Beware of These “Financial Services Providers”

The FSCA warns the public against Juan Albert Mayer; Umvuzo Lifestyle Creators; AW Fund Management (Pty) Ltd; Dial A Mula Administrators (Pty) Ltd; Hunters Wealth Empowerment (Pty) Ltd; and Umvuzo Management Group (Pty) Ltd.

The Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) warns the public against doing any financial services related business with Juan Albert Mayer (Mayer); Umvuzo Lifestyle Creators; AW Fund Management (Pty) Ltd; Dial A Mula Administrators; Hunters Wealth Empowerment; and Umvuzo Management Group.

It has come to the attention of the FSCA that Mayer and associated entities are soliciting investments from members of the public, promising high returns, and claiming to be associated with Negroni Group (Pty) Ltd, FSP number 46975.

Negroni Group (Pty) Ltd has confirmed that they are not in any way associated with Mayer and those entities linked to him.

It is the FSCA’s view that Mr Mayer and those entities are conducting unregistered financial services.
