The Dangerous 7 Scams

This video explains seven scams that are hitting people hard right now: investment scams and crypto “pig butchering,” tech support scams, romance scams, government impersonation (fake IRS, Social Security, and FBI calls), family emergency AI scams and grandparent scams, recovery scams that charge a fee to “get your money back,” and fake job scams / work-from-home task scams. You will see how each scam works, what it did to real people, and the steps that stop it before a dollar moves. A real job does not ask you to pay. A real agency will not send a courier for gold or cash. A voice that sounds like family is still a test. If this already happened, call your bank the same day. Then report the scam to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov and to the FBI’s IC3 at ic3.gov. You can also call AARP Fraud Watch at 877-908-3360.
