Protecting You From Fraud

Security is a team effort. We help you stay protected:

  • Report suspicious activity to: info@irafinancial.com

  • Be alert for phishing emails, texts, or websites that look similar to ours.

A Platform Built on Resilience

Learning From the 2022 Incident

In 2022, IRA Financial was targeted in a criminal cyberattack that affected some crypto accounts. We immediately partnered with federal law enforcement, cybersecurity experts, and custodial partners.

The outcome was clear and positive. The FBI identified and arrested the individual responsible, and all affected cryptocurrency assets were fully recovered.

A Stronger, More Secure IRA Financial

Since then, we have taken major steps to strengthen your protection:

  • Moved our crypto platform to Bitstamp, a globally regulated exchange known for institutional-grade security
  • Upgraded authentication and internal access controls
  • Deployed real-time monitoring and threat detection tools
  • Expanded external security audits and risk oversight
Our Commitment to You

The 2022 incident was a turning point. We responded with transparency, accountability, and action. Today, our platform is stronger than ever, backed by smarter technology, more secure custodial partnerships, and a deep commitment to your safety.

We will keep investing in the protections that help keep your retirement secure.

I have been a client of IRA Financial for several years and I really love them. I've worked with other companies, and they just were not as easy to work with. I appreciate being able to get somebody on the phone and getting help with taxes. Just everything has been so easy to work with. I have, and do, recommend them to anyone thinking about self-directed investing.

I've looked at all of the participants in this space and IRA Financial was the clear choice. They were the easiest to work with, answered all my questions and concerns prior to me taking the steps to open the account. The process is straight forward and there are no surprises. My investments in Real Estate have been largely successful. IRA Financial is professional, has great support, and put the customer in the driver's seat.

Adam and his team have created a culture of raving fans, and I’m truly grateful to be one of them. Being treated like family is absolutely priceless.
