themoneycompass.net: Clone Site Selling Pre-IPO Shares

themoneycompass.net is a clone site that presents itself as a fintech software company while using the name and register identity of a genuine UK-authorised financial firm. The real trap is its "Investor Relations" page: by claiming that the company is preparing for an IPO, it offers visitors the chance to buy pre-IPO shares.

In short: themoneycompass.net is not authorised in Türkiye by the Capital Markets Board (SPK); the UK financial authority, the FCA, has placed the site on its warning list as a clone firm. The method is selling pre-IPO shares on the basis of invented financial statements. Legal routes exist for claiming back money sent to schemes of this kind.

🚩 The Share Invitation on the Investor Relations Page

  • The site displays unverifiable financial data such as turnover and profitability tables, a "Series C" funding round and a high company valuation.
  • It promises the chance to become an early shareholder, saying that the company is preparing for an IPO.
  • Investment requests are directed to an investor relations email address given on the site.

In Türkiye, selling shares without prospectus approval and unauthorised capital markets activity are criminal offences under Article 109 of Capital Markets Law No. 6362. The site does not appear in the SPK list of authorised institutions; it is not authorised by the SPK.

🔍 The Cloned Identity and the Position of the Real Firm

In a clone firm warning published on 16 September 2026, the FCA stated that the site imitates the authorised firm Money Compass Limited, and shared the number +44 7538 082830 as linked to the clone. The domain was registered on 10 July 2026, only a few months before the warning; the page code also contains traces of copying that point to another domain.

The real Money Compass Limited has no connection with this site or with the share offer; its name and register details are being misused.
