DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!!!! And do not call them back!!! First of all, they may SAY they have your social security number (SSN), but do they actually RECITE your actually SSN? Even if they SAY they have it, don't confirm it.
I have been getting phone calls daily from (207) 710-0712 on both my home number and cell number, generally less than five minutes apart. I never pick up and the caller, always a female voice, leaves a message. Per my cell phone, the number is generally 1 minute and 10 seconds in length, indicating a possible recorded message is being left, especially as the voice is always the same. Below, I have transcribed the exact message.
"[FIRST & LAST NAME]. I'm contacting you form the Process and Summons Department. I'm calling to notify that there will be two charges filed against you in your county. Looks like fraudulent activity has been attached to your name and your social security number. [FIRST & LAST NAME]. I do need to make you aware of your legal right to address your charges prior to them being filed against you. You will need to do so before you receive your summons at your place of employment or at your home address. One you are served, your rights will be forfeited. Your case number is [FAKE CASE #]. Their telephone number is (207) 77100712 [sic]. You will need to speak with someone in their legal department."
They called with a voice mail stating that I had to charges against me and one was for fraudulent activity linked to my name and social
This stuff freaks me out!!
And how do they get a hold of personal info- they never stated who they were with or what company was filling charges against me.
Received a recorded message for my ex-husband (which didn't surprise me) indicating there were two charges that will be filed against him in his county for fraudulent activity linked with his social security number. I'm figuring it's a scam of some sort where someone would call the number back and give out their social security number. I don't know who to report this stuff to so if anyone has any ideas, please list them.
