Don’t Get Scammed Out of Your Hard-Earned Money - WCPO.com
A woman named Lynn was scammed out of $9,100, and shared her story in an article by John Matarese. She did this as a warning to you that it can happen to anyone. Be vigilant when answering your phone. Never say “yes” if a caller asks whether your name is correct; this could be risky.
The first sign that the call is a scam is an urgent demand for payment. Scammers act quickly, contacting you by text, phone, or email. Do not respond or provide any information. If you feel uncertain—even if the message or call seems legitimate—immediately visit the official website or contact the company directly. Scammers may impersonate Social Security, the IRS, your bank, or even your local Sheriff’s department, threatening you with arrest or other severe actions. Stay alert and do not fall for their threats.
Stay vigilant! At any moment, you or your loved ones could be targeted. Watch out for elderly friends and family, as they are their favorite victims.
