FBI warns of "phantom hacker" scam: fake alerts lead to forced money transfers, costing over $1B since last year.
The FBI warns of a rising "phantom hacker" scam costing victims over $1 billion since last year.
Victims receive fake alerts about computer issues, leading to unauthorized access.
Scammers then call, posing as bank or FBI officials, using fear to trick people into transferring money to fraudulent accounts.
Unlike theft, victims move their own funds.
The FBI urges avoiding suspicious links or calls, consulting financial experts before transfers, and reporting incidents to the Internet Crime Complaint Center.
