About INVESTMENT FRAUD

How investment fraud affects Revolut customers

Investment fraud is the largest category of APP fraud in the UK. Criminals create convincing fake investment platforms, often advertising through social media, search engines, or even cloned websites of legitimate firms. Victims are typically contacted with promises of high returns and encouraged to make an initial small deposit. As apparent ‘profits’ grow on the fake platform, victims are pressured into transferring larger sums. When they try to withdraw, they discover the platform is fraudulent and their money is gone.
