Trusted Information

Three rules that stop most scams
Slow down. Scammers create panic so you can't think. It's always okay to hang up.
Never pay with gift cards, wires, or crypto. No real company or agency ever asks for these.
Verify yourself. Call back on a number you already have, or ask a family member first.
