I consider myself your mentor. And as your mentor, I’ve made it my mission to not only help you build wealth, but also keep that wealth safe from disgusting scammers.
That’s why I’ve put together these Midas Legacy scam alerts for you to stay ahead of the curve.
This specific alert is focused on keeping your retirement safe from an all-too common phone call scam that’s been spreading across the nation.
As our security in America consistently increases, the “good” scammers constantly find ways to adapt and sidestep new security features.
These scammers started off by trying to steal cash out of your wallet, then they moved onto attempting unauthorized withdrawals from your bank.
When technology grew more prevalent, and security tightened even more, they found a way to steal your credit cards through various methods.
Then technology really gave these scammers the upper hand. They were able to scan your credit card information without your card ever leaving your pocket.
They’re very smart, but this latest retirement scam has to be the worst I’ve ever seen… PLUS, it’s extremely illegal!
But once your money has been stolen, it’s gone for good.
That’s why I’m here to protect you against these frauds, so they leave you and your money alone.
The latest retirement scam has these scammers posing to work for the Social Security Administration.
They’ve been calling people on the phone, and taking all of their money in the blink of an eye.
You’ve probably had one of these phone calls recently.
According to the AARP Fraud Network, there’s a specific way of identifying these fraud phone calls:
- The calls usually come from a “323” area code.
Please note: The Social Security Administration headquarters is located in Maryland and has a toll-free “1-800” number.
- The caller says they are from the Social Security Administration.
- The caller will say something like: “You’re due a cost-of-living adjustment increase in your social security benefit.”
- The caller will then try to “verify” your social security number, name, date of birth, and any other personal information (most of which they can retrieve from a simple internet search).
- If the scammer succeeds, they then make changes to your direct-deposit, address, and phone number on file with the real Social Security Administration.
I know, this all sounds horrifying, but there’s one sentence that will stop these scammers in their tracks…
“Please send me a letter.”
I know it seems so simple, and they will push you for that information if they get you on the phone, but when it comes to anything to do with your private information, always request a letter.
By doing this, the scammer will have nowhere to turn and then move onto the next person.
Government agencies use letters to contact you about this sort of information, and if they don’t, they will be happy to do so upon request.
Don’t get caught up in this latest scam…
Remember, all it takes to protect yourself is the single sentence: “Please send me a letter.”
