The website falsely associates its physical address with that of Standard Bank and links itself to one of the bank’s subsidiaries.

Standard Bank is warning the public about a fraudulent entity and website that uses the bank’s information in an attempt to legitimise its illegal activities.

It points out that Direct Access Finance is not registered with the National Credit Regulator, and has no legal mandate to advise on or provide financial credit. Standard Bank says it has reported the matter to the relevant regulators, and is pursuing measures for the illegal website to be taken down.
