The scam narrative
The BaFin informed that EUFM a faked BaFin document to make its own respectability credible. The regulator makes clear that it has not signed any document in favor of EUFM LTD. Furthermore, BaFin has become aware that EUFM LTD has sent further forged letters from a German authority and a German insurance company to customers.
The unregulated payment providers Paypound and PayCent are also notorious scam facilitators.
On Trustpilot, EUFM has a 2.6-star rating with a corresponding “Poor” trust level. As with most scams, the 4 and 5-star reviews look like fakes or ordered (invited) reviews.
