What is a Digital Arrest Scam?
A digital arrest scam is a type of cyber fraud in which criminals impersonate police officers, government officials, judges, investigators, or other authorities. They may falsely claim that the victim is involved in a criminal case, money laundering, illegal activity, or another offence.
