Monetary Gold is helping sound the alarm alongside New Jersey officials and law enforcement in a public safety warning about precious metals courier scams targeting seniors, retirees, and families.

No government agency, law enforcement officer, bank, or legitimate precious metals company will ever instruct you to purchase gold, buy silver, withdraw retirement funds, or hand valuables to a courier at your home.

Why Monetary Gold Is Speaking Out

Monetary Gold became involved after learning that bad actors had improperly used the company’s name while attempting to deceive a consumer. Monetary Gold cooperated with law enforcement, and the individuals involved were later apprehended.

For Monetary Gold, this is bigger than one incident. It is about raising the standard for what responsible companies in the precious metals industry should be willing to do when scammers misuse trust, fear, and confusion to harm consumers.

For more than 25 years, Monetary Gold has believed credibility must be earned through education, transparency, and responsible customer service. In an industry where trust matters, consumers should be cautious about who they listen to, who they verify, and who they allow to guide conversations involving gold, silver, retirement funds, or personal assets.

Consumers and families should watch for red flags, including:

  • Someone claiming to represent a government agency, law enforcement office, bank, financial institution, or trusted company
  • Instructions to purchase gold, silver, or precious metals to “protect” assets
  • Demands to liquidate retirement accounts, withdraw cash, or move funds immediately
  • Requests to hand cash, gold, silver, jewelry, or valuables to a courier
  • Instructions to keep the matter secret from family members, financial professionals, or local authorities
  • Any situation driven by fear, urgency, isolation, or pressure
