    I know I'm giving them more attention than they deserve, but the website Leo's on giving. The most recent item on their In The Media section looks like it dates from around 2015 and comes with sure warnings of why you should avoid traditional investments and put all your money in dodgy holiday parks instead...

    That would presumably be the same Dow Jones that rose from 19700 to 26500 in 2017. Oops. Probably they should update their website with some more up to date wild prophecies of doom. And delete the old ones, lest anyone see them and conclude that they're just publishing any old nonsense.


    This has been great entertainment.Thank you :lol:

    I reported the Cape Verde one to the FCA and the FCA actually came back to me and asked for more details.

    Classic japes. But out of curiosity, how do you expect to be able to see what they send, without being the domain administrator for toytown.com?

    Those experiences don't remove stupidity!
    I know a lot of fairly stupid people who run successful businesses!
    If they are really still pursuing dodgy investments then they are, I'm sorry to say, stupid.

    So called easy money is always an attraction. Sadly, greedy is another adjective that could be applied.
