No Help From Goverment Regulatory Bodies, Cops Either Don’t Care Or Are, Woefully, Uneducated…
There are no depths to which these scumbags will not dive, in their effort to steal other people’s money. Frankly, it has got to the point where I will no longer accept calls from my bank or, in fact, any other institution. If it is important, they will leave a voice mail.
I recommend that we all do the same. Keep in mind, this is also true of text messages, emails and even snail mail. It is in your best interest to verify, re-verify and/or visit your bank, in person.
Paypal, Microsoft, Norton, insurance, government agencies..you name the company and there is a scam operating.
The government is of no help, the banks don’t want legislation and so government refuse to act, the banks do nothing but victim blame and the cops? Forget it. Cyber fraud is totally out of their capacity. So? How to protect yourself? Sadly, trust nobody. NEVER, EVER, EVER, give out any personal information via phone, text or email, in fact, approach snail mail with the utmost caution.
