This is a dangerous and harassing call. Indian man tells me my computer needs cleaned or it will be locked up. Said if I give him my credit card number he can clean it up right now. When I refused, he became irate and started cussing me. I tell him to go eat a cow and hang up.

This Is Mark I just drove by a property I believe you're in and I'm actually really interested in making an offer on it even with the coronavirus going on I'm actually still buying houses the whole process would take less than 5 minutes to get done. I pay cash I could close on your time frame and there wouldn't be any fees attached finished at all just give me a call this number it's 623-244-5351 again that number is 623-244-5351 thanks for doing for me the favor of purchasing your property. Now if this phuck wad Mark really was who he said he was, first he'd stop and ring the doorbell and hand over his cash offer. Secondly, he wouldn't give you a different call back number than the one he used when he spoof called you. Thirdly, the call back number is tied to known con artist and is not a legitimate business. Hey phuck wad Mark,,,,,,,,,go fornicate yourself!!

Guy called out of the blue, said his name is Matt Wiedner and said the was the FBI and Whats my name. I said I wasn't giving out that information cause the FBI DONT CALL PEOPLE THEY PEOPLE & THEY WILL SHOW UP TO YOUR HOUSE BEFORE THEY CALL YOU. Matt Wiedner said that he was going to transfer me to another the FBI agent for further questions. When he transferred me the lady, Jen Walz, answered the phone and said this is the SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION. I SAID THAT MATT WHO TRANSFERRED ME TO YOU JUST SAID THAT IS WAS THE FBI CORPORATION. Jen WALZ THEN TOLD ME I'M SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION. AND SHE THEN ASKED ME FOR MY NAME BIRTHDAY AND SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER AND A CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT CARD INFORMATION. I HUNG UP AND BLOCKED THIS NUMBER AFTER THAT.

This number called my phone today and the recorded message told me to hold, a woman came to the phone and asked what I was calling for. I told her they called me and she looks up my number and goes on to tell me about an outstanding cash advance debt. I have NEVER in my life done a cash advance. They said it was done in Ohio, yet I have lived in Georgia for the past 7 years. The lady said ohh you're disputing it and hung up and now when I call the number back it is continuously busy or rings and then goes busy. What a scam!!!

Third call today from a caller who said my identity was compromised and that I was wanted for drug trafficking and money laundering in the state of Texas. The call was a definite scam attempt to obtain sensitive information about bank accounts and social security. They said my car was impounded on the border and they know I was money laundering for the cartel. Only way to prove my innocence is to give them my bank route and account information so they can 'monitor' it for illegal transactions. Advise using extreme caution if you receive calls from someone using this number!

Fake attorney asking for your bank account info because someone with your same last name died 9 years ago and had no will. He claims with your bank account he can transfer funds (minus his cut) to you. This jack wad will instead clean out any account that your provide him the information on.

scammer telling me he needs my credit card number so he can check to see when my stimulus check will be deposited. i told him i don't need a credit card number for that, and he said oh, you're right, instead i need your routing and account number and we can make sure your check is deposited today. then went on to ask me if i have any scrap metal for sale.....wtf?

This is a fake attorney scam telling me I have same last name as his rich deceased client and they want my bank account number to transfer millions of $ into so they can avoid taxes. Said I'll get a 25% cut for my effort, now please just give me your account number (s). told this phuck wad to stick it and then blocked his number.

scammer wanting my bank info to help speed up me getting my stimulus check.........said if I give him my route and account number he can have the money in my account by tomorrow............funny he wasn't smart enough to know caller id showed potential fraud, plus I already got my check.
