NoGoFallMaga (NGFM), a campaign instituted by the CyberSafe Foundation has released its first Investment Scam handbook through its community platform.
Released on August 12 to align with this year’s World Youth Day, the handbook is an essential tool that would protect individuals and businesses from investment scams. It provides an in-depth look at the warning signs of Ponzi scams and offers tips on how to stay safe. The objective is for the handbook to continuously educate people on these cyber crime tactics. The release of the handbook is to align with the theme for this year’s World Youth Day, “Intergenerational solidarity,” and the NGFM community wants to encourage people, especially the youth, to show solidarity with other generations by educating them about the dangers of investment scams. Since youths are the most active online, more conversant with emerging technologies and energetic, the onus is on them to act as a sort of intergenerational stop gap, protecting other generations from the nefarious activities of fraudsters.
The CyberSafe Foundation’s NoGoFallMaga Community is a group of online security experts who are set to help people protect their money, assets, and identities online.
