| Be Alert for Telltale Signs of Online Investment Fraud
Read this on the sec website and though it was worth sharing. Note the second bullet -- Quote:
Be wary of promises of quick profits, offers to share "inside" information, and pressure to invest before you have an opportunity to investigate.
Be careful of promoters who use "aliases." Pseudonyms are common on-line, and some salespeople will to try to hide their true identity. Look for other promotions by the same person.
Words like "guarantee," "high return," "limited offer," or "as safe as a C.D." may be a red flag. No financial investment is "risk free" and a high rate of return means greater risk.
