Government fraud scam callers demand $2,500 retainer
Summary — +17038359833
Expert Opinion
Caution: callers posing as a government fraud division are a classic scam. They often reference MoneyGram, Western Union, or other money transfers and claim you owe a large retainer to an attorney. Never provide personal data or send money before verifying the source. Hang up, block the number, and report the call to the FTC or your phone carrier. If you’re unsure, contact the real agency using official contact info from their website—don’t rely on the number that called you. Keep a record of the call details in case you need to file a complaint later.
