If an investment opportunity is too good to be true, it may be a scam by a sophisticated criminal. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) regulates one critical part of the securities industry – brokerage firms doing business with the public in the United States. FINRA has created several tools for members of the public to test the validity of an investment. FINRA offers a Scam Meter tool to help investors assess whether an opportunity is too good to be true. FINRA also has a Risk Meter, which determines if an investor shares characteristics and behavior traits that have been shown to make some individuals particularly vulnerable to investment fraud.
