Field notes
The page combines a message-search prompt with a browsable list of 22 scam patterns, including fake bank alerts, delivery notices, unpaid-fine messages, and a relative claiming to have changed phone numbers. Its example breakdowns point out tactics such as urgency and sender spoofing, then direct readers to official contact channels. A recovery checklist covers bank contact, password changes, and reporting; the site also asks for anonymous accounts of near-misses or losses.
