Why go offshore when there are onshore companies that operate in the same area - and that are regulated by the FSA?

Selected quotes from the above:

The contact usually comes out of the blue, with most schemes cold-calling investors. But it can also come by email, post, word of mouth or at a seminar or exhibition.

While not all carbon credit trading schemes are a scam, it is often not made clear to investors that trading on Over-The-Counter (OTC) markets requires experience and skill. You may lose money on your investment by not getting a competitive rate when trading a small volume of carbon credits or not being able to sell your credits at all.

Remember if the company promoting or operating the scheme is not authorised by us, you will not have access to the Financial Ombudsman Service or Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) if things go wrong.

If you do feel the need to 'invest' in these areas then stick to onshore comanies that are UK regulated, not offshore ones that do not appear to have any regulation at all.
