What is the Kingspoint IC Scam?

Kingspoint IC, also known as “Kings Point International Company (Switzerland) AG”, operates an investment platform that shows all the hallmarks of being fraudulent. The website domain was only created in December 2024, and multiple online reports are suggesting it may be part of an investment scam operation.

On 13 May 2025, the International Organization of Securities Commissions and the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority issued an alert about Kings Point International Company (Switzerland) AG. They confirmed it is not entered on the Swiss commercial register: View the official warning.

We have been contacted by potential victims of Kingspoint IC who report devastating financial losses after investing through the platform.

    Thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately, we are only able to assist UK residents with APP fraud claims. We recommend contacting a legal adviser in your country of residence.

    Thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately, we are unable to assist with cases where no money was transferred via a UK bank account or digital money transfer service. If you paid directly through a crypto platform or non-bank service, this falls outside the scope of APP fraud claims.

    Thank you for your enquiry. Due to the costs involved in pursuing APP fraud claims, we are only able to assist with losses of £8,000 or more. For losses of less than £8,000, your local Citizens Advice Bureau or Action Fraud may be able to guide you.

    Thank you for your enquiry. APP fraud cases older than six years typically fall outside the time limits for a potential claim, so we are unable to assist on this occasion.

    We’re sorry we cannot help on this occasion, but we hope the information below is useful for your next steps:

    • Report the matter to Action Fraud
    • Contact your bank if you haven’t already done so
    • Seek free guidance from Citizens Advice or the Financial Ombudsman Service where appropriate

    We wish you the very best moving forward.

    “I saw an advert for Kingspoint and decided to try it with a small amount at first. They made it seem so easy to get good returns, and I kept being encouraged to invest more. In total, I lost £30,000. When I tried to withdraw, they demanded more payments and I couldn’t get any of my money back. ”

    Legal Options After a Kingspoint IC Scam

    Kingspoint IC scam recovery involves navigating multiple legal jurisdictions:

    UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA): Primary regulatory body for UK investors

    • Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA): Relevant due to the scammer’s false Swiss claims
    • Cross-Border Considerations: International recovery often involves coordination with financial intelligence units
    • Banking Protocols: Utilising authorised Authorised Push Payment (APP) regulations where applicable
    • Asset Recovery Options: Civil legal pathways are considered depending on case specifics
    • Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) – a free, independent body that checks whether your Bank treated you fairly to challenge any Bank refusal or partial funds.

    Our legal team has experience working within these frameworks to maximise recovery chances.

    You don’t need a solicitor to ask for a refund or go to FOS — but many clients choose legal support when:

    • Their claim was unfairly rejected or reduced.
    • They want expert help building a stronger case.
    • They’re overwhelmed and prefer not to deal with the Bank or paperwork alone.

    Kingspoint IC - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

    How do I know if I've been scammed by Kingspoint IC?

    You may have been scammed if you’ve experienced any of the following:

    • Requests for unusual payments: e.g., wire transfer, cryptocurrency, prepaid cards, or other non-traditional payment methods.
    • Too good to be true opportunities: promises of unrealistically high returns, guaranteed profits, or the chance to invest early in a “special cryptocurrency”. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.
    • Refusal to let you withdraw funds: Many victims report they can’t access their money, and Kingspoint IC advisers become unresponsive.

    Is recovery from Kingspoint IC possible?

    Whilst recovering money lost to the scam can be difficult, acting quickly improves your chances.

    • Report the scam immediately to Action Fraud.
    • If you paid by bank transfer or credit card, contact your Bank to reverse the transaction.
    • Avoid “recovery services” that charge upfront fees; they are often scams themselves.
    • The sooner you act, the better your chances of recovery.

    What documentation do I need for Kingspoint IC recovery?

    Key documents that can support your claim include:

    • Bank statements (both from before the scam and up to the initial payment).
    • Cryptocurrency exchange statements.
    • Any communications with the scammer (emails, texts, screenshots).
    • Trading or transaction history and proof of purchase.

    What to do if I was scammed by Kingspoint IC?

    • Immediately stop all payments and report to your Bank.
    • File a report with Action Fraud and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
    • Collect all communications and evidence (emails, texts, payment receipts, names and any written communication).
    • Avoid further contact with the scammers.
    • Report the fraud to any platform or site where it occurred.

    Are there any upfront fees for Kingspoint IC recovery services?

    Be extremely cautious of recovery room scams. Legitimate recovery companies do not charge upfront fees and will not make contact with you out of the blue.

    • Always research the company approaching thoroughly—check credentials (e.g., SRA Register for solicitors)
    • Look for independent reviews, and verify contact details.
    • Never share personal or financial information.
    • Never pay upfront fees.
    • Be cautious of anyone guaranteeing success or pressuring you to act fast.

    When in doubt, consult a trusted legal professional before responding.
