Investment Scams: Impersonating Popular Investors on Facebook
12 October 2026
⚠️ Scammers are pretending to be popular investors on Facebook. They post ads that promise "exclusive tips" or "free analysis". When you click the ad, you are sent to a website that redirects you to a WhatsApp chat with a fake "guru" who asks you to install a fraudulent investment app or visit a fake trading website.

Stay Alert
🚨 Never click links or download suspicious apps from unsolicited WhatsApp chats.
✅ Verify the opportunity by checking the investor's official social media pages and website directly.
☎️ Unsure if it's a scam? Call the 1799 Scamshield Helpline.
