Fraudulent Email

_

It has recently come to our attention that certain individuals have been contacting members of the public while falsely claiming to represent GEO Exploration Limited (“GEO”). These individuals often use imitation GEO letterheads, including the company’s logo, in an effort to appear legitimate.

Importantly, over the past few years, many listed companies have reported that their shareholders or members of the public have received unsolicited phone calls or correspondence. These messages often concern employment or business opportunities, share offers, or other investment matters.

GEO Exploration has a rigorous recruitment process in place. Specifically, all job applications must go through an official and structured recruitment procedure. Furthermore, the company does not request personal details from prospective employees via unsolicited emails.

If you receive unsolicited communication offering you employment with or shares in GEO Exploration, we strongly advise you to disregard it and delete the message immediately.

Additionally, the company urges shareholders and the public to take this warning seriously. Although GEO is unable to respond to individual enquiries about fraudulent messages, recipients are welcome to forward any suspicious communications to info@geoexpltd.com.

How to Identify Fraudulent Emails

To help you stay safe, consider the following tips:

Examine the email address carefully. At a glance, fraudulent messages might appear legitimate. However, they often originate from free email providers like Hotmail or Gmail. For example, geoexplorationlimited@hotmail.com is not an official GEO email address.

Check the URLs. Genuine companies use clear and recognisable web addresses, such as www.geoexplorationlimited.com/investors/announcements. In contrast, scam websites often feature overly long URLs or special characters like &^%!*$£”.

Assess the language and tone. If the email doesn’t sound professional or contains vague or improbable statements (e.g., “our database was corrupted, please re-send your details”), it is likely a scam.

Watch for spelling and grammar errors. Scam emails are frequently translated electronically, resulting in awkward wording and obvious mistakes.

Important Disclaimer

While we strive to protect our stakeholders, GEO Exploration accepts no liability for any loss or harm resulting from fraudulent communications. Please remain vigilant and exercise caution when handling unsolicited messages.
