Learn more about:

Investment scams involve out-of-the-blue offers by phone or email to invest in once-in-a-lifetime opportunities.

Scammers will use facts, figures, celebrity endorsed investment advertisements and projections to make the offer seem real.

To protect yourself, never give your details to an unsolicited caller or reply to suspicious emails you weren’t expecting.

Don't allow yourself to be pressured into making decisions about your money or investments.

Speak to your friends and family to get their opinion before committing to any investment opportunities.
