Spanish regulator warns of scam firms stashing cash abroad
24 Sep 15
Spain’s financial regulator has issued a warning about unauthorised firms scamming clients out of their money by transferring funds to accounts based abroad.
Insistence on an immediate decision
Urgency is a major factor, not only because they want to get their hands on your money asap and with the least possible effort, but because they know that if the investor has time to think properly about the offer, or seeks professional and reliable advice, he will probably reject the offer.
So, scammers use tricks aimed at achieving an immediate decision to try to convince the victim that they are offering a unique opportunity that will expire soon.
