Fraud Prevention
Like many major firms, Nexus Arb's name, logo, and the identities of our team members may be used in fraudulent schemes. While rare, these attempts can pose significant financial risks to our clients.
Beware of Fraudulent Investment Offers and Job Scams
Scammers may impersonate Nexus Arb or its representatives to promote fraudulent investments, often making misleading claims about returns. While certain structured opportunities such as arbitrage strategies can provide predictable outcomes, legitimate investments always involve due diligence, regulatory oversight, and market risks. Be cautious of unsolicited offers that guarantee profits without clear mechanisms or official documentation.
Fraudsters also attempt to deceive job seekers by impersonating Nexus Arb through fake job offers. These scams may use fraudulent websites, email addresses, or text messages to lure individuals into providing sensitive information or making upfront payments for fake hiring processes. Legitimate opportunities will always be communicated through official company channels.
Nexus Arb's legitimate communications will always come from official company email domains. For example: support@nexus-arb.com - always check the domain is correct - nexus-arb.com
While we communicate trade details and account-related information through our official channels, we will never ask clients to make direct payments or share sensitive financial details outside of authorized transaction processes.
If you receive an unexpected investment proposal, financial request, or job offer that seems suspicious, do not engage and report the incident immediately to your account manager.
Common Fraud Tactics
Phishing Emails & Websites
Cybercriminals often send deceptive emails pretending to be banks, investment firms, or well-known companies, attempting to steal personal and financial data.
Social Media Impersonation
Fraudsters may create fake profiles or hijack legitimate accounts to mislead individuals into fraudulent transactions or misinformation.
Investment Scams
Be wary of unsolicited financial offers that require upfront fees or demand direct deposits to unknown accounts. Nexus Arb never asks clients to send personal funds to third-party accounts without proper due diligence. If in doubt always consult with your account manager.
How to Protect Yourself
Verify the sender
If unsure, confirm directly with Nexus Arb through our official contact channels.
Look for red flags
Unexpected investment opportunities, poorly written emails, and requests for confidential data are signs of fraud.
Report suspicious activity
If you receive fraudulent communication claiming to be from Nexus Arb, please forward it to abuse@nexus-arb.com for review. Clients should also notify their dedicated account manager immediately.
