[RSS]

The German Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) warns against WhatsApp groups such as „S373 Robeco Kernmitgliedergruppe“, “M2 Robeco Value Investing Kreis“ and „999 Robeco Investment Strategiezentrum – Blockhandel“, which are allegedly operated by the Frankfurt a.M.-based company Robeco Deutschland, Zweigniederlassung der Robeco Institutional Asset Management B.V. („Robeco“). In the WhatsApp groups consumers are enticed to trade financial products via the app „RBC NL“. It is suspected that the unknown operators are offering banking and financial services without the required authorisation. The offers do not originate from Robeco, an affiliated company, or its employees. Robeco does not sell financial products via WhatsApp groups or other social networks. It is a case of identity fraud at the expense of the company.
