What are stock market scams? Common stock market scam methods Key points How to avoid stock market scams FAQ

A stock market is a regulated exchange where investors buy and sell shares in companies. The exchanges themselves are legitimate — the danger comes from the fraudsters who operate around them: pump-and-dump groups, boiler rooms and unlicensed 'advisors'.

How the stock market works

Types of securities fraud

The classic forms are Ponzi schemes, pump-and-dump campaigns on small stocks, penny-stock promotion, front-running and modern boiler rooms that use social media and message boards instead of phone calls. All share one feature: someone profits from your entry.

How we help

We investigate the individuals and entities behind the pitch, trace where your money went and what the 'advisor' was really selling, and produce a report you can take to your broker, a regulator or an attorney.

Common stock market scam methods

Ponzi schemes — returns paid from new investors' money.
Pump-and-dump — a promoted stock spikes, insiders sell, you hold the loss.
Penny stock promotion through newsletters and message boards.
Boiler rooms and high-pressure 'once in a lifetime' pitches.

Key points

Any 'guaranteed return' or 'insider opportunity' is a red flag.
Real markets are regulated by the SEC and FINRA in the US.
A $25,000 minimum is required for day trading in the US — anyone claiming otherwise is misleading you.
Promotions you didn't seek out are usually someone else's exit strategy.

How to avoid stock market scams

Use registered brokers and advisors you can verify with FINRA.
Learn the basics of valuation before acting on a tip.
Ignore unsolicited stock tips on social media and messaging apps.
If it sounds too good to be true, it is.

Frequently asked questions

The market is regulated by the SEC and FINRA, and the vast majority of participants are legitimate. Fraud exists, but it is the exception — and it leaves a paper trail we can follow.

A group buys a cheap stock, promotes it to drive the price up, then sells into the buying they created. Late buyers are left holding the loss.

Depending on how you paid and who received the funds, recovery may be possible through your broker, a chargeback or a regulator. We build the evidence to support that claim.
