Apologies if this has been discussed, tried a search and nothing came up.

Just got the following email:

Good Afternoon

Thank you for registering to our Peer to Peer lending platform.

We carry out lots of property refurbishment/conversion projects on it and we fund these projects via private investment with lots of security in place.

I can confirm that we have completed funding on our previous project, Box Works and the conversion is beginning within the next couple of weeks. In light of this, I would like to introduce you to our newest property investment opportunity, a pub conversion into residential flats, over a 12 month term.

Please see the details, videos and pictures of the project on this link -->https://invest.sourced.co/offering/thecrosbyhotel. You will also find all the info regarding the Peer-To-Peer platform on the website.

The returns vary depending on the amount invested:

10% below £25k

12% £25k and over

There are lots of different ways you can invest such as cash, SIPP/SASS pensions, ISA’s etc. We have recently worked with Empowered Pensions to make pension investments smooth and simple.

Happy to schedule in a call and if you would like to chat through the details?

Kind Regards

Dorka Horvath

Director

Sourced is a trading name of Jark-1 Limited and its subsidiaries. Jark-1 Limited is registered in England and Wales. Registration number: 10852300. Registered address: Rutherford House, Warrington Road, Birchwood, Warrington, WA3 6ZH.

Past returns are not necessarily a guide to future returns. Any unrepaid capital is at risk of arrears or default.

I haven't a clue who they are, and most certainly have not registered to their platform. Them not knowing my name kind of confirms this.

Anyone else got this? It's on the email address I use for P2P, so suggests a data leak / borrowed email list?

Could be from almost anywhere - they've not been entirely above board about how they've sourced their contact lists.
On the bright side since I hit unsubscribe a few months ago I've had no further emails from them.....and since they phoned me at home asking for me by name shortly after that and I told them I wasn't interested in unsolicited calls I haven't heard anything else. Which is a good thing because if they had I'd have felt the need to do something about it and kick up a stink given they didn't get any of my details from me (and I happen to know where they did get them) and really lifes too short. Saved me the bother of researching them as a potential platform anyway.

Neither have I had dealings with Rebs. This is not how you get my custom.

Yes, I received their spam earlier this year. Did not sign up with them or give permission. I opted out but started received thier junk emails again. The spamming b******** have been sending junk email ever since. The recent emails I have had do not have an option to opt out. I suggest anyone who receives their spam emails do a GDPR request to find out the source of them obtaining your data and report them to the ICO.

I've already reported them, have heard Zilch back from them. Though if a few more report them maybe ICO may actually do something
maybe ...

Er, no, just stop spamming people (especially me) or preferably just "shut up shop (forever) and go home"
