Recieved phone call from a man with slight Indian or British accent warning of federal charges resulting in serious consequences and asking for call back. No name given. I called to see what was up... I asked him to prove himself and directly asked him if this was a scam... indicating that the Treasury Department inotes on their website that they will not call like this and that it is likely a scam. The man on the call admitted that this was a scam and that he was draining my bank account as we spoke... He was able to tell me my phone #, my name, and at least 1 member of my houshold's name. He acted as though he had an accomplice that was hacking my accounts and that, while we were on the phone, the accomplice even confirmed that the dirty deed was complete... He wished me a Happy New Year and hung up the phone.
I guess I need to check my bank accounts...
