As of today, a few customers who decided to use the services of the Spoynt Limited Company in the UK (registered under number 14156599) over the past six months and transferred money for their services have probably become victims of financial fraud. After receiving payments and completing money transfers to the account of the company, the owner and director of Spoynt Limited Arif Akhmedzade stops communicating with customers, does not respond to their messages, and refuses to provide paid services.

The Spoynt Limited Company started its operation of June 2023. The company is registered in London at 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, United Kingdom, WC2H 9JQ. The key profile of the company is registered as “Other information technology service activities.” At the same time, in October 2023, the company received an EMD Agent license, under which it can distribute or redeem electronic money and provide certain payment services on behalf of an institution working with electronic money.

Spoynt Limited and its owner Arif Akhmedzade are suspected of financial fraud in the UK. The official website of the company also states that Spoynt Limited is registered with the UK Financial Conduct Authority under no. FRN 903071 as an EMD Agent with rights to distribute or redeem electronic money (e-money) and provide certain payment services on behalf of an e-money institution, Noveba Limited, registered under no. FRN 900924. Noveba Limited is registered in London at the same address as Spoynt Limited, i.e., 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, United Kingdom, WC2H 9JQ.

The main owner and head of this company are Maris Lasmanis from Estonia and Genadijs Marjevskis from Latvia.

It remains unknown whether Noveba Limited is involved in defrauding Spoynt Limited customers, and it shall be determined by UK law enforcement agencies.

Here’s an interesting fact. Another legal entity registered as Spoynt ÖU was founded in Estonia in 2021 (official website: www.spoynt.com) and works in the field of financial payments and payment solutions. Both Spoynt Limited (London) and Spoynt ÖU (Tallinn, Estonia) have the same management. The CFO at Spoynt is Asif Gasymov from Ukraine. On his pages on social networks, he posts information that he works simultaneously in both of these companies. Previously, he worked for a Ukrainian company that sold fuel and owns a network of gas stations.

The owner and director of Spoynt Limited, Arif Akhmedzade, who is suspected of financial fraud, is a citizen of Ukraine. He has a business in this country but does not conduct any public activities, including having pages on social networks.

In Ukraine, Arif Akhmedzade is the owner and head of several companies, including Point LLC, Moresis LLC, and Moresis Group LLC.

The only mention in the Ukrainian media about Arif Akhmedzade is related to his short-term work at UAPAY (Ukrainian payment service) as Chief Sales Officer in 2021.

There is also information in the Ukrainian media that the Spoynt Company is closely related to the Corefy Payment Management Platform.

The law enforcement agencies of the United Kingdom, Estonia, and Ukraine, which were contacted by defrauded Spoynt Limited customers, will have to find out the role of Arif Akhmedzade and other participants in criminal activity.
