💀 Scammy Skeleton is wrapping up EastRise Scam Awareness Month with one last reminder about the anatomy of a scam. Many scams follow the same spooky script...
🦴 Initial Contact - A text, call, email, or social message appears out of nowhere and could even impersonate another business or law enforcement.
🦴 Trust Building - The scammer acts friendly and builds confidence before making their move.
🦴 Call to Action - Suddenly there's an urgent request for money, personal information, or account access.
🦴 Execution/Compromise - A quick decision can lead to stolen information or financial loss.
If something feels off, always stop, research, and verify your source to make sure it's trusted before making a decision. The only thing that should be scary this season is the skeleton.
