Couple lose savings to fake FBI caller who sent a courier
According to CP24, an Illinois couple say a caller posing as an FBI agent had the wife withdraw $18,400 in cash while he stayed on the phone. She then handed it to a man in a black SUV at a second bank branch. The caller kept her on the line and told her to withdraw a large amount of cash. Hang up and call your bank or the agency on a number you have looked up yourself. QuietGuard lets only people you trust ring your phone, so unknown callers stay quiet, though it cannot replace talking to family or your bank.
