Originally Published 4 months ago — by Forbes
The FBI warns of a surge in 'phantom hacker' scams where attackers impersonate bank officials to trick victims, especially seniors, into installing malicious software that allows hackers to steal money. The key advice is to never install software or grant control to unknown callers, and to involve trusted family members in financial and device security measures to prevent scams.
