Somebody tries to get you to give out information that will allow them to somehow get into your bank accounts and you know your credit cards by getting information from you.

You take that information and essentially use it to try to open up, do bank accounts, take out different

loans, essentially ruin your credit history. Hello and

welcome to Best Case Worst Case.

This is Jim Clementi, retired FBI,
