Welcome to Alert Fraud. Being a victim of boiler room investment fraud ourselves for £317,000 ($500,000) and experiencing it first hand, the whole resistance and apathy we experienced from the Police, fraud authorities and financial institutions across the globe was a huge shock. The lack of interest was massive and resistance was strong. It took us 10 weeks of banging on doors just to be acknowledged that the fraud needed investigating. Frustration is an understatement of how we felt.
When you first realise you are victim, there is a period of emotional shock and at this time you are at your most vulnerable, this is the time you need supporting and the correct guidance. But it’s simply not available and the fraudsters know this and are having free reign. Reporting the crime itself was met with intense resistance from various authorities and Police forces which you would not expect.
I built this website as a way to document what happened to my family, giving us some emotional closer by way of expression and I would hope the website also educates, informs and helps you, your family and friends with similar fraud issues. If you are victim of fraud see the fraud resources page for more info and how to report it ASAP.
I hope this website can somehow help you, your friends and your family.
All the Best.
