As this huckster is trying to get a couple to put money into his investment firm, everything starts falling apart: his beard, his sign, even his wall!

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission says that most scams are not this easy to spot and urges aspiring investors to visit Investor.gov to make sure they are dealing with registered professionals.
