Dood whats with the abuse, I have done research, alot of it, and it has brought me here so far, I have only asked if anyone has heard of the companies, and have any knowledge of them off the top of their head, I haven't asked anyone to spend time looking for me.
Chill.
It's scamming season again when everyone comes out of the woodwork with stories of being ripped off, theres a good reason why this continues to happen. People keep sending these b*stards money.
The details you can check with will be with your father in law, as we know its a scam ask him to simply wake up and ask himself basic questions, like:
Have they paid me any money back yet?
What shares in what companies do i have?
How much are they currently worth?
I'll try selling some so as to believe they are real?
Did I call them or they called me? (probably the latter)
Who is the brokerage house, where are they located, have they been heard of/recognised by others??(FSA or equivalent governing body ect)
If this still fails, you only risk falling out with him and he'll never tell you he got scammed through feeling stupid, however, there is always one line that is always funny to say right at the moment they've just parted with more money and found out to be a scam....it goes like this.
'I told ya so', after which, run like hell.
