If You Think You Are A Victim of a Boiler Room Fraud

Here are some steps that it is suggested that you take

1) Contact your local police and report the fraud to get a crime number

2) Call your own bank and inform them of fraudulent activity and request them place a trace on the swift codes for the accounts you paid the money into and if possible try and recall the funds. If you believe fraud was involved they apparently have a duty to contact the receiving bank.

3) Email the SEC agent Scott Frost with your info on frosts@sec.gov

4) Possibly ring the US Secret Service. They apparently have the power to freeze accounts.
