I received the same message twice. I called back and asked them to be removed from their list. They said it was a very serious matter and that it was a federal agency and therefore laughed at the thought of removing me from their list. He said fine then ignore us, we'll take further action. I said that's not happening someone should take further action against you. He laughed and said alright then. He asked for the number I was calling from. Shouldn't he knows that?
Whatever, tired of these types of things, I knew it was bogus because I have nothing to worry about, but wanted to call and see what kind of angle the would take.
Caller left voice mail message identifying himself as what sounded like "Agent G. M. Stanerson" - caller had an accent and stated that his call must be returned within 48 hours to prevent federal charges from being filed.
Caller left voice mail message identifying himself I could not understand his name due to an accent, stated that his
call must be returned within 48 hrs to prevent federal charges
He called and left me a voicemail last night as well - same exact thing. Called me again and told me that they were going to come and arrest me - pretty funny since I haven't even killed a spider before.
Same thing here...caller left message saying he was an agent of some sort, but never referred to us by name, just "you must return this call within 48 hours or face federal prosecution". I feel badly for the people who get sucked into this nonsense!!!
They called my mom three times. Once they spoke in Latvian and knew her name a relative's name and asked for money. Second time it they said they were an agent. Third time they said they were going to stick their [***] in her. How they knew Latvian is the oddest part.
