Rare Earth Metals

Posts: 3 Newbie
A few years back I invested in some rare earth metals but the company disappeared, although I do have the metals. Recently I was contacted by a company saying it has identifed people like me and has potentially a large amount of rare earth metals and has identified a buyer.
Has anybody any knowledge about the state of the rare earth metals market or heard of a new scam that will somehow seek to gain money from those of us who already paid out for the metals?

Have you googled rare earth metals scam?
I turned up this article:
http://www.independent.co.uk/money/spend-save/rare-metals-beware-the-scam-call-that-could--cost-you-the-earth-8439452.html
So, if you've paid for them I think it's possibly too late to worry about it.0 -
You are on a sucker list - just put the phone down on them (and any other scammers in the future who will certainly be ringing you).0
