    Additional source context
    We recommend caution when dealing with the online entity www.MaxiPayLtd.com. The website is falsely using the details of the registered New Zealand company Maxipay Limited (NZBN: 9429031572064), including its name, company number, and address. The director of Maxipay Limited has confirmed no association with the website. The website is offering managed investment plans but is not registered on the Financial Service Providers Register to do so. We have also received a complaint that MaxiPayLtd.com is unreasonably withholding client funds. MaxiPayLtd.com also appears to be displaying a fake United Kingdom Companies House Certificate of Incorporation document. ENTITY NAME: Maxipay LimitedWEBSITE: www.maxipayltd.comADDRESS: (Alleged) 35 Morningside Drive, Mount Albert, AucklandEMAIL: support@maxipayltd.com

    Read the finding in context

    The recorded category is reproduced above. Read the linked authority’s finding in its own terms. An authorization warning, restriction or other regulatory notice does not by itself establish every allegation about an entity or prove a particular person’s loss.

    Match the record to your experience

    Compare the complete website or profile address, payment destination and communications you used. A similar name is not enough to identify the same operator. Retain original messages, payment references and dates so that any differences remain visible.

    Follow the evidence and payment route

    CryptoDac investigates cryptocurrency fraud, traces digital assets and develops evidence to pursue appropriate lawful recovery routes. For a matter relating to Maxipay Limited – Imposter website, the starting questions are which identity presented the service, how payments were sent, which records support the sequence and which relevant platform or authority may be able to act.

    A useful chronology separates amounts actually sent from displayed balances or advertised returns. Public transaction records can show movement between addresses, while ownership and legal responsibility may require further evidence. Recovery strategy depends on the facts and the actions of the relevant parties.

    Preserve what can support a review

    Keep exact website addresses, dated correspondence, transaction IDs, network details and the original records of payment and withdrawal requests. Describe uncertainty honestly. Do not send seed phrases, private keys, passwords or one-time codes.

    Dates and source scope

    Source dates are labelled separately above. The publication date on this article records its CryptoDac release and is not a claim that CryptoDac published the authority’s warning on its original date. Source records may change; consult the linked authority for its current notice and distinguish its jurisdiction from other countries.
