London, United Kingdom Jul 8, 2018 (Issuewire.com) - Confidence scams are on the rise across the world, with hundreds of millions of dollars lost every year, and anybody could be a victim. Reclaws International, a professional finance recovery firm with a worldwide client base, are concerned that so many innocent people are being taken in by confidence tricksters. They’re here to help everyday people start on their investment journey by offering their company-checking service and also those who have already been a victim of a scam get their money back too.
In early June, Reclaws International was involved in a huge raid against a scam-company – FTOCAPITAL.COM - whose call centre was based in the Philippines and had been active for nearly three years. Reports estimated that this company was making a cool $1million a day at the height of its operations. Reclaws worked closely with 200 clients who had been scammed out of their hard-earned money and provided this intelligence to the Philippines’ government which lead to the arrest of nearly 500 people involved in the scheme. The victims of this scam came from worldwide, with complaints being lodged against FTOCAPITAL.COM from South Africa and Australia.
The majority of these scams are advertised as ‘get rich quick!’ schemes that post links on everyday websites, luring people in with the promise of quick riches for very little effort. As soon as you click the link these fraudsters will have your contact details and soon afterwards you’ll receive emails and phone calls from a representative. They’ll paint a beautiful picture of a low investment sum – usually a mere 250USD. They’ll even help you get set up on their trading system and it’s as easy as letting them have remote access to your computer. Sound too good to be true? It sure is because innocent investors will soon find their bank accounts wiped of all their precious savings and retirement funds.
Other tactics include taking an initial investment amount but then it turns out your investments aren’t doing so well so you’ll need to make top-up payments. This could go on for months and, if you decide you’ve changed your mind and want to pull out of the investment, they’ll lay on their honeyed-scripted words and convince you to stay.
Everything you will be shown as part of their website will look the real deal, but one day you won’t be able to access the website, and the number you had for your handler won’t work. This is because their activities will have come to the attention of the authorities and the fraudsters will have to move on – and they’ll take your money with them. That’s when you’ll realise that you’ve been caught in a confidence trickster’s web and it was all a huge lie.
However, investing in a company or on the stock market is a very real opportunity for you to make money and Reclaws International is here to help. They will investigate a potential company for your investment and make sure that it is a real, legal and legitimate business. They also keep a list of known fake companies to avoid and also provide hints and tips on how to spot a potential scam so you won’t have to go through the embarrassment and heartbreak of lining a fraudster’s pocket. Reclaws International has years of experience helping people and governments from all around the world in a professional manner so you know your money is in safe hands.
