Since the beginning of this year, the Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) received nearly 50 percent more notifications of online investment fraud than in the same period last year. More and more people find their way to the FSMA not only to notify that they have become the victim of fraud, but also as a precautionary measure before actually deciding to make an investment. The FSMA steps up its efforts to increase people’s vigilance and to encourage them to notify fraud even faster.
