Verify the Stock-God Qualification, Guard Against Illegal Securities Traps

"N times leverage, one daily limit, double principal." Investors are likely to be moved when they hear this. But be careful, this is a common tactic for illegal securities and futures activities. In recent years, many investors have suffered huge economic losses due to being involved in illegal securities and futures activities.

Case 1: Illegal stock recommendation, stock market slander

A company that claimed to be a formal investment consulting company contacted Mr. Li. The company claimed that it relied on big data and quantitative transactions, and had cooperative relationships with most securities firms to be more sensitive to inside information, and all customers would definitely make money.

The company arranged for an "expert" to use QQ to guide Mr. Li. The "expert" informed Mr. Li of a stock code before the opening of the market for several consecutive days, and then asked Mr. Li to pay attention to the stock. Sure enough, the stock would be "pulled up" that day. After many attention, Mr. Li firmly believed that "experts" could operate stocks and have first-hand information.

Mr. Li purchased membership services and bought stocks according to the instructions of the "experts". First, he made a small profit of several thousand yuan, and then continued to increase investment. However, he found that every stock was opened at a high point. He followed the instructions of the "experts" many times to cut meat and adjust positions, but in the end, he was deeply involved. Mr. Li tried to negotiate with the company's staff to resolve matters such as refunds, but the other party tried every means to pass the buck, only promising to replace a better "expert", and finally simply ignored him and cut off all contact. Not only did Mr. Li not break the trap, but he lost more than 100,000 yuan.

Case 2: Illegal issuance of stocks

Ms. Shen had just received the year-end bonus when she received an unfamiliar call from a private equity firm. On the other end of the phone, she said that XX multinational company had been approved by a stock exchange in a European country and was about to be listed on the main board of that country. In order to reward investors, the fund company sells original shares to investors on behalf of XX multinational companies. The original shares are priced at a low price. Once the company is successfully listed, it will gain huge benefits. If the listing is unsuccessful, the company will buy back shares at an amount higher than the investor's purchase price, making a steady profit.

When Ms. Shen heard that there was such a good thing, she hurriedly searched the Internet for the information of XX multinational company and found that the company was registered in a domestic trading zone, and the official website profile stated that the company was supported by special national policies. Afraid of missing the opportunity to make money, Ms. Shen immediately contacted the fund company's customer service, remitted the funds to the other party's account, and waited for the company's listing principal to double. Soon, Ms. Shen saw the news that XX multinational company had fabricated false news that the company was about to be listed overseas, and had sold original shares through a private equity firm, suspected of illegally issuing shares, and had been subject to supervision.

Case 3: OTC capital allocation

Xiao Cheng joined a WeChat group called "Golden Stock Group." A big investment V made a "high talk" that aroused Xiao Cheng's interest, and then Xiao Cheng took the initiative to add big V friends. Big V often sends him some market opinions and investment suggestions, which deepens Xiao Cheng's trust in his professionalism.

One day, Big V recommended a stock allocation platform to him, claiming that by allocating funds to buy and sell stocks, high returns can be obtained. The principal below 50,000 yuan corresponds to 2 times the income, and the principal between 60,000 yuan and 200,000 yuan corresponds to 3 times the income... The more the principal, the higher the income. Under the guidance of Big V, Xiao Cheng injected capital into the platform. In just a few days, the account's profit exceeded one million yuan. Just as Xiao Cheng was happily preparing to raise the present, he found that he needed to continue to inject capital to unlock the withdrawal authority, so he had to bite the bullet and inject again, but no matter how much he injected, he could not withdraw cash. In fact, the platform is not connected to the real securities market, and funds do not enter formal third-party depository bank accounts, but are directly transferred to the scammer's private accounts. Tips for prevention

The above are all typical cases of illegal securities and futures activities. Investors should choose legal institutions during the investment process, improve their awareness of risk prevention and self-protection capabilities, and beware of being deceived. Here, we also provide a few tips to help you prevent such traps:

1. Identification of subject qualifications

To carry out securities and futures business, you need to be approved by the China Securities Regulatory Commission and obtain corresponding business qualifications. An institution that conducts securities and futures business without obtaining corresponding business qualifications is an illegal institution. Information on legal securities and futures operating institutions and their employees can be inquired through the websites of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, Securities Industry Association, Securities Investment Fund Association, and Futures Industry Association, or verified with the local securities regulatory bureau.

2. Identify business authenticity

If you want to know whether a company's shares have been approved for public issuance, you can go to the websites of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges and the Beijing Stock Exchange to inquire; information about companies listed on the New Third Board can be inquired through the website of Small and Medium-sized Enterprise Share Transfer System Co., Ltd.

3. Identify marketing methods

Securities and futures trading is risky and it is impossible to make steady profits without losing. When you see "experts" who claim to help investors "select dark horse stocks" and "make steady profits without losing," you should be vigilant.

4. Identify Internet websites

You can view the websites of legal securities and futures operating institutions through the websites of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, Securities Industry Association, Securities Investment Fund Association, and Futures Industry Association, or query the filing websites of legal institutions through the ICP/IP address/domain name information filing management system of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

5. Identify the collection account number

The collection account for securities and futures business should be the corporate account of the corresponding financial institution. If investors see that the collection account is a personal account or the account name does not match the name of a financial institution, they should decisively refuse the transfer request.
