Erscheinung:13.06.2025 | Topic Unauthorised business, Consumer protection Identity fraud: BaFin additionally warns consumers about the website goldingdigital.net
On 22 May 2025, BaFin issued a warning about the services being offered on the website goldingdigital.com, which has since been deactivated. The unknown operators are now using the website goldingdigital.net. BaFin suspects the operators of this website of offering consumers financial and investment services without the required authorisation. Contrary to the claims on the website, the services being offered do not originate from Golding Capital Partners GmbH, which has its registered office in Munich. This is a case of identity fraud.
BaFin is issuing this warning on the basis of section 37 (4) of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz – KWG).
Please be aware:
BaFin, the German Federal Criminal Police Office (Bundeskriminalamt – BKA) and the German state criminal police offices (Landeskriminalämter) recommend that consumers seeking to invest money online should exercise the utmost caution and do the necessary research beforehand in order to identify fraud attempts at an early stage.
