This literally just happened to me!!!
🚨 SCAM ALERT – PLEASE READ & SHARE 🚨
We want to make the public aware of a fraud/scam involving fake “civil process,” fake federal paperwork, and kiosk/Bitcoin payment instructions being sent to people to scare them into paying money.
Scammers are using documents and images that may appear “official” and may include:
- Fake Department of Justice / federal-looking paperwork
- Fake court or suppression orders
- Fake civil process manuals
- Instructions telling you to pay through a Bitcoin kiosk, crypto deposit, or “secure kiosk”
- Threats of arrest if payment is not made immediately
- Demands to stay on the phone while traveling to a kiosk or ATM
⚠️ IMPORTANT:
Law enforcement, courts, and government agencies will NOT require you to pay warrants, bonds, fines, or legal fees through Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, kiosks, gift cards, or cash deposits.
# # # 🚩 RED FLAGS OF THIS SCAM:
- They tell you not to hang up
- They tell you to keep the matter confidential
- They claim there is a warrant for your arrest
- They pressure you to go to a Bitcoin ATM / kiosk
- They send fake-looking “official” paperwork to appear legitimate
- They demand immediate payment to avoid arrest
# # # ✅ WHAT YOU SHOULD DO:
- Do NOT send money
- Do NOT scan QR codes
- Do NOT deposit Bitcoin or cryptocurrency
- Do NOT provide personal or banking information
- Hang up immediately
- Contact your local law enforcement agency or court directly using a verified phone number
# # # 📢 REMEMBER:
If someone is demanding payment by Bitcoin, kiosk, or cryptocurrency to avoid arrest IT IS A SCAM.
Please help protect others by sharing this post, especially with family members, elderly relatives, and anyone who may be vulnerable to scam calls.
