Never Say Yes to Unknown Callers to Stop Phone Scams
Believe it or not, there is one word that if spoken to an unknown caller could make you the victim of a fraud. I will tell you that word very soon. If you recieve a phone call from an unknown caller, you should avoid giving out personal information such as your social security number, bank and financial account info, and passwords. Any of the credentials you type to login to an app or a website should never be repeated over the phone. Use common sense and do not divulge anything that you know is personal information.
