I have received several calls from Social Security on my cell phone. Three or four calls yesterday. It is a recording. Something about my Social Security number. Social Security Fraud Division. Please contact us. I called the number back. 678-387-3760. A woman answered. She said you have reached Social Security. Then a man came on the line. He said this is Social Security Fraud Division. My Social Security number has been used for fraud in Georgia. I know it is a scam. I played along. He asked for my name. I said you should have my name. I told him I reported your number. He hung up.

I was called supposedly because there was a criminal case against me because a stolen car had my personal information and there were 22 lbs of cocaine in the car along with a huge amount of money from money laundering activity id been doing and the FBI was out to make an arrest so they had to block my social security number to keep the crimes from being associated to me. Then I caught on to them and called them out and hung up.

The last two days I have received several phone calls to my home phone claiming to be Social Security. Three calls yesterday. Two calls today. I know it is a scam. I do not answer the calls. I let it go to my answering machine. The recording is always a woman’s voice. State they are with Social Security. There has been activity on my Social Security number. For more information press number one. I am not pressing a number. The phone numbers in my caller ID 216-941-9827 and 216-941-2112. If I don’t recognize the number, I don’t pick up. I hate when they scam the elderly. Makes me mad.

I usually do not answer my phone if I don’t know who is calling but I have several doctors in Wichita Falls, TX & this call was from Wichita Falls so I answered. It was a recording saying the Social Security Administration had issued a warrant for my arrest due to fraudulent activity on my social security number. The recording listed other reasons for the warrant but I don’t remember them. The recording continued by saying I could talk to someone by pushing the number 1. I hung up at that point.

I’ve received messages from 2 different local numbers claiming to be with Social Security. The messages says a warrant has been issued for my arrest.

Let me share my today experience with you so you can protect yourself.
Today, I get called from US Border Patrol 802-266-3035 around 11 AM.
I did not answer, three time they called.
I checked this phone# on Google to verify that this is legit phone call or not, yes, this is legit phone# which belong to US Border Patrol is located in Route 102, Canaan, VT 05903, United States.
After wards- I received another call from my local Police dept with correct phone# in my called id (in my cell) which I have saved it for my convenience.
Look How scammer make us fool and try to cheat us- they have a very sophisticated technology- they can manipulate caller ID with correct phone and agency name so you think this is a legit phone call.
I answered it my Wallington police phone as usual, now he told me that your identity is stolen and this is serious matter so please stay on the line I will transfer to US intelligence bureau so they will protect your bank account & other financial account.
First look like American voice person talked, then he transferred to another person similar to African American guy (voice look like), so you can trust that all discussion is legit.
Finally, they asked me which other language you speak- I mentioned Gujarati, Hindi- he transferred it to Gujarati guy name like Manish Patel- he himself introduce and explain me that he is working in Washington DC identity theft government unit.
He was such a professional cheater, he talked with very professional manner that you can believe him. Finally, after long discussion he told me that you need new SS#, Drive Lic# etc because someone used your identity & open various bank account in California and transferred money to fund for terrorism in Syria & Afghanistan.
He told me that you have to go today to close by SS office with your passport, Naturalize certificate today so they can take your finger print and issue new SS# he will contact SS office and get your appointment in this emergency case, please wait for my text message for your appointment and other details
He text me as below on my cell – so you can believe that everything is legit.
Mr. Shatilal Patel
Your Appointment has been scheduled on September 02, 2020 in between 13:00 to 13:30 in Social Security Administration (935 Allwood Rd, Clifton, NJ 07012, United States)
Case file :- X 9 6 3 2 5 8 4 1
When you go to Social Security Administration for updating your fingerprints you must bring your Government Authorized ID and Government Certified bond. As soon as we got the confirmation over the bond registration we will share you the token number as well.
If you appear without proper documentation, we will not allow you for the further process.
Thanks for Contacting USCIS.
Washington, DC

Then he mentioned me to go CVS store & get Target Gift card of $1998.50 (get four card of $500 each) so you can pay these new documents fees. He told me that do not hang his phone when you go to CVS and then go to SS Office. I feel that something is fishy.
I ran to my police dept with my cell phone on mode, I explain them whole situation- they told me they never called me and this is a professional cheater who cheat innocent people daily.
I hang up my cell phone now.
Its unbelievable that these professional scammer & cheater is our own Indian people who get our information from our friends or by other source and cheat us very professional way.
I just want to help other our own people so they will be alert & they will be saved from this identity theft scam phone call. Please share in your circle.
Also for you & your family safety for identity theft protection – please sign up with monitoring company who can monitor for you by 24×7 like identityguard.com, LifeLock, IDShield etc..
Its worth to spend $15 or $20/month to avoid more problems in the future. Today’s high tech world makes our life more miserable.
God bless all.
Thank you.

I received ten calls in a row on my home phone last Friday. All of the calls had a different phone number in my caller ID. The numbers were similar. 312-543-7063, 321-543-4389, 312-543-4764. The calls left the same number for me to call back. 315-232-8257. I did not call the number back. I did answer one of the calls. I thought the call may have been my nephew in Texas where they had the hurricane. A man came on the line. He said my Social Security number had fraud activity in Washington DC. As soon as I heard Social Security I hung up. I knew it was a scam.
