Do NOT Get Caugth in his TRAP!
Fraudulent calls from delinquents / extortionists trap humble people on a daily basis. Be aware of the tricks they use. Here are some examples:
-
I’m from (X TV or Radio station) and you have won a car and/or money!

MOM! HELP ME!, I’m inside a truck (says a crying voice)!!
They say they have your child and they need X$s (ransom) in order to not kill him/her. We want $1,500 or we’ll cut off his/her finger and send it to you and we’ll keep cutting them off until you send the money or we’ll kill him/her. You might say I don’t have that much money and they’ll say> How much money do you have?
