    Whoever they are, they are not registered with the Irish Financial Regulator (http://registers.financialregulator.ie/FirmSearchPage.aspx). Were you cold-called?

    95% that this outfit are looking to scam you out of money.

    Ya i heard of them.

    Stay away!!!!

    I went a little further along the process with them and it sounded very risky.
    When i told them i didn't want to invest they kept hassling me. They were so desperate for my cash but kept saying it made no difference to them if i invested or not. Complete bull!!!

    Save yourself a lot of hassle and stay away from them.

    when you hear guys going on like that "it dosn't make any difference whether or not you invest with us" it makes your ears prick up and still after that that spiff they refuse to get off the phone alarm bells should start to ring they usually follow this up with "there is people lining up to get into this investment scheme" or something like that.

    WELL IF THERE IS GO AND BOTHER THEM AND STOP ANNOYING ME!!!!
