I also called and reached "officer Thomas Ryan" of the "FBI" who had a middle Eastern accent. I said I had received a message to call them about an investigation they were doing on me. I said, "Before I give you any of my information I need proof of who you say you are...Where is the FBI headquarters located?" To which he replied "Ma'am, how you gunna calling me asking if this is a scam?"
I told him how ashamed he should be of calling people and telling them that the FBI is investigating them and he hung up. I should also note that to be sure, I called the FBI headquarters and they confirmed my doubt.
They called saying that they were with the criminal investigation department of the police and that I needed to call them back because I was under investigation. Didn't call back...but it's a little concerning that they had my first and last name.
Got a call that call ID showed FBI (717) 232 8686. The message said that FBI is investigating……and asked me call back ASAP at (202) 754 8250. I called FBI and tried to find out that was wrong. I got an answer that was a scammed call and someone most tried to get money from me…….It is scary that someone even scams and uses FBI number and know my name to threaten me.
please don't be afraid of these idiots. They are from India. They cannot hurt you. they are using magicJack because it's untraceable. Report them to magicjack get the phone shut off
They called my daughter at college, left a message threatening legal action and gave this number as a call back. Caller ID showed the actual number of the FBI's Atlanta office. We knew it was a scam, so I called them back and pretended to be a hysterically panicked college girl victim. I was transferred to 3 different "officers". After keeping them busy for 15 minutes (and trying to control my laughter), I told them i was calling from my work phone and asked them to call my "cell", which they eagerly agreed to. The number I gave was actually the local office for my state's Bureau of Investigation, and I really hope they called it. Most fun I have had all week!
got a call from the Atlanta "fbi." Left a message claiming to be Officer James Anderson and told me to call back at 202-754-8250. couldn't really understand all that was being said but he said it concerned my identity. Not calling back.
