FBI Issues US Social Media And Messaging Warning — What To Know
Beware of ramp and dump attacks, the FBI warns. It has been, without any shadow of a doubt, a busy few days regarding Federal Bureau of Investigation warnings concerning cybercrime. On June 30, the FBI issued an alert for the aviation industry that attackers from the Scattered Spider ransomware group were shifting their attention to this industry sector. By July 2, that FBI warning had become a stark reality as Qantas confirmed it had fallen victim to a 'cyber incident.' Now, the FBI has issued a public service advisory, as cybercriminals are using social media platforms and messaging apps to target U.S. stock investors with a ramp-and-dump fraud. Here's what you need to know. FBI Warns Of Ramp-And-Dump Frauds Using Social Media And Messaging Apps FBI Public Service Advisory I-070325-PSA, dated July 3, has warned the general public that cyber criminals are targeting anyone in the U.S. who is investing in stocks with a ramp-and-dump fraud that is initiated through the use of social media platforms promoting investment clubs. Many of the members of these so-called clubs have, upon investigation, turned out to be fake accounts, and active members are likely to be mostly bot-operated accounts. The social media posts, the FBI said, 'typically direct victims to secure messaging apps where the group operates.' And if you are already to dismiss victims as the easily fooled, the FBI goes on to warn that the attackers are impersonating 'legitimate brokerage firms or well-known stock analysts,' to create an air of respectability and, more importantly, trust. 'So far in 2025, the FBI has seen at least a 300 percent increase in victim complaints referencing ramp-and-dump stock fraud from 2024,' the FBI warned, revealing just how much of a problem this has become, hence the urgent need for the advisory. The criminals will have control over a relatively large volume of relatively low-priced stocks, and the aim of the fraud is to get investment club members to purchase shares over weeks or months in order to inflate the price. This is the ramp bit of the fraud involved. The dump comes into play once a suitably over-inflated price has been achieved and the fraudsters sell all their stock at a profit, with the investment club members left holding a fair bit of nothing at all as the price crashes. FBI Advice On How To Identify Ranp-And-Dump Stock Fraud The FBI advisory recommended that investors look to recognise the following indicators of ramp-and-dump schemes: Readers are urged to report any such incidents to the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center at as soon as possible.

Jim Cramer on Howmet Aerospace: 'Likely to Finish the Year Dramatically Higher'
Howmet Aerospace Inc. (NYSE:HWM) is one of the 25 stocks Jim Cramer recently shared insights on. During the episode, Cramer noted that it is one of the stocks investors should consider. He said: 'But what do we do with the very different set of winners for the first half? I want you to consider the GE Vernovas and the Howmets and the Palantirs, the stocks that are likely to finish the year dramatically higher from these exalted levels. What do you do with the stocks that have been on a run nonstop for 26 weeks, though? I think you send them on one of those two-week vacations like that Southeast Asia, Cape Town, maybe New Zealand. You pay no attention to them. Let them have a good time. Just take them off your screen, come back to them when the rotations run its course.' Engineers examining stress tests of an aircraft engine, working to make sure its ready for flight. Howmet (NYSE:HWM) delivers advanced components and solutions for aerospace and transportation, including engine parts, fastening systems, engineered structures, and forged aluminum wheels. The company serves both commercial and defense sectors globally. During a March episode, Cramer mentioned the company stock and said: 'Finally, there are the industrials, again, a group that's prone to failure during a recession. See my point? These are all oddities, right?… Then it's followed by GE Aerospace and Howmet, which makes fasteners for planes. These are both part of the aerospace bull market, which is still going on. It's a quiet one that shows no sign of quitting at all.' While we acknowledge the potential of HWM as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
