On this episode of our podcast, we’ll define fraud, explain why and how the FBI investigates it, share tips for protecting yourself from scammers, and teach you how to report suspected frauds and scams to the Bureau. For a full transcript and additional resources, visit fbi.gov/news/podcasts.

One of the most common tactics scammers employ is a false sense of urgency or isolation. For this reason, the FBI’s awareness campaign urges the public to “Take A Beat”: resist pressure to act quickly, pause for a moment, and assess the situation. Talk to parents, grandparents, children, and other loved ones about fraud and how to identify the warning signs of a scam. Learn more at fbi.gov/scams.
