    Fraud Awareness

    Scammers target people who send money abroad. Here is how to spot them, protect your account and report anything suspicious.

    Fraud team: [phone]Email: [fraud@domain]

    1What we will never do

    We will never:

    • Ask for your password, PIN or one-time code, by phone, email, SMS or chat.
    • Ask you to move money to a "safe account".
    • Ask you to install screen-sharing or remote access apps.
    • Offer special rates or bonuses through WhatsApp, Telegram, Viber or social media.
    • Ask you to pay an "agent" to release a transfer, prize or refund.

    If someone claiming to be us asks for any of these, it is a scam. Hang up and call us on the number on this website.

    2Common scams

    Impersonation

    Someone pretends to be us, your bank, the police or the tax office and says your money is at risk. Sign: pressure to act now.

    Romance

    An online partner you have never met asks for money for travel, medical bills or a visa. Sign: they never meet you.

    Investment

    Promises of guaranteed or very high returns, often crypto or forex. Sign: too good to be true.

    Fake rates and agents

    Social media pages offering better rates if you pay a personal account. Sign: paying a person, not your account.

    Family emergency

    A "relative" on a new number asks for urgent help. Sign: new number and a request for secrecy.

    Prize, job or loan fees

    You must pay first to get a prize, job or loan. Sign: paying to receive money.

    3Before you send

    1. Stop. A real request can wait while you check.
    2. Check. Do you know the person? Have you confirmed it on a number you already trust?
    3. Ask. Talk to someone you trust, or to our support team.

    If we think you may be the victim of a scam, we may pause your transfer and contact you. This is to protect you.

    4Protect your account

    • Use a strong password you don't use anywhere else, and turn on two-step verification.
    • Only log in at our official website: [www.domain].
    • Don't log in through links in messages.
    • Keep your email and phone number up to date.

    5Report fraud

    Think you've been scammed, or someone used your account? Tell us straight away. The sooner you report, the more we can do.

    6If you lose money

    If a payment was made from your account without your permission, EU payment rules may entitle you to a refund. If you were tricked into sending money yourself, contact us immediately and we will explain what we can do. [Compliance to confirm refund wording]

    Terms & Conditions

    The agreement between you and us when you open an account and send money. Please read it before your first transfer.

    Effective: [DD Month YYYY]Governing law: Republic of Lithuania

    1About us

    Services are provided by [Legal entity name], company code [000000000], a [payment institution / electronic money institution] licensed by the Bank of Lithuania, licence number [LP000]. You can check our licence at lb.lt. We serve customers in Slovakia and Slovenia under the EU freedom to provide services [Compliance to confirm passporting notifications].

    2Your account

    • You must be at least 18 and live in Lithuania, Slovakia or Slovenia.
    • You must give true information and keep it up to date.
    • You may only use your account for yourself.
    • We must verify your identity before you send, and may ask for more information at any time.

    3Making a transfer

    Before you confirm, we show the amount you pay, our fee, the exchange rate, the amount your recipient gets and the estimated delivery time. We receive your order when your payment reaches us and our checks are complete.

    You are responsible for entering correct recipient details. If you make a mistake, we will make reasonable efforts to recover the money but cannot guarantee it.

    4Fees and exchange rates

    Our fee and rate are shown before you pay and fixed once you confirm. The rate includes a margin above the reference rate. Your bank or card provider, and some receiving banks or agents, may charge their own fees. [Compliance to confirm fee and currency conversion disclosure under EU Regulation 2021/1230]

    5Delivery

    Delivery depends on the destination, payout method, partner opening hours and our checks. We may delay a transfer for legal checks or to protect you from fraud, and will tell you unless the law prevents us.

    6Cancellations and refunds

    You can cancel free of charge before your transfer is paid out. Once paid out, it can't be cancelled. If we cancel or can't complete a transfer, we refund what you paid, including our fee.

    7When we may refuse or suspend

    We may refuse a transfer, or suspend or close your account, if we suspect fraud, money laundering or misuse, if we can't verify information, or if the law requires it. Where allowed, we will tell you why.

    8Protecting your money

    Money we hold for your transfers is safeguarded under the Lithuanian Law on Payment Institutions, separate from our own funds. It is not covered by deposit insurance.

    9Our responsibility

    If a transfer is not delivered, or is late because of our fault, we will refund you or put things right as the law requires. We are not responsible for losses caused by wrong details you give us, events outside our control, or delays caused by legal checks.

    10Complaints

    Contact us at [complaints@domain]. We reply within 15 business days, or 35 business days in exceptional cases, and will tell you if we need longer.

    If you're not happy with our reply, you can take your complaint to the Bank of Lithuania, which resolves consumer disputes with financial firms free of charge (lb.lt), within one year of complaining to us.

    11Changes and ending this agreement

    We give at least two months' notice of changes to these terms. You can close your account at any time. We may close it with two months' notice, or immediately in the cases in section 7.

    12Governing law

    These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Lithuania. This does not remove any protection you have under the consumer laws of the country where you live.
