Announcement / Advisory: Impersonation Alert
Date: 25 August 2023
We have recently become aware of certain individuals impersonating Atlas Asset Management Pte. Ltd. (“Atlas”) making unsolicited contact with and attempting to scam the public.
In these cases, the individuals claimed to be from an entity related to Atlas and directed members of the public to a cryptocurrency trading website https://www.atlasmit.com/#/index purporting to be operated by that entity. Please be advised that the website and their claims are fraudulent.
Please be aware that Atlas does not and will not solicit customers or potential customers through cold marketing and only operates the official website www.atlasam.com.sg. Atlas is a licensed fund management company regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore to carry on the business of fund management only in respect of accredited/institutional investors and does not deal with retail investors. If you are contacted by someone claiming to be from, or affiliated with, Atlas and requesting for your personal information such as bank account details, phone numbers, email addresses etc., it is most likely a fraud or scam.
For the avoidance of doubt, please note the following official channels of communication with Atlas:
Our official website: www.atlasam.com.sg
Our only official corporate phone number: +65 6590 0299.
Our only official contact email address: enquiries@atlasam.com.sg
