In today’s ever-evolving financial landscape, scammers are finding new ways to target unsuspecting investors. One of the latest schemes involves a fraudulent entity operating under the name Nova-Finance, using the domain nova-finance.cc. This entity is masquerading as a part of the respected Calamatta Cuschieri Group, one of Malta’s well-established financial service providers.
Let’s break down what’s really going on — and how you can protect yourself.
❌ The Deception: A Clone Site Pretending to Be Legitimate
Nova-Finance has been caught replicating the branding, structure, and identity of several licensed companies under the Calamatta Cuschieri Group. On its website, it falsely claims:
-
To be “a recognised fund administrator by the Malta Financial Services Authority”
-
To be “part of the Calamatta Cuschieri Group”
-
To hold a license from Luxembourg’s CSSF
-
To be a member of the Malta Asset Servicing Association (MASA)
All of these claims are completely false.
✅ The Facts: What You Need to Know
Let’s set the record straight:
-
Nova-Finance is NOT registered in Malta.
-
It is NOT authorised to provide financial services in or from Malta.
-
It has no connection to any legitimate Calamatta Cuschieri entity, including:
-
Calamatta Cuschieri Investment Services Limited
-
CC Funds SICAV plc
-
CC Fund Services (Malta) Limited
-
Calamatta Cuschieri Investment Management Limited
-
Even more concerning, when cross-checking with official sources, no registration or licensure could be verified with either the CSSF or MASA.
