  • Case file: Diamond Futurity Fund/DFF (Ireland) Limited (clone of FCA authorised fund)

    If you searched for Diamond Futurity Fund/DFF (Ireland) Limited (clone of FCA authorised fund) you likely want a straight answer about whether it is safe. Based on the evidence our analysts have gathered, Diamond Futurity Fund/DFF (Ireland) Limited (clone of FCA authorised fund) is a platform to avoid — and if you have already deposited, this page explains what to do next.

    The concern in brief

    Diamond Futurity Fund/DFF (Ireland) Limited (clone of FCA authorised fund) has been flagged as a fake broker/platform by IOSCO I-SCAN (United Kingdom – Financial Conduct Authority). reported 2021-08-25. Jurisdiction: United Kingdom. It appears on an official regulator or fraud-warning list, which is a strong indicator of a scam operation. Treat any contact from this entity with caution. Reference: https://www.iosco.org/i-scan/

    Warning signs to recognise

    • The brand name, address, or regulatory claims do not match any official register, and reviews describe the same withdrawal problems.
    • A dashboard shows fast, unrealistic profits to encourage larger and larger deposits, while the underlying funds are never actually invested.
    • Support goes quiet, contact numbers stop working, or the website disappears once a withdrawal is requested.
    • New deposits are requested through crypto, wire, or gift cards — channels that are hard to reverse once funds leave your account.

    If you have already deposited

    Acting quickly matters. The sooner a case is opened, the more options exist for tracing funds and engaging the right institutions. Stop any further payments immediately — additional “release” or “tax” fees are part of the same scheme and will not free your balance.

    Gather everything you can: transaction records, wallet addresses, deposit receipts, and any messages with the platform’s representatives. This evidence is what makes a recovery effort actionable, and it is the first thing our team reviews.
