Investment Scam Alert: Rise of Fraudulent Investment Schemes in Ghana

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Ghana has issued a public notice warning investors against unlicensed fraudulent investment schemes proliferating across the country. The regulator advises the public to avoid platforms that utilize unauthorized celebrity endorsements, AI-generated deepfakes, anonymous social media profiles, or promises of unreasonably high returns. Investors are directed to verify the licensing status of any capital market entity through the SEC’s official toll-free line, email, or website before engaging with any investment opportunity.
