Investment is inherently a process where gains and losses are both possible, especially as high profits are often accompanied by high risks. However, recently, there have been numerous investment schemes claiming "guaranteed profits with no losses," particularly those shared in investment groups or online as so-called "operating techniques." These schemes typically direct investors to download specific investment websites or apps to register. However, such websites are highly likely to be scam traps, and investors need to be extra vigilant.

Fraudulent groups often create fake investment websites, leading victims to believe they are operating on a highly profitable investment platform. These websites display false investment returns, convincing investors to continue investing more money. However, when investors attempt to withdraw their so-called "profits," the scam group delays with excuses such as tax payments or security deposits, ultimately revealing the entire scheme as a scam, with the funds already lost and difficult to recover.

To prevent such scams, the police have established the 165 Anti-Fraud Hotline and published a weekly list of fake investment websites. Investors must carefully choose their investment channels, remember that "high returns come with high risks," stay alert, and avoid falling into fraudulent schemes.

The 165 Hotline publishes a weekly list of fake investment websites (Fraud Information Notice - Fake Investment/Gambling Websites). Investors are urged to carefully choose their investment channels and stay vigilant to avoid being scammed.
