Beth receives a phone call and a follow-up message on her computer from a man claiming he's from Dell. The message is strong: Her bank account is being hacked by Russians, and if she doesn't pay up, they'll steal even more of her money. Typically, Beth is able to pick up on scams, but Dell is a client she works with regularly — so her guard is down. The "Dell" representative tells her that she owes $3,998. "He gives me an address. I write the check out and mail it." After quickly learning it was a scam, Beth is heartbroken and embarrassed. However, thanks to local law enforcement, Beth is able to recover all her money!
