EUROPEAN COMPLIANCE OFFICERS, BEWARE MALTA'S NEW WEBSITE SPOOFING DANGERS

Not St. Paul's Conversion, but St. Jude's Prayer Helping Malta  by COSIMO

If you are a compliance officer at a European financial institution with international clients, please be avised that there is a explosion of website spoofing in the Republic of Malta, including well-regarded news sites. Therefore, do NOT rely upon any Maltese websites for information, whether it means conducting due diligence, or looking for negative information of any kind on corporate entities or individuals. 

Frankly, given Malta's new FATF Greylisting status, its High-Risk designation by the United Kingdom, and its total inability to arrest its known money launderers and corrupt Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs), why you would be on boarding ANY new affluent Maltese customer is a real question, but now, with this out of control spoofing, you cannot rely upon even the most authoritative online news websites.
