Type of a scam Phishing

Received a call from an unknown number. Caller ID showed the call originating from Fort Collins, CO. Ignored call & let it go to voice mail. First 10 seconds or so was elevator music followed by a computer generated female voice saying that authorization was needed for a $1499 payment for an Apple MacBook Pro on my Amazon account. Message also instructed that if I did not wish to authorize this payment to press "1" to speak with a customer support representative. Stevie Wonder could see this is a scam. Checked my Amazon account just to verify & no Apple MacBook Pro had been ordered by me or anyone else in my family. Stay alert for things like this & help educate your family and friends about these scams, especially older folks.

I searched for a phone number to contact facebook because I was receiving some weird messages pretending to be facebook admin, when I called 1877 592 0456 no one answered but immediately after i hung up I received a call from 91 701 506 4503, when I tried to explain and they asked me my page information as soon as I gave them the page info they hung up then I called back the main number again someone picked up the phone saying they charge 300$ to fix the problem and when I said I just wanted to know if it is legit and they hung up, then I called back and they picked up the phone and hung up.

this clearly shows they are taking money from people pretending to be Facebook help.

this has to stop.

thank you

I received a call from DMV, allegedly "a Wayfair's Account was sent to them, they requested payment of $218, I replied it was a Kapult's Account, I ordered, the balance was 60 plus dollars remaining; the phone person said "it's interest that occurred and set up 6 months payments' plans of $36 starting November 2023, i explained, im a CVA's survivor and this does not make any sense, to pursue a debt through DMV, however, i called Kapult, the person said "the account is with another establishment and given me the direct number to contact"; it was a different number 1-888-326-1253; the person of myself contacting Better Business Bureau, to verify if this is a legit call or professional scammer business, trying to scam the poor and make their establishment, home, and/or family rich without my consent and manipulation to extort money. It's a lot of corruptions in high places and businesses.

I didn't receive and letters, email, only a call; is this a legit establishment or a penniless company tried to become rich.

Scammer admitted after I got angry that it was a fake email. He hung up on me several times and every time I called back, he disquised his voice even going so far as a female voice. I took a screenshot of the email and the sender used the name Connor Butler as contact. He kept asking me to open my laptop and I refused.

I called a number from online thinking it was Entergy and all they seem to care about is if I was paying for a bill. I needed customer service and they hung up on me. Then I called back and someone else answered the phone and said they could work out my problem. It did not seem like it was a Entergy. Then I looked at my Entergy bill and noticed it was a completely different number. Entergy said that the number I had called was not their phone number.

Type of a scam Credit Cards

I was called initially by NFCU's legitamite phone number and was told that someone was trying to make payments on my card somewhere in georgia and asked if this was me, I said no and froze my card instantly. They said to verify information about you they needed my safeword, name, addres,s email, and last four of my social. I was skeptical as to why they needed this to report a scam to me so i asked if they could prove they were real. Low and behold they name off all my bank transactions and the names of where they were from in the last month. Which still had me believe them somewhat more so i gave the required info and they said to resolve the matter we need to have the last 10 digits of your card and pin # to be able to resolve the matter. I had already frozen my card so i wasnt worried, until he asked if i had done so and said to complete the process they needed me to unfreeze my card. I did for about 30 seconds until i looked up online that the banks will never ask for your safeword. I lost no money here, but i did lose the last four of my social which i have already made a fraud report. If a legit company's number calls you and it seems suspicious hang up and recall the number as the only way for a spoofed number to work is if they call you first.
