Bengaluru Engineer Duped in ‘700% Returns’ Stock Trading Scam, Loses Rs 6.4 Crore

A Bengaluru-based engineer has become the latest victim of a stock trading scam, losing a staggering Rs 6.4 crore after falling for promises of "700% returns" on investments. The scam, which has left the engineer devastated, involved fraudulent trading schemes that lured investors with unrealistic promises of high returns.

The Scam Unfolds

The engineer, who had been introduced to the scheme through social media and online advertisements, was persuaded to invest large sums of money into what appeared to be lucrative stock trading opportunities. The fraudsters behind the scheme claimed that their trading strategies could yield returns as high as 700%, attracting numerous investors.

Unrealistic Promises and Deceptive Practices

At first, the engineer saw substantial gains, which bolstered confidence in the scheme. However, the returns soon dried up, and when the engineer attempted to withdraw the invested funds, he was faced with several roadblocks. The fraudsters made excuses, promising that the funds would be released soon, but never did.

Investigation and Legal Action

Once the scam became apparent, the engineer filed a complaint with local authorities, triggering an investigation into the fraudulent activities. The police have now launched an inquiry into the case, which has prompted many others to come forward with similar complaints.

Rising Awareness of Online Investment Scams

This case highlights the increasing prevalence of online investment scams that prey on individuals seeking quick financial returns. Experts urge people to exercise caution and thoroughly research investment opportunities before committing funds, especially when they promise unusually high returns.

Potential Consequences for the Fraudsters

Authorities are working to track down the individuals behind the scam, but due to the nature of online fraud, they face significant challenges. As more victims come forward, there is hope that the perpetrators will eventually be brought to justice.

Investor Caution and Financial Education

This scam serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of get-rich-quick schemes and the importance of financial literacy. Investors must be vigilant, ensuring that they are investing through legitimate platforms and seeking professional financial advice when necessary to avoid falling victim to similar scams.

Conclusion

As the investigation into the stock trading scam continues, the Bengaluru engineer’s case highlights the growing risk of online investment fraud. It underscores the need for heightened awareness and vigilance to protect individuals from losing their hard-earned money to such deceptive schemes.

Berkeley Burke SLIP with their SIPPS We talk about the so-called “independent advisers” who sell scams to unwitting victims; we talk about the firms, introducers, cold-callers, lead generators, closers, couriers and transfer administrators. Many of the Pension Life blogs mention good old Stephen Ward – one of the leading scammers since 2010 – and we often try to make sure James Hadley doesn’t feel left out either. However, there is another link in the pension scam chain that is often forgotten about – the trustees. A pension scam always starts with two sets of trustees: the ceding trustee which hands over the funds to the scammers and the receiving trustee which allows the scammers to do their work successfully.

No more bogus life assurance policies in Spain The Spanish Insurance Regulator – the DGS (Dirección General de Seguros y Fondos de Pensiones) – has made a most welcome judgment. This outlaws the mis-selling of bogus life assurance policies as investment “platforms” – aka “life bonds”. Read the translated summary below. The iniquitous practice of scamming victims into these expensive, pointless bonds – so beloved by the “chiringuitos” (scammers) on the Costa Blanca and Costa del Sol for many years – will now result in criminal convictions for the peddlers of these toxic products Read the full bog here https://pension-life.com/no-more-bogus-life-assurance-policies-in-spain/ #lifebond #lifequotes #lifesucks #criminals #omi #costablanca #toxic #scammers #outlaws #judgement #spanishlife #spanishmoney #expat #Britishexpat #britsinspain #chiringuitos #evergreen #capitaoak #scamvictim #pensionfund #sipps #qrops #brexit #safeguardyourpension #offshoreIFA #offshoreinvestments #poshbriefcase #pensionlife #pensionscammers #pensionscam #leonteq #lifeassurance https://www.instagram.com/p/BuDwDdBBTK-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19m4kdvuqd01i

Is there no escape from the cold-calling, snake-oil salesmen? Just as predicted, the scammers have managed to sidestep the cold-calling ban on pension selling by using a slightly different tactic. No surprise there then. Just as they morphed from pension liberation into high commission investments, it was only a matter of time – well just two weeks to be precise – before a firm called Cadde Wealth Management approached the matter from a different angle. There really is no escape from the cold-calling snake-oil salesmen: lawless, shameless and – unfortunately – quick-witted.

Pension scammers must be stopped Google’s current top-ranking search return for the phrase “pension scam” is How to avoid a pension scam by Pension Wise. This site offers simple and basic information on how to spot a scam and how to report it. This is followed by The Pensions Regulator (tPR) which, offers 5-step advice to protect a pension from pension scammers. In third place, the Money Advice Service offers information on “How to spot a pension scam”. Money Advice highlight that scammers can be very good at disguising themselves as bona fide, regulated companies. The FCA’s website comes in fourth, with their information on smart scams, advising people to be aware that the offer of a free pension review is often cause for concern and suspicion. But, even with all this information out there, 2017 was still the worst year ever for pension scams. It seems that despite changes to regulations, scammers seem to come out on top nine times out of ten. Serial scammers are able to move onward and upward, scam after scam after scam. Officials, like the regulators, ombudsmen, arbiters and HMRC just stand idly by letting it happen again and again and again.

Pension scammers must be STOPPED In the Pension Life office, we have been wondering how to get the information about pension scams more widely seen, heard and taken on board. We’d like to ensure the masses are educated and aware that pension scammers can strike from many angles, and with a variety of “deals”. Pension scammers must be stopped and together we can work towards this. A quick Google search of the phrase “Pension Scam” shows no end of advice available, so why is this information not being spread to the public more widely and effectively? Why was 2017 the WORST year for pension scams?

Long-term savings plans by Friends Provident, Generali, Zurich, Hansard and RL360. These have been around for years and are typically mis-sold by seedy, unregulated advisory firms. Why don’t we come up with an alternative? THE LONG-TERM SAVINGS PIG! Roughly speaking, the con artists at Friends Provident, Generali, Zurich, Hansard and RL360 structure these products so that for every two pounds saved, one pound goes to the life office and the spiv who sold the plan to the victim in the first place.

Pension scammers have a “code”. Rather like pirates, they are not to be trusted. They pick their words carefully, revealing little; they are sneaky and lack any morals. They are good at disguises and if they fear they may be rumbled, they will disappear over the horizon, never to be seen again. They certainly won’t hang around to help pick up the pieces after their victims have been ruined. Rest assured, they will take as much as they can get and show no remorse.
