Beware of fast gains promises from strangers

As we step into the Year of the Snake, I urge you not to start the year on a negative note. Recently, there has been a concerning development in the US market with the appearance of a scam stock on Friday, January 17. Worse, there’s another one stock to launch in Hong Kong in the coming week. While the temptation to jump in may be strong, I ask you to pause and consider: Are these scammers truly acting in your best interest, or are they simply looking to benefit at your expense?

These scammers have grand plans, and there will be lavish gatherings in China, Hong Kong, and even San Francisco Chinatown, where they will celebrate their ill-gotten gains. Please, don’t contribute to their success by investing your hard-earned money in these fraudulent schemes. Let’s not allow their schemes to tarnish what should be a prosperous year for all of us. Stay vigilant and protect yourself.

very true. I'm monitoring one viber group now. advisor is Patrick. He's been prepping his followers for his Wed 2pm signal for a stock to jump up by 30-50% within 2-3 days.
