hi Martin,
been waiting to ask this question for quite sometimes and happens you mentioned it here. What does “boiler room” fraudster means?
Also, i come across another term called “boiler-plate” clause. What is “boiler-plate” clause?
Hope to learn something new. Thanks.

Not too applicable on boiler plate.

Replyfrom wiki, boiler room sounds like telemarketing salespeople
while boiler plate somewhat akin to standard legal language used in most financial brochures.
is my interpretation correct?
ReplyThe telemarketing salespeople part is correct as that is how the scammers get their victims. Through the phone.
boiler-plate is new to me too so I can’t really comment.
