DAY 7: Scams & Urgency

One of the biggest warning signs of a scam is pressure to act immediately. Scammers often create a false sense of urgency by using fear, threats, or time limits to keep you from slowing down and thinking through the situation.

They may claim your account is in danger, a loved one is in trouble, or that you must make an immediate payment to avoid consequences.

Take a moment to pause and verify the information. Do not provide personal or financial information to someone pressuring you for a quick decision. If something feels urgent and unexpected, slow down and take the time to confirm it is legitimate.

Before you pay or send information, bring in a second set of eyes. Call a trusted friend or family member to talk through the situation.

If you are still unsure or 817-473-0211, or dial 911 if you believe you are in immediate danger or a crime is actively occurring. Our officers are always here to help you check it out and protect your hard-earned money.

XFRA by SPAN has launched a pilot program that places air-conditioner-sized, liquid-cooled AI computing units at homes. The system uses electrical capacity that would otherwise go unused, creating a network of small data centers instead of relying solely on massive centralized facilities.

Would you consider allowing one of these units to be installed at your home?
