Did someone call, text, or email and say you’ll be in trouble if you don’t pay @CFTC immediately and in a specific way? That’s a government imposter. No one from the CFTC will ever demand payment with gift cards, wire transfers, or cryptocurrency. Only a scammer will. Learn more:

Beware of government imposters. If someone says they’re from @CFTC and tells you to move your money, it’s an imposter scam. No one from the CFTC will ever tell you that your money isn’t safe and you must move it to “protect it.” Learn more: ejcc.acl.gov/imposters#Stop… #WEAAD
