For the second time in a week, cryptocurrency exchange Binance has issued a cease-and-desist order to a fake company operating under its name. The crypto exchange took to Twitter to announce that it had issued a notice to UK-based Binance Ltd. Binance clarified that it was not affiliated with Binance LTD and called it “a scam company.”

Binance’s disclaimer came in response to a Reddit Publier that suggested that the exchange “has a utility closet listed as an office in the UK.” The supposed affiliate, Binance Ltd., reportedly operates a registered office in Mildenhall, Suffolk. The government’s company register, Companies House, says Binance Ltd. shares an office location with more than 2,400 organizations.

As of this writing, the specifics surrounding Binance Ltd. are still unknown. However, the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority has previously issued public warnings about the existence of cryptocurrency “clone” businesses. Clone companies involve fraudulent organizations using the details of legitimate companies to persuade their victims.

Outre les pressions réglementaires croissantes, Binance a dû se distancer des prétendues fausses sociétés opérant sous sa marque. Il existe actuellement plusieurs entreprises au Royaume-Uni opérant sous la marque Binance. Binance a récemment émis une ordonnance similaire de cesser et de s'abstenir à une supposée filiale nigériane sollicitant des investisseurs locaux.

Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao took to Twitter to brand the company as a “scammer entity.” The news came as Nigerian regulators claimed Binance had operated illegally in the West African nation and was not registered with the appropriate authorities. Interestingly, the operators of Binance Nigeria Limited allegedly confirmed that they had planned to sell the company to Binance.

Meanwhile, Binance Global hasn’t had the best of times in recent weeks. The company has recently retiré sa présence depuis les Pays-Bas, Chypre et le Canada. En outre, l'échange cryptographique a été poursuivi par la Securities and Exchange Commission des États-Unis pour vente de titres et utilisation abusive des fonds des clients.
