Fake pages imitating El Tiempo
If you saw a story with the El Tiempo logo about an investment platform, it is probably a copy. El Tiempo has nothing to do with it: someone copies its design to make an ad look like news.
We have seen 32 screenshots with this design, from 12 platforms. The real El Tiempo site is eltiempo.com. If the address is different, it is not El Tiempo.
How to spot the copy
- Check the address bar: the copy lives on another domain.
- Click the menu: on the copy, sections lead nowhere or all go to the form.
- Look for the story on the outlet's real site. If it is not there, it is fake.
- A news outlet does not end a story with a form asking for your phone number.

Already signed up or paid?
- Do not pay anything else, even if they ask for "taxes" or "fees" to release your money.
- Call your bank today: block your card and request a chargeback or a transfer recall. The sooner, the better your chances.
- Do not install anything they ask for (AnyDesk, TeamViewer…). If you did, uninstall it and change your passwords.
- Report it to the police and your country’s regulator, and keep screenshots, emails and phone numbers.
- Beware of "fund recovery" companies that will contact you promising to get your money back for a fee: they are almost always a second scam.
