How the scam works
- An online advert offers a bargain on buying stocks or cryptocurrencies. It suggests starting with a lower amount.
- To increase credibility, perpetrators also abuse the name of a well-known personality or company.
- A scam broker on the phone will try to convince you to start putting money into an investment account or offer to help you through a remote access program.
5 tips on how to protect yourself
- Always check the details of the company and its offer on the internet, read reviews, talk to your loved ones.
- Do not install programs on your computer or phone that allow remote access.
- Do not enter your credit card or George access details in unknown links.
- Never confirm the payment of investment returns. Only confirm payment and logins that you yourself are entering.
- Remember that you always need a signed contract to invest.
