They used my payroll company email by mimicking their email and letterhead. The wordings on the email seems legitimate and used a copy and paste method to send a thread with the correct emails of the actual payroll company associates emails. They emailed they have a change in their banking system and to reach out so they can provide the wire account number.

I received a call on our business phone from "Sherwin" at "Growth Index Group" asking about our office move. When I asked where he received information about our supposed move, he changed the story and said he was conducting a survey to see if business in the area were planning to move. I said no, that we would not be interested in that. He ended the call cordially when it was clear that I would not be giving out information.

A mysterious package was delivered to my home from a person I do not know, without me ordering any such package. When I tried to look up the return address, the search returned "brushing scam" hits.

Received a VERY detailed call from a lady saying she was with Simple Medical Supplies and that I qualified for a back brace completely paid for by Medicare. My back is bothering me and she had such a detailed delivery (what part hurts, what size T-shirt do you wear etc) that I wasn't sure whether she was legit or not. She said the company is the supplier for back braces etc.

Given the company name, I looked it up, which immediately brought up a scam for that exact product. I immediately cut the conversation short and politely hung up.

She knew at least my first name and zipcode.

I did not give her any information including confirming my address, which she didn't ask for. I am sorry to say that the call got past the mid-level call screening on my phone. :-(

I tried to call Spire and accidentally misdialed and called 800-852-1234 and they didn't declare what company they were with, they said I was eligible for a promotion. They continued to explain it to me and told them I was calling to transfer services to me, the Spire account, and they said they would transfer me to that department but they were scammers. I gave them a bit of information but not everything. I contacted the Better Business Bureau to check on the company to see if they were legit. I found out that they were scammers.

WHEN MY CELL PHONE RANG, THE CALLER ID GAVE THE NUMBER AS A JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA NUMBER. FOOLISHLY, I ANSWERED IT, BUT DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE NUMBER, AND THERE WAS NO NAME. A MAN WITH A HEAVY JAMAICAN ACCENT INFORMED ME I HAD WON 2.2 MILLION DOLLARS, AND A BRAND NEW MERCEDES FROM PUBLISHER'S CLEARINGHOUSE, DELIVERABLE UPON RECEIPT OF A $200 VANILLA VISA, OR AMERICAN EXPRESS, PREPAID CARD, OBTAINABLE FROM WALMART, OR OTHER SIMILAR LOCATION, AND WITHIN 30 MINUTES. I HAD, ONLY, TO OBTAIN THE CARD, AND RETURN HOME TO RECONTACT HIM WITH THE INFORMATION ON THE CARD, WHICH WAS TO BE A FEE OF SOME SORT, WITHOUT WHICH I COULD NOT RECEIVE MY PRIZES, AND WHICH MUST BE OBTAINED WITHIN THE 30 MINUTE DEADLINE. AS I WAS A BIT BORED, I PLAYED ALONG WITH HIS LINE OF BOVINE FECES, UNTIL I BEGAN TO LAUGH, AND HE HUNG UP. THE NEXT MORNING, A SUNDAY, MY PHONE RANG, AS CHURCH WAS ENDING, AND IT WAS HIM, CALLING BACK TO ASK WHY I HADN'T COMPLIED WITH HIS INSTRUCTIONS, YESTERDAY. I TOLD HIM I WAS ENDING CHURCH, AND ASKED IF I COULD PRAY FOR HIM, TO WHICH HE RESPONDED, "YOU CAN DO DAT", AND HUNG UP, AFTER WHICH I PRAYED FOR HIM. I THOUGHT NO MORE ABOUT IT, UNTIL, ABOUT A WEEK LATER, MY PHONE RINGS. THE CALLER ID SAID PRIVATE NUMBER. THE JAMAICAN MAN ASKED IF I'D EVER HEARD OF PUBLISHER'S CLEARINGHOUSE. AS I WAS ASLEEP, AND HE, UNKNOWINGLY WOKE ME, I SAID, "YOU'RE SO FULL OF [censored]. THAT'S WHY YOUR EYES ARE BROWN."I HUNG UP, AND HAVEN'T HEARD ANY MORE. I APOLOGIZE FOR THE LANGUAGE, BUT, WHEN AWAKENED, I'M APT TO SAY ANYTHING TO A CALLER. THANK YOU.

- Tipton, IA, USA

I received multiple calls trying to reach a person I have never heard of for the last 2 weeks. They state they are with DSR, then a recording says the persons name and sometimes another recording kicks in. They either say they are trying to reach the person or they say they are trying to confirm employment. Each call states it's the 2nd attempt, 3rd attempt, 4th attempt, final attempt, etc. not in order either. I have never answered any of their calls and I have blocked the number but still they leave voice mails. Initially I was receiving multiple calls a day, it has decreased to 1 to 2 day now. Not sure how to get them to completely stop contacting me without actually interacting with them.

- Tulsa, OK, USA

Obvious phishing email. My non-existent student loan may be forgiven, but I only have one day to contact them. Showed "opt-in" to advertising services in Albuquerque.
