Expert Opinion

Approach calls or texts from unfamiliar numbers with immediate skepticism—especially those posing as family emergencies. This pattern screams family impersonation scam, where fraudsters pretend to be a child in distress, like a broken phone or provider switch, to extract money or info. No legitimate relative would hit you up this way without prior warning. Block the number instantly, don't reply or engage, and report to authorities like the ACCC in Australia. If it feels off, verify directly through known contacts. Stay sharp; these tricks prey on emotions and evolve quickly.
