Expert Opinion

Imagine receiving a call that claims to be from a state agency and then offers to recover stolen items. The tone often shifts from authoritative to overly helpful, a classic sign of a social‑engineering ploy. Callers like this typically try to gain trust before asking for personal info or payment. If you’re unsure, hang up and verify the number through official channels. Never share passwords, Social Security numbers, or credit‑card details with unsolicited callers. Keep a log of the call time, number, and any script snippets; this can aid in reporting the incident to consumer protection agencies.
