Reconstruct exactly what the caller did

    Tech-support and government-impersonation scams come in many shapes. The recovery path is very different for 'they were on my screen' vs 'I shared codes' vs 'I paid them'.

    Map your exposure

      • Just answered the call → low risk, treat as a near-miss
      • Shared codes/passwords → account compromise track
      • Let them connect → device compromise track
      • Paid them → financial fraud track too
