Avoiding Financial Scams: What You Need to Know
Please stop scrolling for one minute as this directly impacts every single one of you and your money. I'm Tyler, a former financial advisor and portfolio manager, and now I create financial content for free so you don’t have to pay for it.
1. Limited Accounts
I do not have multiple accounts on any platform. I do not have a backup account, a Telegram account, or a Facebook account. SocialCap on TikTok and SocialCap official on Instagram and YouTube are my only three accounts.
2. No Direct Contact
I will never follow you, direct message you first, or make contact with you directly in any way. It's not that I don't like you; it’s just that I don’t do it. If someone does and is pretending to be me, you can rest assured that it is a scammer trying to steal your money.
3. No Investment Requests
I will never ask you to invest in cryptocurrency, Forex trading, or offer some exciting investment opportunity claiming I can double your money if you just send me some of yours. All of that is a scam. Remember, I gave up my financial licenses, so that would be illegal.
4. Reporting Scammers
If someone reaches out to you pretending to be me and offers you a guaranteed return on something, report them, block them, and please share this information with a friend who might have missed it.
Thank you, and I look forward to helping you get one step closer to where you need to be, legitimately.
