The NFL will release the 2024 schedules for all 32 teams at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday. Here is what we know about the Minnesota Vikings’ schedule so far.

The Vikings will play each team from the NFC West and AFC South, as well as the 2023 third-place teams from the NFC East, NFC South and AFC East. Minnesota will also see its NFC North division rivals twice, once on the road and once at U.S. Bank Stadium, as part of its 17-game schedule.

Here is the lineup of home and road opponents, listed alphabetically.

After winning the division in 2022, the Vikings took a step backward in 2023, falling to 7-10 following the loss of quarterback Kirk Cousins to a season-ending Achilles injury in Week 8. Cousins departed in free agency this spring, but the Vikings hope to have found their quarterback of the future, trading up to select Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy with the 10th pick in the 2024 draft.

Come back Wednesday night for the Vikings’ week-to-week schedule for 2024, plus season analysis and predictions.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (FOX 9) – You’ve no doubt had a run-in with them — Scammers bombarding your phone with texts and calls, often pretending to be someone they are not in an effort to steal your information and your money.

“We’ve gotten the same fake customer service call multiple times in a matter of days. The caller ID said ‘Wells Fargo’ and the number was their actual customer service, so at first, it seemed legit. But red flags soon appeared,” one potential victim familiar with the scam told FOX 9. “In order to stop a fraudulent transfer on our account, they claimed we needed to send another Zelle transfer to what they called a ‘cancelation number’, which was another phone number.”

“It’s social engineering… it’s convincing something to do something that’s maybe not in their best interest,” explained Mark Lanterman, a cybersecurity expert.

Lanterman notes that it’s easier for criminals to hack a person than a computer. These calls aren’t about stealing bank information directly — they convince people to send money using a sense of urgency.

“There’s something wrong and you need to act on it right now or else, and I’m going to help you with this,” a scammer might claim, creating a false sense of urgency to manipulate the victim.

Wells Fargo has clear warnings online about such tactics, emphasizing the importance of ignoring requests to send payment to solve a problem — they will never ask for this.

“You can use an online service for pennies per phone call in order to fake caller ID,” Lanterman said, highlighting how easy it is for scammers to mislead victims.

If you receive any suspicious call, the best response is simple and cautious: “Say thank you and say I’ll call you back.”

Then call back using the phone number that’s on the back of your card or the phone number that’s actually on your banking statement.
