Tips to Avoid Being a Victim of Affinity Fraud

Sometimes the people closest to us are the ones that hurt us the most. Unfortunately, that also includes financially.

Spotting these schemes can sometimes be difficult simply because of the implicit trust we place in these types of people. It is important to always maintain a mindset of skepticism when it comes to safeguarding your hard earned money. I put together a quick video on red flags that you should look out for and how to protect yourself from falling prey to these particular types of fraudsters.
