Scam!!!!
Scammed a friend for $200!
When friend realized it was a scam they still had the nerve to ask for $500
Police department said they can't do anything to them!
A woman speaking Spanish called claiming that her name was "Maria" and that she was calling from the cancellation department from my electricity provider. She claimed that my service was to be disconnected in 45 mins because I was past due on my bill and that the only way to avoid disconnection was to purchase a MoneyGram for $400 and to provide that to the electrician that would be cancelling it. Before she could tell any more of her blatant lies, I told her I needed to verify this information with my provider because I knew I wasn't past due and that even so, I had not received a disconnect notice. She claimed that I had indeed received 2. After hanging up with her, I called my daughter so she could call them to find out more information and I called my provider to verify the information. Needless to say, her claims were false.
Upon my daughter calling several times to the phone number listed above, a message answers: "MagicJack customer you have called is unavailable to take your call. Please leave your message after the tone." Finally the woman answered claiming to be "Cherry Garcia" with call id "mq1" from "Top Energy Company". After my daughter prodded for more information, she would hang up. My daughter continued to call and this time a man answered. Once more my daughter called and they were involved in a phone altercation with the woman claiming to have "much work to complete and that she found my daughter calling her a waste of her time". After my daughter warned her that she knew of her real identity and intentions (SCAMMER) and that she needed to leave us alone, the woman angrily fired back with insults and curse words.
I have called the local police department and filed complaints with the FTC and my state consumer agency.
I hope that no one else is bothered by these individuals, but if you are, I hope that my experience can help you and you don't fall as a victim to their crimes.
