The point about moving fast cannot be overstated. I know someone who waited two weeks before reporting a fraudulent agent because they kept hoping it was a misunderstanding. By the time they filed a report, the person had changed their number, vacated their office, and moved on to other victims. The moment you confirm fraud, every hour counts.
