I am receiving calls from this number...caller id shows New York...a computerized female voice says this is a final and official notice from IRS before filing a lawsuit against my name...they never state a name...instructs me to call them back at (253) 336-5054...reverse lookup shows this number to be associated with a federal grant scam...very annoying!
Got a call from this number today at 2:40 PM, left a message, very garbled really didn't make any sense. Heavy accent and the only thing I could make out was my name which sounded computerized. A reverse search on the number comes back to Brooklyn New York, Odd since I live in the Toronto Canada area. FYI, the microsoft scam is very large right now and yes people actually fall for it and allow remote access to these fraudsters keep a weary ear out for phone calls.
I got a call today 2011-11-29 14:23 EST.
The caller knew my first name and said he was Brat or Brad from Bell Canada.
I told him I did not take calls from Bell Canada and hung up.
BE VERY CAREFUL if someone will call you from these numbers: 718-377-9189, 630-694-1356 or 607-734-9189.
All those numbers belong to the same scamer. Please notice that persons you may spoken to has the same accent. This time the person called want to fix my computer and needs access.
