An InvestRight holiday carol

Scam artists will use your good intentions of giving to their advantage during the holidays. Be an informed investor and learn the warning signs of fraud this season with this Christmas-themed song. Sing the InvestRight carol (sung to the tune of Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer).

You heard of advisor misconduct

And market manipulation

Insider trading

and illegal distribution

But do you recall

The most famous scam of them all?

Charles Pietro Ponzi

Was a very cunning man

He was known in the Americas

For his money making plan

He paid the early investors

With money from the later ones

He swindled millions of dollars

Before he was caught, jailed and done

This type of investment scheme

Will be stopped if you can

Spot the fraud warning signs

And report by phone, e-mail or online

Use the InvestRight website

To help you on your way

To making good investment decisions

And protect your hard-earned money
