Care Social Properties (CSP) purports…
Care Social Properties (CSP) purports to be a UK based company. I was contacted in April 2025 by telephone people claiming to represent Care Social Properties (CSP). I was offered an opportunity to invest in CSP. I was told that CSP is government backed and holds a portfolio of a large number of care home properties in the UK. The money invested is used to continue investment in care homes which is government priority. The return I was promised was 10% over two years. Care Social Properties is registered company at Companies House – the company number is 13038881. The chief director is Angela Field, contact address is PO Box 4385, Cardiff CF14 8LH. The Company has a website: caresocialproperties.com. The company address is Dunbar Business Centre, 5 Sheepscar Court, Leeds, LS7 2BB.
I was told that my investment would be held in an ISA and that I would receive monthly interest payments. Communications were conducted on the telephone and by email. The email mails I received all had the same Care Social Properties logo on them. I asked my IFA to check out the company and she said that the company looked legitimate. I agreed to invest £12,000. I sent a copy of my passport, along with other details which I was told needed to be provided due to anti-fraud legislation. I transferred the money to a UK bank with a UK sort code (23-22-90). I received a bond certificate, signed by Angela Field. In May I received my first interest payment. The following month, I received nothing. I contacted the Company (George Brown and James Bernard were my contact points). I was told that the company was in the process of being taken over by a company based in the US and that all payments had been temporarily suspended. In fact, I was offered the opportunity to make an additional investment in the new company that would double my return. I turned this down and said I wanted my money out. This was agreed and I was told that the takeover would be completed by early August and that I would receive my money by 6th August. I received nothing. I contacted the company again to be told that there had been a hold up and that everything would be concluded by 26th August. Again, I have received nothing but now there is no response to my messages. I have rung the number on the website. This is apparently the Sales Team at Notting Hill Genesis. They know nothing of CSP. I cannot make contact with anybody connected with CSP. I have reported this to Action Fraud. There is no doubt that I have been scammed. I warn anybody who has been contacted by Care Social Properties not to invest. These are criminals.
