I got a call at 1742 on 24th of Nov. I didnt hear my phone ringing so I didnt answer. When I called back, it said Department of Defense. My husband is in the Army, my father is in the Army, and my brother is in the Army. And my brother was hit by an IED and he is in Germany in comma. I freaked out and I was trying to figure out if anything bad happened to my brother... But I found it really weird... Why would they call me from someone's cell phone and why would they have thier phone turned off?? Gosh, I am about to call sprint to figure out who the hell called me....
same number, i missed the call. voicemail said the same as above. never give info over the phone. also find out if any family members have lost military Id's. I had mine stolen and I am curious to find out if that has anything to do with this. someone is up to no good.
Wow!! This is exactly what happened to me. I thought why would the DoD call me from an Illinois cell phone. I am also active duty and was wondering what the hell. I called them back and all I got was the voicemail which was full so I couldn't even leave a message. Definately sounded like a scam to me and thats how I found this website.
We heard the phone ring and it was dead when we picked up. I checked the caller ID and it said Dept of Defense. I felt something was up so I googled the number and came up with this. I did not call back...
Hopefully no one is taken by this scam or whatever it is.
