Scam artists love the holidays and will use your good intentions of giving to their advantage. 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 Silver bells)
Holiday season, is the reason
To be watchful of scams
Con artists
come ou – out in full force
They ‘ll get to know you,
Pretend they like you
And promise high returns
But, all they want to do is rob you!
CHORUS
Be fraud aware, get the Guide
InvestRight is here to help you
Subscribe to our blogs, recognize the frauds
And re-port those pushing the scams
They will cold call
Hold a seminar
Lure you in the best they can
Everything just sounds
So-o amazing
They’ll offer offshore
No risk tax-free
What a great opportunity
You’ll be pressured to get in quickly.
CHORUS
Who’s a con artist?
What do they look like?
How will you recognize them?
When they look just like
You-u and me-e.
Your family likes him
Your pastor trusts him
So why shouldn’t you?
Why should you be left out of this deal?
CHORUS
Who’s a con artist?
What do they look like?
How will you recognize them?
When they look just like
You-u and me-e.
Give your family and friends the gift of InvestRight this season, so we can all be fraud aware.
