The Digital Arrest scam begins with a frantic call. Someone claims a high-profile criminal used your identity. A caller poses as a federal agent and tells you a “Digital Arrest” warrant exists in your name.
To avoid jail, they demand you stay on a FaceTime or Zoom call for hours or even days. This is a cold, calculated psychological trap. It is designed to isolate you from your family and your money. Understanding this deception is your only real defense.
