RingMyTech does not copy government alerts into a thinner article and hide the original. The safety guides cite the agencies below. If a RingMyTech page and an agency page ever disagree, follow the agency on reporting rules and follow your bank on your account.
Report and recovery
Report fraud at the FTC. Report internet crime at FBI IC3. Use IdentityTheft.gov if identity documents or accounts are involved. Use the Social Security, Medicare, and Postal Inspection pages when those organizations are being impersonated. CISA publishes practical advice on phishing and social engineering.
RingMyTech explanations
After you know which agency fits, the Scam Awareness Center and Scam help walk through the household version. The technology help guide covers the device tasks that sit next to those safety decisions.
Printable checklists
The national printable resource is the Technology Wellness checklist. It includes the five framework questions, a family list, and a suspicious-call list. Print it or save it as a PDF from the browser. Shorter lists also remain on the framework page, the parent guide, the scam page, the remote access page, and the safety guide. We are not gating those lists behind an email address.
How to read a government warning
Look for the date, the behavior being described, and the official place to report it. Skip pages that only restate the warning in more alarming words. If the advice is "call the number in the email," that advice is wrong even when the rest of the article sounds official.
RingMyTech pages exist to turn that warning into a household rule: hang up, look up the number, do not share the screen, tell one trusted person. The agency page remains the authority on how to file the report.
