Investment ads using the image of Richard Branson
Richard Branson is a victim of impersonation: their image appears in investment platform ads with no sign that they authorised it. If you saw an ad, interview or video of Richard Branson recommending an investment, it is almost certainly fake.
We have seen their image in 1 ad for 1 platform in United Kingdom, between October 26, 2026 and October 26, 2026.

No legitimate platform can offer investments without authorisation. Always check your country’s regulator:
Already signed up or paid?
- Do not pay anything else, even if they ask for "taxes" or "fees" to release your money.
- Call your bank today: block your card and request a chargeback or a transfer recall. The sooner, the better your chances.
- Do not install anything they ask for (AnyDesk, TeamViewer…). If you did, uninstall it and change your passwords.
- Report it to the police and your country’s regulator, and keep screenshots, emails and phone numbers.
- Beware of "fund recovery" companies that will contact you promising to get your money back for a fee: they are almost always a second scam.
