Jo Brewer is angry and embarrassed that she missed multiple red flags, but she wants to warn others
I don’t know if would help to enable the “Silence Unknown Callers” on your phone so that they have to leave a voicemail message before they can talk to you. That at least gives you time to consider and research what the caller is asking you to do.
OK, that’s REALLY scary.
@jo Brewer Thanks for sharing your story. That is very brave of you in so many ways. I’m glad the bulk of your savings is protected.
Jo was indeed brave to share her story, which I hope saves others far more than she lost. We need tougher penalties for these scammers.
I’m so glad you listened to your gut. The mandate for secrecy is one of the sure-fire signs of a scam.
Elyssa, I’m glad you got away just in the nick of time. What a scary story.
