Investment scams

Investment scam checks for Kenya

Investment scams usually promise unusually high or guaranteed returns, hide how profits are generated, and make withdrawals difficult once money is in.

High-risk promises

Be careful with guaranteed monthly returns, pressure to recruit others, secret trading systems, or claims that a limited slot is closing today.

Search the company name, directors, phone numbers, Paybill/Till numbers, website, and social media handles.

Before investing

Check official regulator information, ask how returns are generated, and test whether withdrawal rules are clear before sending money.

Common questions

Is a high monthly return always a scam?

Not always, but guaranteed high returns with little or no risk are a major warning sign and should be verified carefully.

What investment details should I check?

Search the company name, phone numbers, websites, Paybill/Till numbers, app names, and names of promoters or directors.

Check before you pay

Search any suspicious identifier, then report it if you have evidence that can warn others.
