Losing money to a scam broker is bad enough. What many people don’t expect is the second scam that follows — the “recovery” scam.
How it works
Fraudsters buy or scrape lists of victims and pose as recovery agents, lawyers, or even regulators. They promise to get your money back — for an up-front fee.
The golden rule
Never pay an up-front fee to recover funds. Legitimate help does not work that way. Anyone demanding payment before recovering anything is running a scam.
Protect yourself
Be sceptical of anyone who contacts you out of the blue about a loss, especially if they already know details about your case. When in doubt, ask us first — we never charge up-front fees.
