Protecting Against Financial Exploitation
Financial exploitation involves the illegal or improper use of a person’s funds by another individual. Examples of financial exploitation include improper use of power of attorney, coercion, or fraudulent transfer of assets. Elderly or vulnerable persons (of any age) may be especially susceptible to financial exploitation due to cognitive decline, physical disability, or health problems, which can impair their capacity to recognize financial exploitation and scams. If you wish to report suspected financial exploitation with respect to your investment account please call PFS Investments Inc. at 1-800-243-8901. You may also choose to designate a secondary individual for us to contact if we have reasonable concern about your well-being. To establish a secondary contact for your investment account, please contact your PFS Investments Inc. representative. For more information on how to protect against financial exploitation, visit the FINRA Investor Education Foundation’s website at www.saveandinvest.org or FINRA’s Investor Alerts page at www.finra.org/Investors/ProtectYourself/InvestorAlerts.
