Warning: Correspondence misusing the name of Cordelia Fiona Natalie Sanger

31 March 2026

Correspondence has been sent misusing the name of Cordelia Fiona Natalie Sanger in relation to the recovery of lost trading funds.

What is the scam?

The SRA has been informed that members of the public have received correspondence falsely claiming to be from a genuine solicitor (details below). The emails state that the sender can assist with the recovery of alleged lost trading funds.

The correspondence offers the recipient a proposal to make a 'legal claim', quoting either a '5%' or '8%' fee payable on successful recovery. The emails also request personal information and evidence and provide false assurances about compliance with GDPR and the Solicitors Regulation Authority's Code of Conduct. Recipients are told to respond within seven days. The emails were sent from the email address cordelia.s@consultsolicitor.com.

The SRA has also seen a further email sent from cordelia.danjon@solicitor-law.org, using the name 'Cordelia Danjon' and purporting to be a solicitor specialising in financial claims. The email signature includes the bogus email address of 'info@solicitors-regulation.org' and misuses the logo of the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

The SRA does not authorise or regulate an individual named 'Cordelia Danjon'.

Any business or transaction through the above email addresses is not undertaken by any individual authorised and regulated by the SRA.

Is there a genuine firm or person?

The SRA authorises and regulates a genuine solicitor named Cordelia Fiona Natalie Sanger (SRA ID 436137).

What should I do?

When a firm's or individual's identity has been copied exactly (or cloned), due diligence is necessary. If you receive correspondence claiming to be from the above firm(s) or individual(s), or information of a similar nature to that described, you should conduct your own due diligence by checking the authenticity of the correspondence by contacting the law firm directly by reliable and established means. You can contact the SRA to find out if individuals or firms are regulated and authorised by the SRA and verify an individual's or firm's practising details. Other verification methods, such as checking public records (e.g. telephone directories and company records) may be required in other circumstances.
