Fraudulent Schemes Notice

Point72 is aware of impersonators, fraudulent websites, third-party applications, and instant messaging chat groups (e.g., WhatsApp, WeChat and others) that falsely claim to be affiliated with, or employees of, Point72 and its affiliates. These schemes often misuse the Point72 name and/or trademarks without authorization to deceive and lure individuals into joining fraudulent chat groups, creating trading accounts or downloading malicious websites or third-party applications designed for financial scams.

This notice aims to inform the public about these fraudulent activities and emphasize that Point72 has no association with them. These schemes are illegal and unauthorized.

Point72 is an investment management firm managing private investment funds subject to certain legal requirements and does not offer investment advice to the general public or through social media or messaging apps.

We are committed to taking appropriate action whenever we discover such fraudulent schemes. This includes reporting them to appropriate regulatory authorities and collaborating with law enforcement agencies in an attempt to shut down such scams.

We encourage the public to exercise caution and verify information before engaging with any entity claiming to represent Point72 or its affiliates. If you believe you are a victim of a scam, please contact local law enforcement.  Relevant regulatory authorities maintain lists of suspicious or fraudulent entities that can be consulted for verification.
