Warning: Website for 'Foundex LTD' claiming to be a law firm

10 March 2025

A website for 'Foundex LTD' is claiming to be a law firm.

What is the scam?

The SRA has seen a website at 'www.foundexltd.com' which is operating and falsely claiming to be a law firm called 'Foundex LTD'. The website also falsely displays the SRA digital badge.

The website provides telephone numbers of '+44 745 814 8835' and '+32 480 20 5602', an email address of 'info@foundexltd.com' and an address of 'Boulevard Saint-Lazare, Sint-Lazaruslaan, Brussels, Belgium, 1210'.

The SRA does not authorise or regulate a firm of solicitors called 'Foundex LTD'.

Any business or transaction through the website of 'www.foundexltd.com', the telephone numbers of '+44 745 814 8835' and '+32 480 20 5602', the email address of 'info@foundexltd.com' or the address of 'Boulevard Saint-Lazare, Sint-Lazaruslaan, Brussels, Belgium, 1210' is not undertaken by an individual or firm of solicitors authorised and regulated by the SRA.

What should I do?

When a firm's or individual's identity has been copied exactly (or cloned), due diligence is necessary. If you receive correspondence claiming to be from the above firm(s) or individual(s), or information of a similar nature to that described, you should conduct your own due diligence by checking the authenticity of the correspondence by contacting the law firm directly by reliable and established means. You can contact the SRA to find out if individuals or firms are regulated and authorised by the SRA and verify an individual's or firm's practising details. Other verification methods, such as checking public records (e.g. telephone directories and company records) may be required in other circumstances.
