Expert Opinion
Beware of unexpected calls that pose as financial firms and demand payment. Callers often masquerade as debt collectors from companies like Western Asset, using high‑pressure tactics and false legal threats to intimidate victims. They may reference family members, employers, or alleged credit‑card debts to create urgency. Never share personal or banking information, and do not call back using the number displayed. Hang up, block the number, and verify any alleged debt directly with the legitimate institution through official channels. Reporting the number to your carrier and to consumer‑protection agencies can help curb future harassment.
