Alternative Investing: The New Scam in a Suit? Once upon a time, scams looked shady. They came with fake calls, suspicious emails, and too good to be true promises. But today, things have changed. Now scams wear suits speak perfect English and come with glowing websites and influencer shoutouts. They look professional they look modern and they are calling it the future of investing. This new face of money is being sold to people as alternative investing a smarter way to grow your money a fresh option outside the boring world of mutual funds and FDs. You open the app, and suddenly, you can invest in everything from preIPO shares to office laptops, luxury villas, and startup loans. It feels exciting you feel early It feels like you are doing something smart but pause for a second and look closely. Most of these platforms are not backed by regulators. There is no safety net if things go wrong no SEBI, No RBI, Just legal terms buried in fine print and a lot of smooth marketing that makes it sound safer than it really is. There are real stories behind this a young professional put her savings into a property deal where she thought she owned a part of a villa, months passed No rental income when she tried to exit, she found out she didn’t legally own anything at all just a document with big promises. Another person invested in a startup loan deal through a platform that promised twelve percent returns. The company defaulted the platform said they are not responsible and the money Gone. These platforms don’t lose when you lose they make money when you invest their goal is not to grow your wealth. It’s to grow their business, and your money is just the fuel. So what should you do Slow down, Ask simple questions, Who runs this platform, Is it registered, Where is the money going, What if the deal fails, Can you get your money back, Are you investing because it feels safe or because it looks cool. The truth is, not every new thing is good And not every good thing is right for everyone.
