- 1. Gatwick AG About: A Company Shut Down by UK Courts Still Sells Offshore Services Online
- 3. Gatwick AG was dissolved by British authorities in 2023. Its website remains active. And former clients say they’ve been misled and defrauded. In a world where global finance often moves faster than regulators can catch up, a UK-dissolved company appears to still be doing business—online, overseas, and under scrutiny. Gatwick AG, a company that once operated from London offering offshore company formation and remote bank account services, was officially wound up by the UK High Court of Justice in early 2023. The court order, which declared the business in breach of British corporate law, should have marked the end of operations. It didn’t.
- 4. More than a year later, the website GatwickLaw.com is live. New clients are still being solicited. And multiple individuals across three continents now allege that Gatwick AG is engaged in a sophisticated offshore banking fraud scheme— one that has cost them thousands of dollars and, in some cases, their trust in the global financial system. “I Thought I Was Working With a Legal Advisory Firm” “It started with a simple email,” said one individual, who asked to be identified only as Alex due to ongoing legal proceedings. “A man named Anthony introduced himself as the Head of Partnerships at Gatwick AG. He said they could help us open a corporate bank account in Europe within two weeks.”
- 5. Anthony, using an official Gatwick AG email signature and referencing an associate named Julia, offered a comprehensive package: legal entity setup, full compliance review, and account opening. The cost? €18,000 up front. Alex paid. The service never materialized. “I followed up weekly. Then monthly. Eventually, Anthony stopped replying altogether,” Alex said. “It wasn’t until I searched for ‘Gatwick AG legal troubles’ that I found out the company had been shut down a year earlier.”
- 6. A Paper Trail of Promises, And a Court Order Companies House, the UK’s business registry, confirms that Gatwick AG Ltd was dissolved on February 23, 2023 following a High Court winding-up order. Yet, the domain name, client onboarding documents, and LinkedIn profiles of key figures remain active. Among them is Edward, believed to be the founder of Gatwick AG. He appears in promotional materials as the firm’s strategic lead, offering expertise in “niche financial sectors” like cryptocurrency, iGaming, and global asset protection. Online, Edward’s name is frequently searched alongside the phrase “Is Gatwick AG a scam?” Also visible is Anthony—the man who initially contacted Alex—whose title is listed in email correspondence as “Head of Partnerships.” Former clients say Anthony’s role is to facilitate payments and, later, shield the company with vague legal explanations when services are delayed or fail to materialize.
- 7. A License Number With No Verification On its website, Gatwick AG claims to hold an operating license in the United Arab Emirates, citing registration number 47008080. However, regulatory authorities contacted by The Times could not verify the license as active or tied to financial services. “It’s not uncommon for offshore fraud operations to list unverifiable license numbers as a tactic to appear legitimate,” said Daniel Khoury, a London-based financial crime analyst. “What’s unusual in this case is the continued marketing after a winding-up order.”
- 8. A Pattern Across Forums and Platforms On online communities such as OffshoreCorpTalk and Reddit, discussions about “Gatwick AG reviews” and “Gatwick Advisory Group fraud” are becoming more frequent. Users report paying for services like: • Swiss or UAE-based bank account openings • Offshore company incorporation in Latvia, Estonia, or Dubai • Legal documentation for cryptocurrency compliance All cite similar outcomes: once the payment is made, delivery slows, questions go unanswered, and attempts to recover funds are met with silence or legal-sounding emails.
- 9. The Global Whack-a-Mole of Financial Enforcement Why hasn’t Gatwick AG been stopped? “Cross-border advisory fraud is notoriously hard to shut down,” said Emma Santos, a former investigator with the UK’s Serious Fraud Office. “They dissolve one entity in the UK, move the operation online, and relaunch from a PO box in another jurisdiction.” Despite being formally dissolved, Gatwick AG continues to market its services under the guise of legitimacy, leveraging web presence, PDF pitch decks, and digital signatures. And until regulators in the UAE, Switzerland, or other jurisdictions take action, the cycle may continue.
- 10. What You Can Do If you believe you’ve been contacted by Gatwick AG, or if you’ve already paid for services that haven’t been delivered, here’s what experts recommend: • File a complaint with Action Fraud UK and your local financial enforcement agency • Report misleading advertising to Google and domain registrars • Consult an international legal expert if significant funds were lost • Warn others through reviews and content platforms with terms like “Gatwick AG scam” and “Gatwick AG fraud report”
- 11. Final Note: As international markets open wider and digital services promise seamless financial access, companies like Gatwick AG remind us of a harder truth: that legitimacy cannot be measured by website design or LinkedIn presence alone. In an era of globalized risk, due diligence isn’t optional—it’s essential
