【有線新聞】長者墮入投資騙案有增加，警方今年首季接到1,200宗長者騙案，比去年同期多三成，當中四分一墮入投資騙局，損失超過3億元。 A女士（化名）：「會分享一些他的生活照片或者社交情況的動向，都會分享，當然不是太深入，但這些過程令我增加信心，讓我覺得是真。」60多歲的A女士交的這位朋友去年在facebook結識，他在帳戶自稱是「股評人」，隨後還邀請A女士加入通訊群組，定期分享投資信息，建議A女士買入某隻股票，聲稱回報可觀。誰知買入後一兩日，股價就急跌兩成，之後就聲稱會全額補償，要求A女士將投資的餘額轉至傀儡戶口，A女士最終損失過百萬元。 警方稱，今年首季有超過1,200名長者懷疑受騙報案，比去年同期多三成。超過300人涉及投資騙案，合共損失達3.3億元。相信騙徒是看準長者有較多儲蓄和退休金，對網上信息的警覺性亦較低。 商業罪案調查科警司李蔚詩：「受害人觀看虛假投資廣告，或者虛假投資建議片段，被誘導加入WhatsApp群組，而這個WhatsApp群組，全部都是假成員，包括虛假投資專家，每日分享賺錢成果的假成員，營造一個人人獲利的現象，受害人開始動心的時候，有人教唆他一起投資。」 警方聯同金管局和證監會打擊這類投資騙案，包括將警方情報結合零售銀行的開戶數據，識別傀儡戶口。現有的銀行訊息交換平台亦再加入更多零售銀行，分享可疑交易信息，涵蓋全港超過九成的銀行戶口。

Bessent On Iran: "We Are Suffocating The Regime" Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent joined Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo to discuss how the Trump administration is " suffocating " Iran with economic and financial pressure amid an ongoing U.S. military blockade of the Hormuz chokepoint. " We are running a marathon over the past 12 months, and now we are sprinting toward the finish line"" Bessent told Bartiromo earlier this morning. Bessent explained how the U.S. maximum pressure campaign on Tehran has become " a real economic blockade ," claiming the regime is "not able to pay their soldiers" and that oil infrastructure is quickly deteriorating, as crude oil storage quickly rises while export channels remain shuttered. Bessent warned that Iran may have to start shutting in oil wells within the next week as exports remain constrained. Bessent on Iran: "We are suffocating the regime.

"It hasn't been maintained, again because of our decades-long sanctions against them." Bessent said no tankers are transiting the critical waterway from the Iranian side, " and we have increased the pressure on anyone trying to remit money into Iran to help the IRGC ," referring to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images News Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said U.S. financial institutions and technology companies are strengthening defenses against emerging artificial intelligence threats, including the possibility that AI tools could be used to penetrate bank accounts and other critical systems. “We’re going to make sure that things stay safe,” Bessent said on Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures . His comments come after Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell held an unscheduled meeting in Washington in April with major Wall Street executives to discuss rising cyber risks tied to rapid advances in artificial intelligence, including concerns surrounding a new model released by Anthropic ( ANTHRO ). “What we’ve had in the past month was a step change in the power of one large language model, but we’re going to see it from the other AI companies,” Bessent said. He said policymakers must strike a balance between encouraging private-sector innovation that helps the U.S. stay ahead of rival nations and malicious actors, while also ensuring government oversight focused on “maintaining safety.” Bessent didn't outline specific actions being taken by banks or regulators. When asked whether consumers should worry about AI being used to hack their bank accounts, Bessent replied: “You should.” More on JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, etc. Bank of America: How I Double The Average Dividend Yield Bank of America Preferreds Pair Trade Idea JPMorgan Preferreds Pair Trade Idea Dividend Roundup: Apple, Citigroup, General Motors, and more Ares Management, JPMorgan help finance Apollo's $800M investment in GoodLife - report

美国参议院民主党领袖舒默呼吁众议院与白宫效仿参议院，对快速发展的预测市场交易实施禁令。 舒默于周日发表声明称：“代表公众的议员及工作人员，绝不能参与有关战争、经济危机或选举的投注。仅凭‘议员投票可能受投注影响’这一可能性，就足以彻底杜绝此类行为。” 美国参议院上周四全票通过禁令，禁止议员及工作人员参与预测市场交易。 此前，一名美军士兵被控利用机密信息在平台交易牟利，引发外界对该类平台内幕交易风险的担忧。参议院此项规则修改已立即生效。 责任编辑：李桐

Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer called on the House of Representatives and the White House to follow the Senate’s lead by imposing a ban on trading in fast-growing prediction markets. “Members and staff representing the public should never be able to gamble on wars, on economic crises or on elections,” Schumer said in a statement on Sunday. “The very possibility that a member’s vote could be influenced by a bet is reason enough to slam this door shut.” The Senate voted unanimously on Thursday to ban its members and staff from trading on prediction markets, highlighting concerns about insider trading on the platforms after a US soldier was accused of using classified information to profit from trades . The Senate rule change took effect immediately.

The soldier, stationed at Fort Bragg in Fayetteville, North Carolina, pleaded not guilty to the charge.
