Re: Clarification of Unrelated Fraudulent Scheme Using the Name “Global”
Our Group has learned that Taiwanese prosecutors are investigating an alleged illegal fund-raising operation involving a company styling itself as “Global” (also reported as “Australia GLOBAL”) that solicited money through purported investments in foreign-exchange trading, real-estate projects, and Thai cannabis farms, attracting more than NT$110 million from the public.
We issue the following statement to protect investors and preserve our reputation:
1. No Affiliation or Connection
• Our Group has no equity, business, or financial relationship whatsoever with the entity under investigation.
• Any solicitation of funds or investment opportunities claiming partnership with, endorsement by, or use of our Group’s name, trademarks, or staff is unauthorised and fraudulent.
2. Commitment to Lawful and Compliant Operations
• We conduct legitimate global business activities only in jurisdictions where we hold the required licences and approvals, operating under stringent financial, commercial, and market regulations.
• Robust internal controls, independent audits, and comprehensive AML/KYC procedures ensure that every product and service we offer complies with applicable laws and international standards.
• All marketing materials, offering documents, and risk disclosures are reviewed by legal counsel and regulators before publication and are available through our official channels.
3. Investor Guidance
• Investors receiving high-return offers from any entity using the word “Global” should verify the source by contacting competent authorities or our official helpdesk.
• If you encounter suspicious activity or believe you have been approached by impostors, please gather evidence, report immediately to law-enforcement agencies, and notify us so we may assist.
4. Legal Measures
• We will pursue civil and criminal remedies against any party that misappropriates our corporate identity or trademarks to deceive the public.
Our Group’s guiding principle is strict adherence to legal and regulatory requirements. We categorically distance ourselves from the aforementioned fraudulent activities and remain committed to safeguarding the interests of all stakeholders.
