📲 Got a DM from the “FBI” on Telegram?
🚨 Did someone named “Jaimie Quin” claim they run IC3?

⚠️ It’s a scam. Full stop.

The FBI just issued an alert warning the public:
They are NOT direct messaging victims on Telegram or any other social media app.

A scammer posing as “Jaimie Quin” is pretending to be the head of the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) — and reaching out to individuals claiming they’ve been hacked or need help.

🚫 It’s a fraudulent scheme designed to gain your trust… and steal your info or money.

🔐 Remember:
✅ The FBI does NOT initiate contact through social apps
✅ IC3 communications never happen via Telegram
✅ Always verify claims through official .gov websites

Don’t get duped by a fake badge.
 Stay informed. Stay protected. 🛡️

📬 Would you fall for a fake Google subpoena?
🛡️ What if it passed every security check — and looked 100% real?

🚨 A new phishing tactic is slipping past traditional defenses — and it’s terrifyingly convincing.

🕵️‍♂️ Recent reports reveal cybercriminals are sending fake emails that mimic legal subpoenas from Google.
✅ No misspellings
✅ No suspicious links
✅ No obvious red flags

They’re polished.
They pass filters.
And they’re designed to fool even the cautious.

📌 These emails aren’t just phishing — they’re weaponized impersonation.

🔐 How to protect yourself:

• Verify any legal-sounding email with the sender independently
• Don’t click on attachments or links unless confirmed legitimate
• Report suspicious emails to your IT/security team immediately

The phishing game has leveled up.
 So must your awareness. 👁️‍🗨️
