What the regulator published
BaFin (DE) listed de-capitalus.com on 7 October 2026 as a firm that is not authorised to offer financial services. Website given by the regulator: https://de-capitalus.com. The regulator says the people behind this website misuse the identity of a genuine company, which has nothing to do with it.
A regulator puts a firm on its warning list when it offers financial services without the authorisation it needs there. Customers of a firm like this usually cannot use the protections that come with authorised firms, such as the ombudsman or a compensation scheme.
