Investment & Cryptocurrency Scams

Recognise pressure, unrealistic returns and fake-platform patterns before you send money or connect a crypto wallet.

No genuine opportunity needs secrecy or panic

Investment scams often promise guaranteed returns, insider access, a low-risk trading system or a fast recovery from a prior loss. They may use social-media ads, celebrity images, group chats, fake advisers or convincing dashboards that show invented gains.

Verify before you transfer or connect

Do not rely on a screenshot, a testimonial or a person you met online. Independently check whether a business or adviser is authorised in your jurisdiction, research its official domain, and be cautious of any request to install remote-access software, move funds off-platform, share a wallet recovery phrase or approve an unfamiliar transaction.

Use the guided assessment honestly

The Investment/Crypto checker is a guided, user-supplied assessment until live regulator and warning-list connections are available. It does not verify an investment or guarantee safety. If you sent funds, contact the relevant financial or platform provider quickly and beware paid recovery offers.
