You probably get phone calls, texts, or emails every day from bad actors looking to scam you out of your money. The Better Business Bureau’s new report shows about six in 10 people say they lost money to some kind of scam in 2023 — a double-digit increase from 2022. Neesha Hothi from the bureau says investment and cryptocurrency transactions are the riskiest for scams. “We’ve all seen it. Whether it’s on social media or email, someone gives you a too-good-to-be-true investment opportunity. You think there’s low risk, high reward, which by the way, there’s no such thing, and so you fall for those,” Hothi explained.
