The Standing Committee for Awareness and Warning of Unauthorized Trading in Securities in the Foreign Exchange Market called on Saudi citizens and resident expatriates to be cautious and wary of the methods used by persons or companies that provide unlicensed forex and digital currencies, which involve high risks and deplete their money and savings and expose them to fraud.

The committee warned against dealing with social media accounts and unknown websites that hunt citizens and expats and impersonate the names and photos of well-known personalities with the aim of misleading them to enter into fake investment projects. Before dealing with anyone ensure their reliability and verify their authenticity by referring government agencies and make sure that they have necessary licenses.
