I just got a call from this number also. The guy who definitely sounds like he's black (I'm black so please take no offense) Just called as soon as I said hello he asked for me by my last name. I of course not knowing who it was immediately said no. He then asked me what my zip code was.........when I asked why the call dropped. I'm not sure what's going on but it definitely seems like a scam. If anyone finds a way to track down this SOB making prank calls please post it as I will do the same.
Received call from this number, said from Detroit Police, looking for donations.....Asking for person, by name. Told not interested has made several calls since in patterns. Watch your ID or block the call. Don't let them know your whereabouts.
1/29 Got the same number on Caller ID but just hours later when I called back the number was not in service.
2/15 Rec'd a call which came in Private Name\Private Number and asked to speak to me by name and then stated that they were from the Detroit Police Department and wanted to know if I have a legal association with.... then the call dropped. I suspect these are from the same caller.
The call came to me 3x in 3 days, when I answered and after a brief stutter, a young, early 20's Afro-American gal stated she was calling from the Michigan Police, 2009 Decal Drive. I'm a reserve officer, I support a lot of Law Enforcement opportunities. But this one, THEY NEVER CALL IN THIS MANNER! When I asked the young women what address she has for me, she hung up. RED FLAG!
So, I've just finished a phone call with the MI State Police. This is a scam, When we call the number, 313-334-3474, we get a rapid busy response. You're getting this too right? This is due to the number being "Forwarded to a new number. Scam Artists, Con Artists, and simple Scumbags use this trick. The Detectives advice to me, we need to report this to our news papers, or news stations. Again, this is a scam.
