Chat with a scammer
Medium
A loved one in trouble
One evening you get a call from an unknown number. The voice sounds very much like your son's and he is upset. Talk to him and decide: is this really your loved one, or scammers?
- Reply like a normal person: ask questions, check things.
- When you are ready, press a decision button.
- In some scenarios it really is your bank — seeing a scammer everywhere is also a mistake.
Never type a real card number, code or password — not even here.
