Official Communications Notice

Arkstons Group: Official Communications, Reviews & Corporate Identity Notice

Arkstons Group communicates only through its official websites and email addresses. We have become aware of third parties fraudulently adopting names, domains, office addresses and other identifying details that are identical or confusingly similar to ours — or to those of other legitimate businesses — in order to impersonate Arkstons Group, represent themselves as acting on our behalf, and mislead recipients. Use this page to verify that any website, email, message, social media profile or other communication claiming to represent Arkstons Group or any of its affiliated group entities is genuine.

Official Arkstons websites and domains

These are the only domains operated by Arkstons Group and its affiliates.

Any other website or domain — including lookalike or misspelled variations, added or removed letters, additional hyphens or dots, alternative domain extensions (such as .net, .org, .info, .biz, .io, .group, .llc or any country extension), subdomains registered by third parties, and any domain incorporating "Arkstons", "Oakcapita", "Midmergers", "Oakcapitax" or "Arkluxia" in any form — is not authorised by us and is never authorised by us. No such domain has any connection with, licence from, or authority to act for Arkstons Group or any of its affiliated entities. Do not rely on, respond to, contract with or send funds to any such domain unless its authenticity has been expressly confirmed by us in writing through one of the official domains listed above.

This also applies to any website or domain using generic, descriptive or industry terms — such as "advisory", "capital", "ventures", "partners", "group", "investments", "holdings", "M&A" or "research" — whether alone or combined with our names. We have no connection with any such website, and we communicate only through the domains listed on this page.

Official Arkstons email addresses

Our people write only from addresses in the form name@ one of the domains listed above.

@arkstons.co.uk@arkstons.com@arkstons.vc@oakcapita.com@oakcapitax.com@midmergers.com@arkluxia.com

We never use generic or third-party mail services (such as Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo, Hotmail, Proton or similar) or any other domain for business correspondence. Messages from such addresses do not come from Arkstons Group, even if they carry our name, logo, signature block or office address.

Our group office addresses

Our published offices are the only addresses from which we operate:

United Kingdom

27, Old Gloucester Street, London

Bahrain

9th Floor, Bldg 15, Block 338, Manama

India

Suite 214, No. 6/858-M, Valamkottil Towers, Kakkanad, Kochi - 682021

Any third party presenting these addresses as their own place of business, registering a company or trading from them using, in conjunction with our own brand name, marks, registration number or corporate identity, is unauthorised and wholly unconnected with Arkstons Group. We have no association with, and accept no responsibility for, any person or entity doing so.

Payments and invoices

We never request payments, deposits, advance fees or transfers through unofficial domains, personal bank accounts, cryptocurrency wallets, or messaging applications. Payment instructions are issued only on an Arkstons invoice from one of our official email domains and, if you have any doubt, should be confirmed by contacting us on the details published on our official websites before any funds are sent.

No liability for unauthorised communications

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Arkstons Group and its affiliated entities, directors, officers, employees and agents accept no responsibility or liability of any kind — whether in contract, tort (including negligence), misrepresentation, statute or otherwise — for any website, domain, email, invoice, payment instruction, document, contract, social media account, messaging profile, advertisement or other communication originating from, or purporting to originate from, any unofficial or unauthorised source, and we do not accept any responsibility for any loss or damage whatsoever arising from it. This exclusion covers all direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special and punitive loss, including loss of funds, deposits, fees, profits, business, opportunity, data or goodwill, however caused, and applies whether or not we have been notified of the impersonation or of the possibility of such loss.

No act, omission, delay or failure by us to identify, report, pursue or take action against any impersonation creates any duty of care, assumption of responsibility or liability on our part. Any dealings you enter into with an unauthorised party are entirely at your own risk, and you are solely responsible for verifying the authenticity of any communication through the official domains and contact details published on this page before responding, contracting or transferring any funds.

Nothing in this notice excludes or limits liability to the extent it cannot lawfully be excluded. Arkstons Group reserves all rights and remedies in respect of the misuse of its names, marks, domains, addresses and corporate identity.

Group legal entities and jurisdictions

Arkstons Group comprises a number of independently constituted legal entities operating across multiple jurisdictions:

Legal entity nameJurisdictionRegistration number
Arkstons Advisory W.L.L.Kingdom of BahrainCommercial Registration No. 98815-01
Arkstons Investments LimitedEngland and WalesCompany No. 11015850
Arkstons Capital LimitedEngland and WalesCompany No. 11848981
Oakcapita Advisory LLPIndiaLLPIN AAF-2415
Arkstons Global Ventures LPDelaware, United StatesRegistration Number: 3325824 — venture capital fund vehicle

These are separate legal entities and are collectively referred to as the Arkstons Group for branding and business purposes. The Group operates through a number of recognised online domains, including arkstons.co.uk, arkstons.com, arkstons.vc and oakcapita.com. Because these entities operate collectively as the Arkstons Group, you may receive genuine communications relating to any Group entity, service, investment activity or business function from any of our official domains or websites — but never from any third-party domain.

Any communication claiming to represent Arkstons Group or any of its affiliated entities that originates from a domain other than these recognised Group domains should be independently verified before any reliance is placed upon it. The use of the Arkstons name, branding, employee identity or other Group information by an unrelated third party does not constitute an authorised communication, and recipients should exercise particular caution before making payments, providing confidential information, signing documents or taking investment or other financial action in response to an unverified communication.

Fraudulent login portals and subdomains

Operators of the unauthorised domains above also run fake “client cabinet”, “trading desk” and “CFD trading platform” subdomains, usually sent directly by email or messaging app, to persuade victims to create accounts and deposit funds.

Group structure & legitimate entity notice

Arkstons Capital Limited (England and Wales, Company No. 11848981) is a legitimate UK legal entity operating strictly as an integral part of Arkstons Group. These fraudulent platforms have unlawfully co-opted its name, registration number and London office address, mis-stating and misrepresenting our group entity to fabricate an impression of independence or legitimacy.

Official statement of non-affiliation

  • None of the unauthorised domains or websites listed above is owned, operated, sponsored, licensed, authorised or endorsed by Arkstons Group or any of its constituent legal entities, affiliates, officers or representatives across any jurisdiction.
  • These unauthorised platforms have unlawfully co-opted Arkstons Group corporate credentials, entity details and addresses to mislead the public and manufacture a false impression of legitimacy.
  • We do not conduct business, solicit investments, execute contracts, issue documents or collect funds through any of these platforms or any email address associated with them.
  • We have reported these domains to the relevant domain registrars, hosting providers and authorities, and reserve all rights and remedies.

Warning: sponsored articles, fake news coverage & unauthorised subdomains

  • Fabricated and sponsored articles. Unauthorised platforms frequently commission paid press releases, sponsored news write-ups or syndicated blog posts to fabricate an appearance of public legitimacy. Any online article, publication or media release that promotes, links to or references the unauthorised domains listed in this section — or any variant of them — is fraudulent, unverified and entirely unconnected with Arkstons Group.
  • Unauthorised subdomains and portals. Any subdomain, member login, client portal, investment dashboard or trading platform hosted under, or linked to, the unauthorised domains identified above is entirely illegitimate. We operate no client dashboards or fund-collection portals through any such infrastructure.
  • Indirect promotion and deceptive reviews. The appearance of an online article, directory listing or positive review promoting these unauthorised platforms is often purchased or orchestrated by the operators themselves. Third-party promotional content is not proof of authenticity and does not constitute endorsement by Arkstons Group.

If you have been contacted: cease all contact immediately, do not send funds, payments or identity documents, and report it to contact@arkstons.co.uk or reach us via WhatsApp, text, or call on +44 7588876483.

This list covers impersonations we are currently aware of. It is not exhaustive — any domain other than those listed on this page is never authorised by us.

Arkstons Group is a boutique advisory and investment research practice operating through independently constituted legal entities in the Kingdom of Bahrain, England and Wales, India and the United States. Each entity, its jurisdiction and its official registration number is listed on this page and can be checked against the relevant public company register.

  • Genuine websites: only the domains listed above. Everything else — including misspellings, extra hyphens and other extensions — is never authorised by us.
  • Genuine emails: only name@ one of those domains. Never a Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo, Hotmail or Proton address.
  • Individual impersonation: fraudsters may pose as a director, partner or employee using a copied name, signature or LinkedIn profile. The decisive check is the email domain, not the person's name.
  • Reviews, ratings and profiles: we do not operate, sponsor or solicit reviews on third-party sites. Anything published under our name outside our official domains may relate to an impersonator, not to us.
  • Payments: we never request advance fees, deposits or transfers to personal accounts, crypto wallets or via messaging apps.

Suspect an impersonation? Report it to contact@arkstons.co.uk.

Yes. Arkstons Group is a boutique advisory and investment research practice operating through independently constituted legal entities in the Kingdom of Bahrain, England and Wales, India and Delaware (United States). Each entity, its jurisdiction and its official registration number is published in the table on this page, and can be checked against the relevant public company register. Any person, website or profile presenting itself as Arkstons outside the official domains listed on this page is not connected with us.

We do not operate, sponsor or solicit reviews on third-party review sites, directories or social platforms, and we have no control over what appears there. Third parties have registered lookalike domains and company names in order to impersonate us, so reviews, ratings, testimonials or complaints published under our name may relate to an entity that is not us. Verify the entity's registration number and domain against the details on this page before relying on any review.

Arkstons Group does not operate a YouTube channel and does not publish, sponsor or pay for video reviews, personal reviews, testimonials, ratings or endorsements on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, Telegram or any other platform. Any video, channel, review or personal account presented as Arkstons — including material offering investments, jobs, returns, signals or paid services — is not authorised by us unless it links directly to one of our official domains: arkstons.co.uk, arkstons.com, arkstons.vc, oakcapita.com, oakcapitax.com, midmergers.com, arkluxia.com. If you have seen such content, please report it to us at contact@arkstons.co.uk before acting on it.

Not necessarily. Personal reviews, first-hand accounts and testimonials published on video platforms, forums, review sites or social media are frequently created either by impersonators trying to make a fraudulent operation look credible, or by people who were deceived by those impersonators and believe they dealt with us. Before relying on any such account, check the exact domain, legal entity name and company registration number it refers to against the official details published on this page.

Check the full sender address, not the display name. Genuine Arkstons correspondence comes only from an address at one of our official domains: arkstons.co.uk, arkstons.com, arkstons.vc, oakcapita.com, oakcapitax.com, midmergers.com, arkluxia.com. We never use generic mail services such as Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo, Hotmail or Proton for business correspondence. If the address, domain spelling or extension differs in any way, the message is not from us.

Arkstons Group and its affiliates operate only these domains: arkstons.co.uk, arkstons.com, arkstons.vc, oakcapita.com, oakcapitax.com, midmergers.com, arkluxia.com. Any other website or domain — including misspellings, added hyphens, alternative extensions such as .net, .org or .io, and domains built from generic terms such as advisory, capital, ventures or partners — is never authorised by us and has no connection with the Group.

Yes. Fraudsters frequently impersonate real people by copying or closely matching display names, email signatures, job titles, LinkedIn profiles and even profile pictures. They may claim to be a director, partner, analyst or employee of Arkstons Group. A convincing name or signature does not make a message genuine. The only reliable check is the sender's full email address and domain. If it is not an address at one of our official domains listed on this page, the message is not from us, even if it appears to come from someone you recognise.

Look at the full sender address, not just the display name. Check for misspellings, extra characters, added hyphens, or different extensions. Hover over any links without clicking to see the true destination. Compare the domain against the official list on this page. Arkstons Group never uses generic or third-party mail services such as Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo, Hotmail or Proton for business correspondence. If the domain does not match exactly, the email is not from us.

Be cautious. Official Arkstons outreach is linked to our official websites, email domains and the phone number published on this page. If the profile or message asks for money, personal information, passwords, urgent action, or asks you to move the conversation to an unrelated app or personal email, it is not from us. Report the profile or message to the platform and forward the details to us at the reporting email on this page.

We do not recruit through WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal or social media messages, and we never ask candidates for a registration, training, visa, equipment or placement fee. All genuine roles are handled by named colleagues writing from an official Arkstons domain, with a formal interview and a written offer.

No. We never request payments, deposits, advance fees or transfers through unofficial domains, personal bank accounts, cryptocurrency wallets or messaging applications. Payment instructions are issued only on an Arkstons invoice from one of our official email domains, and should be confirmed with us before any funds are sent.

Not necessarily. Any third party presenting our published addresses as their own place of business, registering a company at them, or trading from them in conjunction with our brand name, marks, registration numbers or corporate identity, is unauthorised and wholly unconnected with Arkstons Group.

Do not reply, click any links or send any funds. Forward the message, including the full sender address and, where possible, the original message headers, to contact@arkstons.co.uk, or reach us via WhatsApp, text, or call on +44 7588876483.

Arkstons Group does not maintain, claim or manage a Trustpilot profile, and we do not operate or solicit listings on Trustpilot, Google Reviews, Glassdoor, Sitejabber, Scamadviser or any similar review or rating platform. Any Trustpilot page, review, star rating or score published under the Arkstons name is not operated by us and may relate to an impersonator using a lookalike domain or company name. The only authoritative source of information about Arkstons Group is this page and our official domains.

Arkstons in the United Kingdom operates through Arkstons Investments Limited (England and Wales, Company No. 11015850) and Arkstons Capital Limited (England and Wales, Company No. 11848981), with a London office address published on this page. Both are registered at Companies House and can be checked there. Our only official UK website is arkstons.co.uk. Any other UK company, website or office claiming to be Arkstons is not connected with us.

Yes. Arkstons Capital Limited is an Arkstons Group entity registered in England and Wales under Company No. 11848981. It communicates only through our official domains and email addresses listed on this page. Any firm trading as “Arkstons Capital” from a different domain, registration number or address — including entities using the word “capital” alongside our name — is never authorised by us and has no connection with the Group.

No. Every website listed in our corporate identity theft and credentials misuse alert (arkstoncapital.cfd, arkstons-capital.com, arkstons-capitallimited.com, arkstons-capital.ltd and arkstons-capitalgroup.com) is unauthorised. None is owned, operated, sponsored, licensed, authorised or endorsed by Arkstons Group or any of its constituent legal entities, affiliates, officers or representatives in any jurisdiction. Each has unlawfully misappropriated our group company's registered name, our Companies House registration number 11848981 or our London office address in order to appear legitimate. We do not conduct business, solicit investments, issue documents or collect funds through these websites or any email address associated with them. If you have been contacted from any of them, cease all contact, send no funds or identity documents, and report it to contact@arkstons.co.uk, or reach us via WhatsApp, text, or call on +44 7588876483.

No. Arkstons Group is an institutional advisory and investment research practice. We do not operate any retail trading platform, brokerage, CFD platform, forex exchange, cryptocurrency scheme or automated trading software, and we never offer retail trading accounts, client dashboard logins, guaranteed trading yields or wallet deposit addresses. Any platform, broker, app or website using a .cfd extension, or claiming to offer trading accounts, crypto mining or CFD investments under the Arkstons name, is a fraudulent operation engaged in corporate identity theft. If you have deposited funds, do not send anything further, do not share KYC or identity documents, contact your bank immediately, and report it to contact@arkstons.co.uk and to your local financial regulator or law enforcement (in the United Kingdom, Action Fraud).

Arkstons Group is a long-established institutional advisory and investment research practice operating through registered entities in multiple jurisdictions, including Arkstons Capital Limited (Companies House No. 11848981), Arkstons Investments Limited (Companies House No. 11015850) and Arkstons Advisory W.L.L. (Bahrain CR No. 98815-01). These are legitimate companies whose names have been misused. None of them, nor any of their directors, officers or shareholders, has ever been involved in the unauthorised websites listed on this page, their login portals, or any unlawful activity. Reviews and complaints about those websites may be genuine accounts from people who dealt with them, but they concern only those websites and their operators. Reviews, including Google reviews, that imply the legitimate company or its directors and shareholders took part are mistaken. Operators of the unauthorised websites engaged in corporate identity theft are known to use their own media networks, paid press releases, sponsored articles, coordinated accounts and review-site entries to attack and discredit the legitimate Arkstons Group — frequently labelling the genuine firm a "scam" or inverting the facts in order to deflect scrutiny from their own illicit platforms. The same coordinated content also targets the firm's work and people: posts or articles belittling Arkstons' research, advisory deliverables, employees, analysts or interns form part of the same adversarial activity. Arkstons delivers institutional research and advisory work exclusively to corporate and institutional clients under direct engagement contracts and does not publish client deliverables publicly, so such claims carry no verification weight. In addition, people who have been deceived by these impersonators sometimes publish complaints under the Arkstons name believing they had dealt with us. Online complaints, low ratings and negative reviews published under our name relate to these unauthorised operators and not to the legitimate Arkstons Group. Our registration numbers and registered addresses can be independently confirmed on the official public company registers, and the only authoritative sources are this page, our official domains and our official LinkedIn page. If you encounter such content, please report it to contact@arkstons.co.uk, or reach us via WhatsApp, text, or call on +44 7588876483.

No. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Arkstons Group and its affiliated entities accept no responsibility or liability for any website, email, invoice, payment instruction, document or profile originating from, or purporting to originate from, any unofficial or unauthorised source.

Arkstons UK, Arkstons Trustpilot, Arkstons YouTube and Arkstons Capital verification

If you are checking Arkstons Group before responding to an email, signing a document or transferring funds, the verifiable facts are on this page: our registered legal entities and registration numbers, the only domains and email addresses we use, and how to tell a genuine Arkstons communication from an impersonator trading on our name. This applies equally to any Arkstons UK search, Trustpilot listing, YouTube video, review, rating or communication referring to Arkstons Capital.

How to verify Arkstons Group in three checks

  1. Check the domain. Only arkstons.co.uk, arkstons.com, arkstons.vc, oakcapita.com, oakcapitax.com, midmergers.com, arkluxia.com are operated by the Group. Misspellings, added or removed letters, extra hyphens and alternative extensions such as .net, .org or .io are never ours.
  2. Check the full email address — not the display name. Genuine correspondence is always name@ one of those domains. We never use generic mail services such as Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo, Hotmail or Proton for business correspondence.
  3. Check the entity and registration number on any contract, invoice or engagement letter against the Group legal entities table above, and against the relevant public register.

About reviews published under the Arkstons name

We do not operate, sponsor, solicit, commission or pay for reviews on third-party review sites, directories, forums or social platforms, and we have no control over content published on those platforms.

Third parties have repeatedly used the Arkstons name, lookalike domains, similar company names and, in some cases, our publicly available company and office details to present themselves as Arkstons or as businesses affiliated with us. This has created a significant risk of mistaken identity across third-party websites.

As a result, reviews, ratings, testimonials, complaints and "scam" reports published under the Arkstons name may relate to an entirely unrelated entity or to activities carried out by individuals impersonating Arkstons. We are aware that such material can arise from two very different sources: individuals deliberately impersonating Arkstons may create reviews or testimonials to make fraudulent operations appear legitimate, while people who have been deceived by those impersonators may subsequently publish genuine complaints believing that they are reporting their experience with Arkstons.

Accordingly, the presence of a positive or negative review under the Arkstons name does not, by itself, establish any connection with Arkstons Group or any of its companies. In particular, a complaint describing an alleged transaction, investment, solicitation, communication or website should not be attributed to us unless the underlying entity, domain and contact details can be independently verified against our official information.

Before relying on any third-party review, rating or complaint, please verify the exact domain, legal entity, company number and contact details to which it relates. If these do not correspond with our official information, the material should not be assumed to concern Arkstons.

Equally, any review, endorsement, testimonial or other statement presented as having been issued or approved by Arkstons on a website outside our official domains has not been authorised by Arkstons Group.

If you believe you have dealt with an entity presenting itself as Arkstons and are unsure whether it is genuinely connected with us, please contact us directly through our official website before taking any further action.
