Capital One scam call—how to protect yourself!

Expert Opinion
Like a wolf in a banker’s coat, the call from +19723646445 pretends to be Capital One and spins a story of identity theft to coax personal data. The script pulls a familiar trick: confirming a relative’s Social Security digits to gain trust, then slipping into a request for verification. Never share SSN, account numbers, or passwords on unsolicited calls, even if the caller seems to know details. Hang up, independently call the institution using a number from your statement or website, and report the incident to the FTC or your carrier’s fraud line. Enable call‑blocking features and stay skeptical of urgent “security” warnings.
