FYI,

Read this... http://www.fsa.gov.uk/library/communication/speeches/2012/1115-tm.shtml

Pension Liberation is now officially a financial crime and a priority for the FSA for 2013 ( read the conclusion).

"We must engage ever more closely with law enforcement and other agencies here and abroad to tackle complex financial crimes, like boiler rooms and pension liberation frauds, that can only be pursued using a multi-agency approach, an approach that depends on us fostering close constructive relationships with other bodies"

Go figure!

i have a very very good final salary scheme and recently remembered i had an old private pension that i stopped paying into some 13 years ago as when i joined my new company they would not allow me to transfer my existing private pension over. this frozen private pension i have is worth at the moment a transfer value of about £38,000, so i too looked into pensionbacked loans and got an email from

Dominic Hilton
Pension Backed Loan
Suite 7, Pine Court
36 Gervis Road
Bournemouth
BH1 3DH

i must admit it all sounded really good as i was offered about 20% which is about £7500, which to be honest it £7500 i have got at the moment..!!   its a shame really i cant do anything else with this frozen private pension i have, seems a wast as ive been toild if i wait until im 55 (46now)  i could probably take about £9000 out then but hey £7500 now would be way better for me than waiting 9 yrears... anything else i can do with this guys
cheers

Have you read any of the posts on here?  May I suggest that before you lose the money you have you check with HMRC and an independent financial advisor.  There are many pitfalls in taking up these offers, one of them being that the Revenue will need to know as they will want a piece of it.

yes ive been reading the posts and i must admit it does all sound too good to be true.. will probably give it a miss, only another 9 years to wait then i can take out the possible £9000 and blow the lot..suppose i have to bide my time..

Someone got arrested last week in relation to this... anyone know who it was??

2 years later...

http://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/new-warning- ... -110115320.html

can't these companies (like pension backed loans above) be shut down? Seems wrong that clients are pushed into breaking rules they don't know about and then it's the clients that get the fines.

New warning: Beware the rip-off merchants preying on your pension

An advance on pension savings can seem a godsend for the cash-strapped, but schemes offering to unlock your money early have a deadly sting in the tail that can leave people with nothing in retirement.

The Pensions Regulator:
The stark new warning issued by the pensions regulator - following a massive rise in people being ripped off when trying to unlock their pension fund

By law, savers are not allowed to access pension money before the age of 55, but in the past couple of years a growing number of companies have found ways to get around the rules.

The firms appeal to cash-strapped households and make contact through unsolicited calls or texts, usually offering access to part of their money as a lump sum payment.

The unscrupulous companies take their cut through fees that can amount to half of the overall pension value. Those who follow through with the scheme are also hit with charges from HMRC for breaking the rules.

Any remaining savings are likely to be invested in highly risky, unregulated investments, often based overseas. As a result, people who use the schemes are usually stripped of any money to live on in retirement.

The FSA’s head of financial crime, Sharon Campbell, said: "Savers should be very wary of pension release schemes which often carry punitive, hidden rates of commission and where the promised investments may just be scams. They could end up losing all of their hard-earned pension.”

“Investors are very often left even worse off than they were before they started,” said Tom McPhail, head of pensions research at Hargreaves Lansdown.

“Pension unlocking companies pose a real risk to unwary investors, causing additional hardship and misery to people who are very often in a difficult financial position to start with. Hopefully the measures now being introduced will at least cut down on the number of people who fall prey to these schemes,” he added.

The burgeoning problem has forced the industry watchdog to take action.  An estimated £25 million was accessed early at the start of 2010, but this figure leapt to £200 million by the end of 2011, according to industry figures.

Pension providers and administrators will now try to intervene when people are requesting a “pension transfer” and warn of the risks. Information provided to savers will feature scorpion imagery to illustrate the deadly threat unlocking poses to pensions.

Once an investor has chosen to transfer to an unlocking scheme, it is often too late to get the money back.

Hargreaves Lansdown recently turned down requests to transfer pensions to schemes it suspected were pension unlocking and urged other administrators to do the same.

Pensions minister Steve Webb said: "Money in a pension is there for retirement and should not be released before at least the age of 55. The Government is investigating a number of schemes where firms appear to be preying on people when times are tight, and I am working closely with the pensions regulator to ensure rules are not being broken."

Pensions regulator chief executive Bill Galvin said: “There can be a huge sting in the tail for those that are tempted by the sales patter.”

Things to look out for:

•    Being approached out of the blue over the phone or via text message.
•    Pushy advisers, often unregulated, who claim to be able to help you access your pension before age 55.
•    Companies that offer a ‘loan’, ‘saving advance’ or ‘cashback’ from your pension.
•    Any reference to ‘loopholes’, overseas investments, creative or new investment techniques.

If you think you may have been a victim, or if you have information regarding pension liberation fraud, contact Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040.

Further information of the consequences of the schemes is available on The Pensions Advisory Service website.

AVAILABILITY:OVER A YEAR LEFT TO LISTEN
Duration: 30 minutes
First broadcast: Saturday 09 February 2013
Crooks are stepping up their efforts to trick middle-aged people out of their pension funds. In the last year the amount lost to these scams has doubled to an estimated total of £400 million. The scam is simple. A cold call or text invites someone to 'unlock' money from their pension before they reach 55, normally the earliest age at which they can legally get their hands on any of it. They are asked to transfer their pension fund into one opened by the crooks. That could be the last they see of the money which will disappear in charges and fake investments. If they do get any money out HM Revenue & Customs will take up to 70% of it in an unauthorised payment charge. This week the Pensions Regulator and the police are launching a new campaign to try to stop them. Paul speaks to Bill Galvin, Chief Executive of the Pensions Regulator.

LEWIS: Hello. In today’s programme, thieves are stealing £4 million a week from
the pension schemes of middle-aged people. The Pensions Regulator says he’ll act,
but will it be enough? We hear from a man whose bank refused to pay up after a fraud
just because he told his wife his PIN. Will mistakes like this be dealt with more
quickly under the new regulator who starts in April? The cost of water will rise again
in April, but water debt is growing more rapidly. What help is there with bills? And
on the eve of a major announcement on paying for care home fees, we reveal the
60,000 people in England still waiting for a past bill to be paid.

But first, crooks are stepping up their efforts to trick middle-aged people out of their
pension funds. In the last year, the amount lost to these scams has doubled to an
estimated total of £400 million. The con is simple: a cold call or text invites someone
to unlock money from their pension before they reach 55. Normally that’s the earliest
age at which they can legally get their hands on any of it. They are asked to transfer
the pension fund into one which has been opened by the crooks. That could be the last
they see of the money, which will normally disappear in charges and fake
investments. This week the Pensions Regulator and the police are launching a new
campaign to try to stop these activities with leaflets for potential victims and advice to
existing pension schemes about when they can refuse to make the transfer. Bill Galvin
is Chief Executive of the Pensions Regulator.

23 Feb 2013's MoneyBox BBC Radio 4 Programme continued to discuss the great Pension Liberation Scam with the Minister responsible for pensions, Steve Webb. Listen to the grilling Webb gets and how little the government is doing despite the £4 million a week being scammed.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01qspjg PENSION UNLOCKING
For the third week we return to the growing crime of persuading people to transfer their pension savings into recently registered pension schemes and taking huge fees for illegally letting them have some of their money back. This week - the legal aspects. Is the law adequate to help trustees stop the transfer when they suspect a scam? And if not, will the Government pass new laws to protect desperate people from the crooks - and themselves? We speak to a pensions lawyer and Pensions Minister Steve Webb.
