In order to comprehensively enhance the ability of financial consumers to identify and prevent illegal fundraising, Zhaolian Financial analyzes the characteristics, harmfulness and common illegal fundraising of illegal fundraising, and delivers the knowledge of preventing illegal fundraising to the masses.
Be vigilant against illegal fundraising activities in the name of high-tech investment projects

Criminals often deceive the trust of the elderly by sending free rice and eggs, free travel, organizing free health lectures, etc., and trumpet the so-called high-end pension products, tricking the elderly to buy ordinary elderly health care products and health care equipment, etc., so that the property of the elderly suffers losses at the same time, and the health effect can not be effectively satisfied. At the same time, in the name of applying for "VIP cards", "membership cards" and "prepaid cards", service fees, membership fees, and security deposits are collected from the elderly in disguise. Secondly, in the name of selling nursing home beds and pension apartments, criminals also trick the elderly into participating in illegal fund-raising activities by promising high returns, low risks, promising capital preservation, and agreeing to buyback.
Zhaolian Financial reminds the general public that illegal fundraising is illegal. With the "transformation and upgrading" of various illegal fundraising, the older it is, the more difficult it is to identify, but everything remains the same, and no matter how powerful illegal fundraising is, it is inseparable from the word "profit". To put it simply, many people fall into the trap of illegal fundraising, and they are generally concerned about the profits, while criminals are concerned about the principal of investors. Therefore, if you want to keep your money in your pocket, you must keep the risks in mind and not have a fluke speculation!
