I just listened to a message on my Google Voicemail from some Indian guy. He said he was from Financial crimes and knows my employer and last 4 of my social. He left this # to call back or he is going to call my manager.
Im assuming this is from a payday loan. Looking to see how to block unknown callers from leaving messages now, so I can block their real # lol.
I received a call from this number on my work voicemail this morning claiming to be Officer Anthony Oliver and that I needed to call them back within 24 hours or they were going to send an officer to my work. Kind of freaked me out a little because I don't have a clue what it was about. I couldn't understand most of the message but they had my name, SSN, and date of birth.
This may be an extortion scam. Scammers use bought/hacked loan application data to extort payments for fictitious debts from victims and victims' families and friends.
