Fraud Protection
Protect your company from unauthorised changes and identity misuse.
Form My Company’s Fraud Protection service helps safeguard your business against fraudulent filings and unauthorised activity at Companies House.
With company fraud on the rise, proactive protection is essential—especially for directors, PSCs, and overseas-owned UK companies.
What Is Company Fraud Protection?
Company fraud protection is a set of preventative measures designed to stop third parties from:
Appointing or removing directors without consent
Changing your registered office address
Altering PSC or shareholder details
Filing documents using stolen identities
Hijacking your company for criminal activity
Fraudulent filings can cause serious financial, legal, and reputational damage if not detected early.
Why Fraud Protection Matters
Without protection in place, Companies House filings can be submitted electronically by anyone with basic company details.
Fraud protection helps you:
Reduce the risk of identity theft
Prevent unauthorised statutory filings
Protect your company’s public record
Maintain trust with banks and partners
Avoid costly disputes and investigations
What Our Fraud Protection Service Includes
Our Fraud Protection service includes:
Review of your company’s current risk exposure
Secure protection measures against unauthorised filings
Monitoring and alerts for suspicious activity (where applicable)
Guidance on director and PSC identity safeguards
Support if suspicious or fraudulent activity is identified

UK private limited companies (Ltd)
Overseas-owned UK companies
