Expert Opinion

?Ever wondered why a call pretending to be a credit agency asks about a deceased relative? The pattern fits classic phishing scams that harvest personal details for identity theft or fraudulent estate claims. Callers often refuse to give a name, use urgent language, and disappear when pressed. If you receive such a call, hang up immediately, block the number, and never confirm any information. Report the incident to the FTC or your local consumer protection agency, and consider placing a freeze on credit reports. Stay skeptical of unsolicited credit‑related inquiries and verify any request through official channels.
