A national campaign launched by the National Fraud Authority warns UK investors they risk falling victim to thousands of pounds worth of fraud if they fail to take simple steps to check who they鈥檙e investing with.
The campaign, led by Action Fraud, the national fraud and internet crime reporting centre estimates that 拢1.2 billion is lost nationally to investment fraud every year.
As part of a national call to action, entitled The Devil鈥檚 in Their Details, government and the private sector have come together to advise investors of the steps they can take to identify and avoid these scams.
Action Fraud has teamed up with industry bodies including Financial Fraud Action UK (FFA UK), representing the banks and wider financial services sector, and regulators including the Financial Services Authority (FSA) to raise awareness amongst those at greatest risk of falling victim to fraud.
