rivet-partners.org – Scam Misusing the Rivet Partners AG Name

rivet-partners.org is an investment website set up using the name and address of a real company registered in Schindellegi, in the Swiss canton of Schwyz. While the visitor believes they are dealing with an established Swiss financial company, the money is sent to a team that has no connection with the company.

🪞 The Difference Between the Real Company and the Clone Site

• Rivet Partners AG is a company entered in the Swiss commercial register in Schindellegi and is not behind this site. It has no connection with this scheme; its name is being misused.
• rivet-partners.org, on the other hand, was registered in February 2026; its registration details were updated in October 2026, shortly before the warning.
• The FINMA entry states that the site has no entry in the register.

🚩 How Is Money Collected on a Clone Site?

On clone sites of this kind, the real company's name, address and even register number are used as a means of building trust. A "portfolio manager" who makes contact by telephone offers high-yield fixed-income products, pre-IPO shares or a managed account. The money is requested into accounts belonging to third parties, not in the company's name; new fees appear at the withdrawal stage.

rivet-partners.org is not authorised by SPK; institutions permitted in Türkiye are found in the SPK list of intermediary institutions. Building trust with the name of a real company and taking money over the internet is assessed under the provisions on qualified fraud in Article 158 of the Turkish Penal Code.
