My mom received the same call an thy wanted her yo drive to Northampton
Miami beach, fl where my brother lives by. Do all of you live in Miami, fl
I think it's someone near my mom job in Miami gardens area.
Some guy with a metro PCS phone. Called me telling me my dad was being beaten by gang members and they are holding him hostage for backing up over a bike. The weird thing is my dad died when I was ten. So I played along, he wouldn't tell his adress (for fear of gang retaliation) or tell me what store he was at. I begged and begged him to tell me the address with all the acting skills I can muster.
Some time after telling an off screen "person" to call the police. He hung up.
And 15 minutes later he called asking if I called the police. Saying "well theys goin keel yo pops" he hang up after a "No and..."
He was calling out of Miami and it seems to be an disposable phone. I'd love to do a lookup but I just don't have the cash, seeing as I have to Rescue my aunt from the Yakuza./joke
Same kind a scenario. The guy called me telling me a friend backed over a bike and he was being beaten up. He wanted money or help or something...said he was located near Miami Beach. He said they took the guy inside and he did not get his name. He also said that he was taking a chance by calling me and that he feared gang retaliation.
My wife just received the same type call from this number. He called her and said that her husband (i.e. me) had just hit some motorcycle and some guys pulled me out of the car and started beating me up and said they would kill me unless she went over there with money.
I have contacted a police officer friend who will be looking this phone up. Hopefully, whoever is doing this is stupid enough to keep using the phone so the cops can get him.
This guy did the same thing to me! He called me telling me that they had my brother about a week ago. My brother does get into to stupid situations so I was following his orders while also texting my brother's girlfriend. He wanted me to western union money to Puerto Rico and then I could talk to my brother. Thankfully I got a hold of him before I sent the money. I ended up getting the name if who they wanted me to send the money to.
Then today this stupid man has the audacity to call me again telling me another one of my family members has been in an accident!
I made a police report but nothing has happened yet.
