Sounds to me like you are part of the scam. How could someone pull off a call from the number recited....they were in that office idiot. The map point to a southern state as to where this number is from, not CA. Also, they call on one 800 number and ask you to call back on a different 800 number. I do not think so. You should have signed in as ScamMan.
Person called on a Saturday evening from this number claiming to be from SS and that a large deposit had mistankingly been deposited in my in-laws account and that they would have to send the money back. We hung up.
Got 3 calls one after the other saying they wanted to reach my Mother, they said she had been paid a large payment that must be returned. 1st call 2.31, 3rd call 2.39,
This telephoe code and prefix appears to be coming from Richmond, CA area, where there is a Social Security Western Program Services. No voice mail message was left. I did not return the telephone call.
Man called publishing company claiming he had returned $600 worth of defective books and never received promised replacements. At first refused to give any number where he could be reached, then gave 510-970-1100 as a callback number. Seems to be a scam.
ITS OK PEOPLE!! Hi everyone. Just thought I would ease your concerns. This is a real number from the social security office. I received a call from this number and did not answer because unreconized numbers are usually people trying to get me to answer some dumb survey questions after I bought a new car. The other numbers never leave a voicemail, but this number did. It was my girlfriend! She works at the SS office and was calling from a general use phone to tell me she forgot her cell phone at home and not to worry if I didnt hear from her all day. So I know 100% it is a phone in the social security office. You should have already figured this out since another person posted they called the SS office first and talked to someone and then the SAME PERSON called them back from this number. How could a scammer have pulled that off?? Just thought I would let the people that gave out personal info know- its ok this time because it was legit. BUT DONT DO THAT AGAIN UNLESS YOU KNOW FOR SURE ITS OKAY!!! Might not be so lucky next time!
