FBI Boston warns of agent impersonation scam

The FBI Boston is issuing warnings regarding a new agent impersonation scam targeting individuals. Fraudsters spoof the official FBI Boston main number and falsely claim that the victim's information was used to purchase illegal firearms. To continue the investigation, scammers encourage victims to move the conversation to an encrypted application. A couple from Manchester has already fallen victim to this scheme, highlighting the risks associated with these deceptive tactics used by criminals in New England.
