DON’T LOSE YOUR PENSION TO SCAMMERS

Pensioners are often targeted by scammers posing as financial advisors. To stay safe, be cautious of unsolicited calls, emails, or messages asking for personal or financial information. Verify the identity of anyone contacting you and be wary of "too good to be true" offers.

When making financial decisions, consult a trusted advisor regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Take your time, and if an opportunity seems suspicious, investigate further.

Protect your hard-earned savings by being vigilant and informed.

PAUSE, QUESTION, PROTECT

Follow these three steps when you get the funny feeling something might not be right:

  • If someone contacts you demanding you act immediately regarding your pension, consider if you would trust a stranger on the street asking you the same thing.
  • Ask yourself why there’s an urgency to provide personal details.
  • Cut all contact – it’s better to be safe than sorry.
