Dear Katie,
Last year my partner of 15 years told me he had invested a significant amount of money in an internet investment company. He had made an initial investment of £75,000 four years previously and received annual statements showing his investment was doing well. Over the next three years he made more payments.
After four years he wanted to withdraw some money, and he was told a lawyer needed to become involved. He has now paid the investment firm, and the lawyer, a combined £500,000. Then the website disappeared.
