We were taught at our very young ages to look left and right before crossing the street; pay attention to the brightly colored cross walker that guided us, and the bus lights accompanied by the electrically pulled-out stop sign with the intent of restraining us from crossing the street. Now, in our older years concerns about money and internet scams, prompt us to keep an eye on the predators that prey upon us, like the bully at school after our lunch money.
Affinity frauds are like lions in the grass watching us like dinner. In the money markets, affinity frauds pounce on the identifiable and very specific groups, factions of religion, ethnicity, and demographics. It is a new type of fraud that is being watched closely in the Forex market. Playing in the field of predators, some brokers offer alleged investment opportunities to specific areas claiming affinity (likeness, similarity) towards them. Only to lure in a feeling of comfort to better the ability to reel them like fish to the hooked worm.
Getting things done and getting people connected in a world where enormity of true connection is easily portrayed is effortless, via emailing, instant messaging, and so on. Individuals need to be aware of this when they are making investments with Forex brokers or other types. The companies, regulators, and capital of the newfound brokers, traders or investors need to be researched.
Being legitimate with a few real customers is a typical move for these swindlers, forming the bond, working with them hand in hand, getting the testimonials, and then using that as collateral to fetch others. Being the lucky ones to be embarked on a fraud that can lead to damages they cannot live with is unfortunate for the "others". The lack of notifying the authority is all too common in this situation. Trying to fix issues within the group, and leaving them quickly shorthanded and alone is usually what happens instead.
Ways to avoid Affinity Frauds
1) The first thing to do, which I feel is the most important, before investing ANYTHING, is to call and ask your state or provincial security agencies about the sales person, firm or company. This is a simple maneuver, and can save a heap of you a good chunk of money. First, ask if the investor or company is registered, and then see if the investment is allowed to be sold. If not completely back away, those investors have a way with words, and do not care in anyway for you. DO your research!
2) From the investor, get written information on the procedures of the investment, the risks, and what you will have to go through to get your money out.
3) Get professional advice from an attorney, financial planner, or accountant. You are much better off whether you get it free from a friend or you pay them.
4) Earlier people the investor had that were legitimate could be incredibly enthusiastic, however later arrivals may not be so pleased. So pay attention to dates of testimonials. Look closely for odd names and repetitive names. Be AWARE! - 23309
