Recently, there has been a phenomenon in the market of some individuals claiming to be employees of securities companies and fund management companies calling people to invite them to invest in securities by participating in forums and groups on social networks such as Facebook, Zalo, etc. or downloading, installing, and using trading applications (apps).
Accordingly, these subjects introduce people to opportunities to invest in securities, and at the same time invite them to participate in forums and groups on social networks to receive advice on securities investment, securities trading, or to download, install, and use trading applications (apps).
In light of the above situation, the State Securities Commission recommends that people raise their awareness when receiving phone calls from strangers; be careful and consider avoiding being lured into participating in applications (apps), forums, and groups on cyberspace for the purpose of investing in securities. When participating in the stock market, investors need to equip themselves with knowledge about securities, the stock market and find information related to the stock market at the official channels of the management agency, the market operator and the securities business organizations with the function of consulting and securities brokerage licensed by the State Securities Commission, to avoid being scammed and having their assets misappropriated.
In case of suspicion or detection of individuals impersonating securities companies, fund management companies providing false information and other fraudulent acts, people are requested to immediately notify the authorities for handling in accordance with the provisions of law.
