74-Year-Old's Life Savings Stolen in Scheme
Donation protected
I was scammed out of my nest egg of
$28,000. I am 74 years old, recovering from a stroke. I am hoping to recover my money for my years of life left.
what a blessing this is to be happening. The money is going into Live Oak Bank savings to build back the nest egg. Share with others is ok. Thanks
I filed a case with the Chicago FBI and the Fraud Department at Fidelity Investments. My CPA checked into all the government agencies that might have helped, but there is no help.
This was what I have now learned is a pump and dump scam. They get you in by using famous financial names and offer tips for AI stocks and other big gain opportunities. In this case, they stole the identity of a certified financial planner and legitimate company.
They produce some market information and keep you engaged until they get you to buy… in the end, they short it to zero and disappear. I lost everything. No money was asked for, and it was traded in my brokerage account.
I am hoping to get 1,000 people to help with $28 or 100 people with $280 or any combination of help.
