Stephanny Villarreal1 month agoMunicipal scam.Estafa municipal.
This morning, 16/9/2026, I received a call from a scammer who pretended to be a municipal lawyer. He had information about my property and told me that I had to make a sworn statement. Then, he sent me an email and asked me to read aloud the statement, codes, and articles, apparently to record them and use them to try to access my email. Later, he sent another email with a link which, fortunately, I did not click. When he realized I had not fallen for the scam, he got angry and threatened me with penalties related to the statement and with supposed charges of higher new municipal taxes. The logo he had after calling me appears to be from Lafise bank. I share this information to warn others and prevent them from becoming victims of this type of fraud. Esta mañana, 16/9/2026, recibí una llamada de un estafador que se hizo pasar por un abogado de la municipalidad. Tenía datos de mi propiedad y me indicó que debía realizar una declaración jurada. Luego, me envió un correo y me pidió leer en voz alta la declaración, códigos y artículos, aparentemente para grabarlos y utilizarlos para intentar acceder a mi correo. Después envió otro correo con un enlace al que, por dicha, no ingresé. Al darse cuenta de que no había caído en la estafa, se molestó y me amenazó con sanciones relacionadas con la declaración y con el supuesto cobro de nuevos impuestos municipales más altos. El logo que tenia después de haberme llamado sale ahirs como banco Lafise Comparto esta información para alertar a otras personas y evitar que sean víctimas de este tipo de fraude.

Okay, my name is Richard Lewis Bradford. I am a senior mobile automation test engineer. Let me please explain to you what is happening when someone calls you from, presumably, a municipality or tax organization or government agency, specifying that you owe money or that they want to list your penalties or taxes that you may owe. These are simply scams. What the scammer is trying to do is establish whether they have the correct person by calling you. They already have your financial information, your tax information, and your property information. They want to determine if you are, as I stated, the person they have on their list. It's a three-tier or four-tier process: 1. They call you and ask you, "Are you trying to do such-and-such and such, or are you trying to bail someone out, or is this your taxing property?" They say, "Thank you for verifying information. We're a government agency, which they usually are not." 2. They call you again and see that they already know that it is you by confirming from the first call. They go a little deeper. 3. They send you links, email links, which are phishing links designed to get you to click on certain things so they can have keyloggers. They can get your keylog information, like your bank account, your savings account, your phone number verification, and so forth and so forth. They know frequently that you are not going to change your phone number, but their number is restricted. 4. If you try to call them back, the thing to do is never answer those phone calls if they're not in your phone call log. What you need to do is get an application like Truecaller, Cloaked, or Hangup. These applications, the last two, I believe, are free and don't require any charge, and they will allow you to block your calls. You need to specify them as your original or default calling app. please don't answer any of these calls, they are scams designed to verify you at first them to call again with a more convincing methods of their scam.
