SCAM ALERT

Scammers are increasingly impersonating government agencies, including the CIA, FBI, and other federal authorities, to pressure victims into sending money through fraudulent schemes. These scams often involve fake checks, urgent demands, or requests to purchase Bitcoin or withdraw cash.

Watch for These Red Flags:
- Being told to “keep part of the money”
- Requests to buy Bitcoin or use a Bitcoin ATM
- Urgent, secretive, or high-pressure instructions
- Threats involving law enforcement or government agencies
- Requests to lie to your financial institution

Important Reminders:
- Government agencies will NEVER ask you to send Bitcoin or transfer money through cryptocurrency.
- A check appearing to clear your account does NOT guarantee it is legitimate.
- If something feels suspicious or unusual, stop immediately and contact your financial institution before taking any action.

Protect yourself by staying cautious, asking questions, and verifying requests before sending money or sharing personal information.
