Guard your personal data by treating unexpected calls as potential threats. Scammers often masquerade as familiar services like DoorDash to trick you into revealing bank information. Never share account numbers, passwords, or verification codes over the phone, especially if the caller asks for immediate action. Verify the source by logging into the official app or website independently, not through links or numbers provided in the call. Enable two‑factor authentication on financial accounts and consider a credit freeze if you suspect exposure. Report suspicious numbers to your carrier and the FTC to help curb scam activity.
The method by which they operate is unclear, and it's frustrating that more information about the entities behind these calls is not being shared.
