my mom literally snatched the phone out of my dads hand mid scam call
last month my dad gets a call,guy says hes from the bank, theres some issue with the account, asks for his card number and OTP to verify. dad literally starts reading it out before my mom walks in and just snatches the phone from him mid sentence(thank you mom). i wasnt even there for this, found out cause my mom called me later just to vent abt it, she was SO pissed at him lol.but ngl it kinda freaked me out after,like what if she wasnt home that day. what then?
been reading up since and its way worse than i thought tbh, theres this whole "digital arrest" thing now where scammers pose as cops/cbi and keep ppl on video call for HOURS till they panic and just transfer the money. saw a few news articles of people losing lakhs like this and its insane. anyway just wondering if this happened to anyone elses parents too, especially if ur not around to catch it in time. what happened in ur case and how'd u even find out.
