We are currently witnessing an increased number of “investment fraud” attacks in Switzerland. How can you protect yourself against such attempts at investment fraud?
“Investment fraud” scam tactics involve attacks serving to convince victims to participate in a fake investment. To this end, fraudsters promise to achieve an (unrealistically) high yield to induce their victims to remit money.
Investments are purportedly made into objects such as gold, real estate, crypto currency and land. However, any money you part with always ends up straight in fraudsters’ pockets.
