ALT 🚨 SCAM ALERT: The “Bank Investigator” Trick 🚨 Scammers are pretending to be bank investigators or fraud officers — and they sound convincing. They’ll claim there’s suspicious activity on your account and ask for your help to “catch a criminal.” But here’s the truth — they’re the criminals. 💰 How the Scam Works: ⚠️ You get a call, text, or email from someone claiming to be from your bank or even the police. ⚠️ They’ll ask you to move your money, share your card or PIN, or hand over cash “for investigation.” ⚠️ They’ll tell you there are fraud alert charges on your card and need to investigate it. ⚠️ They may even spoof real phone numbers to appear legitimate. 🚫 Don’t Fall for It: ✅ Banks and police will never ask for your banking information, PIN, or to move your money. ✅ Hang up and call your bank directly using the number on the back of your card. ✅ Report suspicious calls to your local police and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre. 💡 Scammers prey on fear and urgency - Stay calm
