ASIC is satisfied that persons based in Australia are likely to suffer detriment as a result of being misled as to the regulatory status of these entities. Australians should avoid dealing with any of these entities until they are appropriately licensed or authorised to operate in Australia.

ASIC is satisfied that it is in the public interest to warn the public about the conduct of these entities.
