An English-language “Forbes Bahrain” publishing business profiles and features. Here is the evidence, and where the real publication actually lives.
Forbes Bahrain is fake. Bahrain is covered by the licensed Forbes Middle East, operated from Dubai.
Not among the 49 officially licensed Forbes editions.
Its About page is filler text describing a “prestigious Forbes Switzerland team” — a different fake in the same network.
Its Contact page lists the address of Google’s headquarters (1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy) and the placeholder phone +1-234-5678.
Every article is signed by one “Ahmed Al-Khalifa”; its texts are duplicated from the fake Vanity Fair Germany (the FMG Group network).
Part of the FMG Group network whose placements are sold with guarantees by PR agencies. If an offer lands in your inbox, run the checks above before paying.
