Complete Missile Guidance Systems, Inc. does not exist. It is a complete fabrication, posted to alert investors to potential online frauds, and brought to you by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the North American Securities Administrators Association, and the Federal Trade Commission.

It pays to research each investment opportunity thoroughly and ask questions - about the company itself and the person or entity promoting it. The federal securities laws require all but the smallest public companies to file reports with the SEC. These reports, which you can search on our website, contain a treasure trove of information about the company's management, business and financial condition. If you can't find company filings, contact your state securities regulator to find out if they have any information.

Unsolicited e-mails and faxes

Complete's website talks about unsolicited faxes and e-mails with "rumors" about the company. Scam artists use bulletin board postings, faxes and spam e-mails to try to create or keep in play rumors about a company in order to drive the stock price. Once the stock goes up, they sell out. Crooks try hard to make these communications look legitimate, in order to move the stock price. Be certain to check out very carefully any information you receive from unsolicited sources, because it may be completely unreliable or false.

Governmental Seals and Approvals

Complete Missile Guidance Systems, Inc. claims to have contracts with a non-existent U.S. government agency, the "U.S. Missile Commission." Any suggestion that a government agency has sponsored, recommended, or approved of any private company should be a red flag to investors! Crooks are willing to lie to make you think their scheme is legitimate. Fake Seals and Phony Numbers: How Fraudsters Try to Look Legit details how these scams work.

"Guaranteed Returns" Aren't

Complete guarantees investors 20% returns yearly. Unfortunately, no investment return is ever "guaranteed," and the higher the potential return, the higher the potential risk. Crooks love to use words like "guaranteed" with their high return calculations, because they want you to believe your money will be safe. We firmly believe that if a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
