When scammers call pretending to be police officers, the very first thing they order you to do is lock your door and stay completely alone.<\/p>\n
They do this because fear only works in the dark. The moment you talk to another human being, their scam falls apart.<\/p>\n
Digital arrest scammers use the exact same trick on adults. They tell you: ‘This is a top-secret national investigation. If your spouse or child walks into the room, they will go to jail too.’<\/p>\n
They say this so nobody can hear their ridiculous demands and tell you to hang up the phone.<\/p>\n
Here is what you should always do if someone orders you to stay on a secret call:<\/p>\n
Rule 1: Open the door immediately and call someone you trust into the room.<\/p>\n
Rule 2: Never transfer money while on a phone call. no matter how angry the person sounds.<\/p>\n
