National Securities and Stock Market Commission cooperates with Cyberpolice to protect investors’ rights

The NSSMC and the Cyber Police Department of the National Police are taking joint measures to inform and protect Ukrainian investors from suspicious projects.

Recently, the NSSMC asked the Cyberpolice to provide a list of SCAM projects that were likely to be operating from enemy territory, disguising the real owners and physical location of the web pages.

For its part, the Cyberpolice took the necessary measures within its competence to block access to the websites of the relevant projects in Ukraine to prevent possible damage.

Remember that sometimes lack of knowledge about investing increases the likelihood of becoming a victim of fraud. Fraudsters use ignorance to seize funds by creating SCAM projects. Therefore, we remind you always assess the possible risks and check potential investment projects before investing.

Signs that may indicate that projects are unreliable:
1. Offering excessive returns that are many times higher than the average interest rate.
2. Lack of permits and licences.
3. Aggressive marketing.
4. Lack of a physical office.
5. Lack of registration in the country of investment.
6. No investor accreditation.
7. Suspicious or non-verified biographies of managers.
8. Lack of signed documents.
9. Obsessive suggestion to involve friends.
10. Concealment of ownership.

The NSSMC continues to cooperate with the Cyber Police. We already have 424 suspicious investment projects on our list. Get information about new cases on the official resources of the NSSMC.
