Individual Posing to be an FSA Employee

At present an individual, who appears to be using the name Chris Moore, is contacting firms and purporting to be an employee of the FSA. He has been attempting to obtain information on areas such as the compliance structure, saying that the request will be confirmed in writing. He also refers to forthcoming regulatory visits.

The CSA confirm that no individual currently working for the FSA has a name similar to the aforementioned. You should therefore exercise caution if you receive a similar call. Should you receive such a call they would be grateful if you could collect as much information on the caller as possible, contact number etc, and report it to the contact centre on 0845 606 9966
