Expert Opinion

Watch out for calls that demand immediate payment or threaten arrest while claiming to be from the Treasury or IRS. These recordings often feature a heavily accented male voice, use legal jargon, and repeat the same script across multiple area codes. Never provide personal or financial information to unsolicited callers, and avoid calling the number back. If you receive such a message, hang up, block the number, and consider reporting it to the FCC or your local consumer protection agency. Document the call details, including the caller ID and any recorded messages, to help authorities track the scam patterns.
