Securities scams on the rise in Kentucky From Tasha Stewart Commonwealth of Kentucky Public Protection Cabinet, DFI Frankfort, KY - Christmas is coming, but so are fraudsters. As Kentuckians prepare for the holiday season, the Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) wants to alert citizens about an increase in securities-related scams.
