Protecting yourself against fraud
If you think you have been a victim of fraud or have received unsolicited contact using the Schroders Personal Wealth or Schroders (our Parent Company) name and have any concerns, then please contact us.
Fraud alerts
Unfortunately scams and attempted frauds through social media, phone calls and emails claiming to be from a Schroders Personal Wealth representative do sometimes occur. You may be contacted by people claiming to be from Schroders Personal Wealth who will try to persuade you to invest with them.
Fraud prevention
Fraudsters are constantly developing their tactics and looking for new ways to steal your money through social engineering tactics. Resist the urge to act immediately no matter how dramatic the claim or urgent the situation. It is important to recognise a scam and understand how you can help protect yourself.
