Accorn Investment Management has been alerted to instances where unauthorised third parties appear to be using the Accorn name, branding and reputation in an attempt to solicit investments from members of the public.

These fraudulent investments offer guaranteed returns or pay outs and require victims to make a lump sum payment to the fraudsters bank account.

We wish to emphasise that these communications and investment offers are not authorised by Accorn.

Members of the public are urged to exercise caution and verify all investment communications directly with Accorn before transferring any funds.

Should you receive any suspicious communication claiming to originate from Accorn, please contact us telephonically on 021 657 8300.

The matter has been referred to the appropriate authorities for investigation.
