The “Can You Hear Me Now” Phone Scam
There is a new phone scam going around that could cause you plenty of headaches!
According to several sources, there is a new phone scam where the caller will ask if you can hear them. If you say Yes, you could be in trouble!
The reason why? They are recording you saying "Yes" . . . so they can play that back when they use your stolen credit card number to buy something and the credit card company calls to confirm the purchase.
So if you get a call that starts off with "Can you hear me?" just hang up, or if you think it it is a legitimate call, don't say "Yes" say something like, "I can hear you." or "You are coming in loud and clear"
If you do get a call like this, you should report it to your local police department and your local Better Business Bureau
