The Three P’s: Profile, Persuasion, Prevention
Join staff from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a
seminar on investment fraud and financial scams – and how you can
protect yourself from them. Topics covered will include the “Three P’s of Investment Fraud”:
The profile of the typical investment-fraud victim, the persuasion
tactics con artists use to trick seniors and other investors, and what
you can do to help prevent this from happening to you or your
friends. Investors are welcome to share their questions, stories, and
concerns about these topics, about saving and investing, or about
the S.E.C. generally. Free handouts, including the S.E.C.’s official
guide for senior investors, will be available to take home. The speaker will be Eric Giroux, who has been a lawyer in the S.E.C.’s Boston Regional Office for over a decade.
Registration begins May 1st. Register by May 17th.
