I just received the same kind of call - a man (called himself Deputy Phris) with a strong Indian accent claimed that an officer Alex Watson from NYPD had filed a federal complaint against me and I had to call 646-453-6981 to respond to the charges. I called CT State Police Troop A and they said they do not have deputies and that this sounded like a scam.
I got a call from someone claiming to be NYS police officer Alex Watson Badge#25 telling me that an unauthorized warrant would be placed. When I called back the guy was foreign and it was very hard for me to understand him. I've never been arrested and I need to know if this is fraud on his behalf. Help
This is not real!! I received a message I could not understand claiming to be from the Florida State Police Department. They said that they were going to arrest me if I didn't call back officer Swanson at this number. I called and there was no voicemail stating the agency name so I hung up. They immediately called me back and a man with a think Indian accent was on the other end. I immediately asked that he identify himself and he's hesitated and then said he was with the FBI. I let him know that claiming to be with the FBI when not was a federal crime and that I was taping the conversation (I was not), I asked that he confirm he was with the FBI and he hung up on me. This is a SCAM! They want money do not entertain them!
