Day five - Pension scams

Pension scams. More so than ever, pension scammers are looking to exploit savers out of their valuable pension benefits.   Scammers are targeting pension pots of all sizes so make sure you know how to spot the signs. The Financial Conduct Authority and The Pensions Regulator suggest following four simple steps.
