There has been an increase in fraudsters impersonating legitimate Financial Services Providers using various social media platforms such as WhatsApp, Telegram etc.
Fraudsters create fake WhatsApp and Telegram groups and entice people to contact them by offering investments with guaranteed high returns over a short investment term. To make these groups look legitimate they copy company logos and even impersonate employees. Don’t be caught by one of these scams!
Beware of investments that guarantee abnormally high investment returns over a short investment period and make sure you invest your money only with credible organisations registered with the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA).
Should you wish to make an investment please contact Nedgroup Investments on 0800 123 263.
