Cybercrime and scams are increasing in volume and sophistication. Investment scams in particular are on the rise. Centuria Bass takes cybercrime very seriously and we do everything within our power to support our investors to protect their investments.
The Australian Government has important resources to help you to spot a scam, including:
Centuria Bass investment opportunities will always be provided with Information Memorandums (IMs) from our team. All correspondence from our Australian business will always be from @centuriabass.com.au, @centuria.com.au or @invest.centuria.com.au and we can always be contacted to verify any product offers at +61 2 8923 8923.
If you suspect you might have been affected by a scam or if you have used a third party website to secure a Centuria Bass investment, you should cease contact and correspondence immediately, and contact us at [email protected] or phone +61 2 8923 8923.
If you suspect you have transferred money to a third party in relation to a scam, you should immediately contact police, and your bank to stop direct debit transactions if you’ve shared any banking details.
If you have provided your personal information to a third party (particularly identity information such as a copy of your driver’s licence or photograph of yourself), then you should also contact IDCARE as soon as possible.
You should also consider alerting major credit bureaus (such as Equifax and Experian) to put a block on your credit profile to stop others from opening accounts and transacting using your personal information.
