1. The essentials #
Bucardo Zúñiga allocates its own capital. It does not raise, manage or intermediate third-party funds.
We will never:
- offer you the chance to "invest with us", yields, equity, crypto-assets, "slots" or "exclusive opportunities";
- ask you for bank transfers, deposits, payments, fees, "security deposits" or "processing costs";
- ask for bank details, passwords, one-time codes (OTP), photos of your identity document or remote access to your device;
- contact you via WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS, social media or unsolicited calls for any of the above;
- change supplier bank details by email: any change is confirmed through an independent, previously registered channel.
If anyone proposes any of the above using the name of the Holding, its founding partners or any group company, it is a fraud attempt. Do not pay, do not share data, and report it.
