Got a strange call from this one. The caller started to leave a message, and when he mentioned my name, I picked up. Allegedly, this was a Mr. Bennet of Fraud Mediation Services. He claimed that a person with my name was responsible for passing a bad check and other financial fraud. He read off the last 4 digits of the alleged perpetrator's social security number and it was not mine. I told him so, and he asked if I knew or had any information that would help in locating the person he was seeking. I didn't, and after that he hung up.

Caller ID only said "Long Beach, CA." An internet search links this number to a residential address with no informations about "Fraud Mediation Services." Is this another scam, or is it the real thing? I have no idea.
