What is bank guarantee fraud?
Bank guarantee fraud involves bogus investment schemes that promise you quick riches if you invest in a fund that buys bank guarantees issued by prime banks such as ING.#N#The fraudsters will invite you to invest and will tell you that the bank guarantees will be bought at a discount and sold shortly afterwards at a huge profit. They will try to make the schemes appear legal and legitimate by showing you complex, sophisticated documents that appear to be official. They may tell you, falsely, that your investments will be secured by letters of credit, bank guarantees or other guaranteed certificates backed by the world’s major banks. They will claim that you will make high profits if you invest large sums in their schemes. As soon, however, as you part with your money, it will disappear – along with the investment company.#N#Do not respond to these emails. They are part of a fraud and you will not receive any of the promised money.
