I received a call today (Friday) from this number. It is regarding my SS retirement benefit application. The number calling cannot be called back...it is an outgoing number only. If you are uncertain about any of this, call the 800#
The telephone number, 215-597-5657 is an out of service, and past Social Security number. I called the Federal Trade Commission and was told that the government will never call you and will always use mail. This is a scam.
I received a phone call from 215-597-5657, claiming to be a Social Security representative, but did not give a name or Employee number. What makes me question this number is that NORMALLY Social Security does not leave personal information on a message system and always asks many verifying questions before indulging information. The phone call was also received on a Sunday morning at 9:03AM. If you receive a phone call like this that makes you suspicious, don't return a phone call to this number or any like it; call Social Security and report it during normal business hours. THIS IS NOT A NORMAL PHONE CALL FROM SOCIAL SECURITY.
