Annuity Alert in Phoenix, AZ

What is Annuity Alert?

Annuity Alert is a service offered by Sun Cities Financial Group to help their clients stay informed about potential annuity scams and protect their investments. The service includes alerts about new scams and tips on how to avoid them. Sun Cities Financial Group’s goal is to help their clients make informed decisions about their annuity investments and ensure their financial security.

Potential Annuity Scams

Unfortunately, there are unscrupulous individuals and organizations that prey on unsuspecting individuals, particularly seniors, with annuity scams. It’s essential to be aware of the warning signs of potential annuity scams, including:

  • Unsolicited Offers – If you receive an unsolicited offer for an annuity, be wary. Legitimate financial advisors do not cold-call individuals with offers for annuities. Be especially cautious of unsolicited offers that come via mail or email.
  • Promises of High Returns – Any promise of an unusually high return on investment should be viewed with suspicion. Annuities are not high-risk, high-reward investments. Be wary of any offer that claims to offer higher returns than other similar products on the market.
  • High-Pressure Sales Tactics – If you feel pressured to buy an annuity or make a quick decision, walk away. A reputable financial advisor will take the time to explain the product and answer your questions. Be wary of any advisor that uses high-pressure tactics to convince you to buy an annuity.
  • Requests for Personal Information – Never provide personal information, such as your social security number, to someone you do not know and trust. Be especially cautious of any advisor that asks for personal information early in the sales process.
