capital".
  • A euro-denominated "interest-bearing capital placement" contract is claimed to be covered by a state deposit guarantee.

🔍 Domains, Phone Number and Names Used

lw-management.info was registered in July, lw-manage.info in August and lw-mgmt.info in October 2026, while the site traces its founding back many years. The number in the FCA record is +44 7441 421816. The names Erik Lindberg, Sophia Bergman, Daniel Ahlström and Johan Wallin are used on the site as representatives. LW Management does not appear on the list of SPK-authorised brokerage firms; unauthorised activity falls under Article 109 of Law No. 6362.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Are Links Wealth Management and LW Management the same company?

No. Links Wealth Management Limited is a real firm registered with the FCA; the LW Management sites are a clone operation that uses its name without permission.

My adviser suggested I take out a loan to invest. Is that normal?

In these schemes, the loan suggestion is a step used to keep the money flowing after the victim's savings have run out.

I was told my euro account was state-guaranteed. Is that true?

An account on an unauthorised platform is not covered by any deposit insurance; the claim is meant to win trust.

Is there any address besides lw-mgmt.info?
