To everyone suggesting to silence unknown callers, most of these scams come through email or text messages, and the victim is tricked into calling the scammer.
Best defense: don’t ever call a phone number you receive in a text or email message. Delete the message and look up your bank’s, Amazon’s, or PayPal’s phone number yourself through the company’s official web site.
Also, don’t get scared by messages about your finances…stay calm. The scammers count on you getting freaked out and doing something stupid.
