Bondford Fraud Awareness
At Bondford Markets Ltd, safeguarding our clients and their funds is a top priority. As financial fraud and cybercrime continue to evolve, we are committed to helping you stay informed, alert, and protected.
This page outlines common types of fraud, how we protect your information, and what you can do to stay safe.
1. Common Types of Fraud
Fraudsters may attempt to impersonate legitimate companies like Bondford to trick individuals or businesses into disclosing sensitive information or authorising payments. Be aware of the following tactics:
- Phishing emails or scams – Fraudulent emails that appear to come from Bondford, requesting payments, login credentials, or sensitive business details.
- Fake invoices or payment instructions – Emails or attachments that appear legitimate but redirect funds to fraudulent accounts.
- Impersonation via phone calls – Individuals falsely claiming to represent Bondford to create urgency or pressure around financial decisions.
- Spoofed or fake websites – Domains or webpages that closely resemble Bondford’s brand to collect sensitive data or credentials.
2. How Bondford Protects You
We take fraud prevention seriously and implement multiple layers of protection, including:
- Secure access to our platforms with encrypted communications
- Rigorous onboarding and verification procedures for all clients
- Manual checks on payment instructions, where appropriate
- Ongoing monitoring of suspicious activity
- Dedicated staff trained to detect and respond to fraud attempts
- Collaboration with trusted, regulated financial institutions
We will never:
- Ask for your login credentials or passwords via email or phone
- Request urgent payments without prior relationship or proper verification
- Change account details without secure, pre-agreed communication
3. How You Can Protect Yourself
- Verify payment instructions – Always confirm bank details and payment requests through trusted, known contacts. Never rely solely on email.
- Check email addresses carefully – Fraudsters may use domain names that appear similar to ours.
- Bondford will only ever contact you using email addresses ending in @bondford.com.
- Avoid clicking suspicious links – Do not open unexpected attachments or click on links in unsolicited emails.
- Contact us if unsure – If you receive any communication that seems unusual or suspicious, contact your Bondford representative directly using a verified phone number.
