Modus Operandi
Initial Contact: Scammers contact potential victims through phone calls, emails, or social media, presenting a lucrative opportunity to earn money by trading stocks.
Building Trust: They build trust by providing small initial returns on investments, creating the illusion of legitimacy.
Investment Request: Victims are then asked to invest larger sums of money to unlock higher returns.
Continuous Pressure: Scammers maintain pressure on the victims to keep investing more money, often using emotional manipulation.
Disappearance: Once the victim has invested a significant amount, the scammers disappear, leaving the victim with no way to recover their money.
