What did they say?

Who they claimed to be, what they want you to do, the number if you have it. If they're still on the line, it's fine to say 'hold on' and come back.

Why this exists

Nobody hangs up on the government. That's the whole trick.

Imposter calls — Social Security, Medicare, the bank, a grandchild — cost Americans $3.5 billion last year. Caller ID can show any number the scammer types in. The only defence that works live is a script you already have.

How it works

Hold. Check. Read the script.

01

Put them on hold

Say 'hold on' — a real agency will wait; a scammer will push. Describe the call here.

02

Get the verdict

Scam, suspicious, or probably real — with the red flags quoted from what they said and the one thing no real caller ever asks for.

03

Read the script

Short, polite, final. Then hang up and call the real number on your card or statement. On the family plan, a note goes to your son or daughter too.
