Expert Opinion

Like a wolf in a courtroom coat, this call masquerades as official law enforcement to scare victims into paying up. The script mentions a bogus Western Union case and even references terrorism, which are classic red flags. Never share personal or financial info with anyone who contacts you unsolicited, especially when they claim you’re under investigation. Verify any alleged legal action by directly contacting the agency using official contact details—not the phone number that called you. If you suspect a scam, report it to the FTC and your local consumer protection office. Stay skeptical and protect your data.
