The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has recently received inquiries from the public concerning several entities claiming to assist in recovering losses from financial fraud. These entities include Dex Law Firm LLP, Morgan Bell Law Firm LLP, and Watson Liddell Law Firm. The HKMA wants to emphasize that it has no affiliation with these entities and does not collaborate with any local or overseas law firms to reimburse fraud losses to individuals. It is important for the public to be aware that the HKMA will not reach out to individuals regarding personal financial matters.
To address this issue, the HKMA has promptly reported these cases to the Hong Kong Police Force. If individuals suspect that they have fallen victim to fraudulent acts, the HKMA advises them to contact the Commercial and Technology Crime Hotline of the Hong Kong Police Force at 2860 5012 or file a report through the e-Report Centre. By doing so, further action and investigation by the police can be initiated to address the situation and protect potential victims.
