got the call said it was from the us treasury and i was called due to a criminal offense...call the number @ 8 am this morning, # does not exist.......BS
The caller leaves a message regarding the Treasury department & a criminal offense has taken place. Return the call or I would be called before a grand jury. Called - bogus number. How can we stop solicitors from calling a cell phone?
called stated Federal Offense commited/state Department etc.. and was to call back. Stated name was Steve Martin and had a Latin accent to voice. AVOID SCAM ALERT!
