The Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority of Saskatchewan (FCAA) is warning Saskatchewan people of an impersonation scam on social media claiming that Prime Minister Mark Carney is endorsing an online investment platform called XBTDirect. XBTDirect claims to operate a cryptocurrency exchange platform and offers Saskatchewan residents trading opportunities in cryptocurrencies via leverage trading and cryptocurrency pairs. XBTDirect is not registered with the FCAA to trade or sell securities or derivatives in Saskatchewan. The FCAA cautions investors and consumers not to send money to companies that are not registered in Saskatchewan, as they may not be legitimate businesses. If you have invested with XBTDirect, or anyone claiming to be acting on their behalf, contact the FCAA’s Securities Division at 306-787-5936.
