The South Sulawesi Regional Investment Alert Task Force (SWI) Team conducted socialization about the form of financial fraud under the guise of investment even though it was fraudulent or fake.
"Recently, there have been very many cases of fraudulent investment, so the SWI Team must go to the field to provide socialization to the community, so they don't get trapped," said Head of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) KR 6 Sulawesi, Maluku and Papua (Sulampapua) Darwisman in Pinrang as reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, August 22.
He said that concerns due to the large number of reports submitted had initiated the SWI Team, which included OJK, South Sulawesi Diskominfo-SP, and the South Sulawesi Regional Police to go to the field to conduct socialization in Pinrang Regency which was one of the targets.
In socializing to the public in Pinrang to be aware of fraud under the guise of investment, appearing as a speaker for each OJK Head KR6 Sulampapua Darwisman, Head of Application and Information for Diskominfo-SP Sulsel Sultan Rakib and Head of Unit 2 Sub Ditreskrimsus Polda Sulsel AKP Kamaluddin.
In his presentation, Darwisman made an analogy that online investments are currently the same type of boarding house investment in the 1990s in Pinrang Regency known as "Kospin".
"That's why people don't believe it and are always ready to invest their funds in fraudulent investments. That's the same thing before, right here Kospin. That's the same with Mr. Mother," said Darwisman.
Darwisman said there were several characteristics of online investment institutions or companies. One of them is the one who has an OJK permit. Currently, only 102 online investment companies are under the supervision of the OJK, and in fact as many as 3,000 fraudulent investment services are circulating.
Meanwhile, the Sultan of Rakib, Head of Application and Informatics, DiskominfoSP, South Sulawesi, said that what made people easily tempted by fraudulent investments, was because they met three points.

The first point is the progress and acceleration of digital transformation, the second point is the style of society that always wants to be seen 'wah', and the third point is the lack of public understanding of digital literacy including digital financial literacy.
"You have to be vigilant now. Perpetrators of deception are easy to enter your father's cellphone. Be wise in using social media, don't let our thumbs ups beat our minds," said Sultan Rakib.
The Regent of Pinrang, represented by economic assistant and development Abdul Rahman Mahmud, who opened the socialization, said that his party appreciated the SWI Team for going down to disseminate information to the community.
He said this socialization activity would be useful for the community so that it would not be easily influenced by the lure of fraudulent investment actors.
