A plain white studio. No music. A single chair.

MARGARET sits, hands folded, looking straight into the lens.

MARGARET

(calm, direct)

He said he was from my bank. He knew my name. He knew my street.

(beat)

He said there was a problem with my account and I had to move my money right now to keep it safe.

Cut. RAY sits in the same chair.

RAY

(matter of fact)

Text message. Said my card was frozen. Had a link. I was busy. I almost clicked it.

Cut back to MARGARET.

MARGARET

(a small shake of the head)

I taught fourth grade for thirty years. I'm not a foolish woman.

(beat)

And I had my purse open.

Cut to RAY.

RAY

What stopped me was one thing. Oakhollow told me they'd never do that.

Cut to MARGARET.

MARGARET

(steady)

Your bank will never call and ask you to move your money. Never.

(leaning in slightly)

So I hung up. And I called the number on the back of my card.

Black screen. White text appears line by line.

ANNOUNCER

(even, unhurried, clear)

If someone calls, texts, or emails asking you to move money, share a code, or click a link, stop.

(beat)

Hang up. Call the number on your card.

(beat)

Oakhollow Bank will never rush you.

Oakhollow Bank logo. Small and plain.

ANNOUNCER

Oakhollow Bank. Slow down. We're not going anywhere.
