Yesterday afternoon, a call claimed to be from Dollar General offering a promotion. The script sounded typical of unsolicited sales outreach, and the caller didn’t verify any account details before hanging up. Treat any unexpected offers with caution—don’t share personal or payment information unless you can independently confirm the company's identity through official channels. If the call seems suspicious, block the number and report it to your carrier or the FTC. Keep a log of the call’s time, number, and any details mentioned; this can help authorities track patterns and protect others from similar outreach. Verify before you engage and stay secure.
A promotion from Dollar General was the claim made by the man I spoke to, but I ended the call.
