🌎 This Earth Day, we’re reminded how lucky we are in Alberta to have some of the world’s most beautiful natural spaces right in our backyard — from our local pathways to the Rockies beyond.

Let’s do our part to respect and protect the places we all share and help keep our parks beautiful for generations to come.

Scams hurt people financially and psychologically. Victims often report feeling afraid and ashamed, losing their ability to trust, and losing confidence in how they interact with friends, family, and others.

Fraudsters will pretend to be recovery experts or law enforcement agencies claiming they can get fraud victims get their money back. Recovery room scams target victims twice by charging fees to “recover” lost investments. Neither the fee nor their services are legitimate.

Protect yourself :
• Never pay upfront fees for “fund recovery.”
• Be cautious of guarantees; no one can promise to recover your money.
• Report suspicious offers to the ASC.
