algebriscapital.com (clone of FCA authorised firm) (updated)

Why this matters

The FCA warning identifies an unauthorised clone firm impersonating Algebris (UK) Limited, a legitimate investment manager. The content is administrative in nature—a standard fraud alert—but carries high urgency due to active scam activity targeting consumers. The warning covers authorisation/licensing violations and consumer protection risks (no FSCS/ombudsman coverage). Firm types marked 'All Firms' because the warning applies broadly to any firm that might be cloned or any firm advising clients on fraud risks.
