There are many fraud methods, but one simple step can protect your money
Some people think, “I know these tricks. I wouldn’t fall for such scams.”
However, fraudsters are extremely skilled conversationalists, and many people lose their composure and judgment while listening. Always take preventive measures to protect yourself and your family’s assets.
Set Your Phone to Answering Machine Mode
- Even when you are at home, set your phone to answering machine mode and avoid answering unknown calls.
- A recommended message:
“To prevent fraud, this phone is set to answering machine mode even when we are home, and all calls are recorded for security purposes.”
Check the Caller’s Number Before Answering
- Use a caller ID service to confirm the caller before picking up the phone.
