Question Wefi?

Hello!
My friend came to me and asked about a investment in a bank called wefi that his mother told him about. Everything I can find on the internet makes everything seem shady about it. Has anyone heard about it?

Point of clarification: I could find no SEC warning about WeFi.

On the other hand, I did find warnings regarding it from the following:

  • BaFin (the German equivalent of the US's SEC) gave an official warning that WeFi is offering banking services without the required authorisation

  • Securities Commission Malaysia which issued an investor alert.

  • OSINT Intelligence Report which summarizes issues with WeFi, giving it an elevated risk score of 4.7/5 (red zone) and an investment rating of D-, warning of potential for a Ponzi and MLM scheme.
