Fraud Prevention Month: Are You Doing All You Can?

Sterling Faux Filling In For Jill Bennett!

FRAUD VULNERABILITY One in four British Columbians could be vulnerable to investment fraud. In February, the BCSC surveyed over 500 British Columbians on their reaction to an investment offer that claimed “guaranteed” returns of 14 to 25 per cent and “no risk.”  Although the offer is almost certainly fraudulent, 26 per cent of people surveyed said the opportunity was worth looking into. The survey gave us a good window into who is vulnerable to investment fraud in our province today.
