Eight rules before you pay
- 1If you did not start the conversation, do not send money from it.
- 2Leave their text, email, or call. Use a number or website you already trust.
- 3No bank, police department, court, or utility takes payment by gift card, cryptocurrency, or a courier.
- 4A bank will never ask you to move your money to protect it.
- 5Do not share a password, a one-time code, or a recovery phrase.
- 6Do not tap an unexpected link or scan a QR code you did not expect.
- 7A voice that sounds like family is not proof. Hang up and call the number saved in your phone.
- 8Anyone who offers to recover your money for a fee is a second scam.
