Email ad for fake Kroger gift card of $100, by filling out scam survey. Email address contains long string of random characters (30+ characters) @ measuresmilethread.com

I regularly receive many fake promotion scams using the same false email character chain:

[email protected]

How to stop this annoying fraud?

I have received scams from more than 10 separate common nationwide businesses using the fake email string listed above.

"Home Depot", "Lowes", "Kroger", "McAfee", "Sam's Club", etc...

Each email has a link at the bottom with an option to "unsubscribe". This fake unsubscribe link is a direct phishing scam itself, and also places the user into more dark-web scam databases. Physical address of most fake SW companies authoring the HTML email message and supporting the unsubscribe feature is listed as "PO Box 687 Salt Lake City, UT 84110". Address is a picture, not source text.

The fake link is HTML to fraud database, malware, etc.

Scams are all generally survey links which fraudulently claim to offer gift card to legitimate US "big box" store chain.

I have never fallen for the phishing scam, do not know any details on actual fraud partie(s).

The solar upgrade and cool roof robo-caller scam has reached the harassment level. We get these calls many, many times per day on our landline. They don't use a business name. The phone number displayed is not normal looking. It starts with a V and there are too many numbers. I think it's the same voice that was used for the "Department of Energy Savings" scam calls that we used to get. They were just as relentless so I suspect it is the same scammers. These energy-saving robocalls have been going on for years but there has been a recent uptick. It feels abusive

The USPS mailer states, "Dear Carla, When you turn age 65, you will be in your Medicare "INTITIAL ELECTION" period, which means you can choose any Medicare carrier without medical questions. This guarantee acceptance period only happens once. Make an informative choice during your election period and possibly save hundreds of dollars each year! For more information on the choices and benefits available, return this postage-paid inquiry card today! You have ONCE initial election period, do not delay. ************"

The postage-paid inquiry card expects me to sign my full name, identify my age, the spouse's age, and especially the phone number is "REQUIRED FOR VERIFICATION"

Every year, after I submitted my taxes and a week (or two) after I received a check with my tax refund, I am getting a fake check with first or second round of the stimulus payments. I know that no any stimullus payments were announced but these checks are coming year-by-year. These checks looks very real and they are coming from the Treasure and Tax Controller's agency that is located at the main IRS office in Sacramento. These scam checks are distributed in the real envelops with stamps and a kind of water signs but the problem is in the fact that these checks are not real and they are just a simple copy that has been made at copier. These scammers even sent fake stimulus payments in a real envelops that to more confuse people and make them more targeted. So, beware such a scam and before to deposit or cash so fake checks, ask a bank teller or call the lical/state IRS agency and ask them if you was eligible for the stimulus payments. Otherwise, you will be charged for a fee for the falsified check and it can be considered as a financial crime. Protect yourself!

The entity Dupusaze LLC was filed with the Secretary of State CA fraudulently. I do not have any information on this entity but whoever filed this used my name. This is fraud. I will be filing a Police Report as well.

The person called me and said he was from USCIS and he said that their was a arrest warrant against me. He said that I have one hour to stop this and to do so I have to provide identification that it was me. I did. He told me that I could not cut the call, mute or be in the room with someone else. He processed to make me full a form that is used to change addresses and said that I needed to give $500 in order to fill the form. He took my passport number and i cut the call. he called me back 3 more times but i didn't pick it up. If this is a real threat please help me and report this to the authorities.

My phone rings, always registers the phone number as SPAM, which I do not answer. Then a voice mail is left. It is the same exact voicemail every time. It always cuts off the very first part of the voice message and ends in saying the "savings are then passed on to you, yada, yada, reported on your credit...". I have received over 20 voicemails from this scam. No confirmation, no information about anything, just a voicemail claiming I owe money. It's annoying and I haven't received any other notifications in any other forms of communication about a debt I owe being given to collections. The voicemail does seem to want the person to believe that visiting RCApay.com is the easiest way to contact them, but that website doesn't work.

***** ****** ****** *********** ******** and her wife ****** ********, along with ***** and ********* *** ***** ***** ********* have been using false addresses and fake people while filling out the state licence electronically, then once they receive the initial certificate, they stop that "company" by not doing any annual reports, but they will slightly tweak the business name, like put it in all caps and not pay that, and use the first. They are using multiple aliases and just fake people and have used 3 deceased people that I know of thus far. They have set up 4 fake companies, all different things at one address, this one and took out right at $20,000 for PPP Loans in 2020. 4 PPP loans for 4 fake companies at the same address, 480 E. 163rd St., South Holland, IL. There is also a Jasmine Combs, Pamela Nelson, and Beauty Salons that got PPP loans for $14,167, $19,845, $20,833, and $20833. There are probably more, because when I looked up their names and aliases in the Barry County Mo property reconds, along with a ********* ******, ***** and **** *********, ******* ****** and his sister, they have a bunch of NICE vehicles flowing in and out of thin air. They just started Wolf Farms LLC all the way across to the top of the state, but with the list of towns and states I have Beth linked to along with a lot of old people, one is 113 (probably dead and using their name), they have been up to this for at least about 10 years. ***** and **** have 3 hidden little campers to hide out in in the woods behind their house when they see the cops come. ****** and ***** have a nice set up! Have fun! They have ripped the government off big time! Send in the DoR! Especially since **** is a very small school art teacher and ***** delivers a local magazine once a month, they raised 5 kids, have a couple RVs, a boat, about a dozen vehicles hidden behind the barn, and just flew 8 people to Vegas for a weekend. Where did that money come from? PPP loans!

Caller ID said Green Bay School District, so I answered the phone, but then they said they were Spectrum with discounts for good customers. I was leery but curious and ended up giving the caller my Spectrum security code as well as email address. An email arrived immediately with a "discount code" (and confirmed the email address with the phishing scammer). The caller then wanted to speak to my husband and asked for his birthdate. When he said she didn't need it she said he could call back with the info and ask for Jane Davis. Since she sounded like she was calling from an Asian call center, he laughed and she hung up. I then contacted Spectrum and reset my security code and cancelled my email addresses, since two more emails arrived within minutes from the same phishing scammer.

I am receiving 3-6 daily robocalls claiming I am eligible for energy savings (solar, cool roof, paint etc.). No phone number is listed on the calls & there is usually no company name identified.

How do I stop these calls? The robocalls are going to my landline. I have been receiving these calls daily for over a year!!

“Winnermanuelfranco” sent me private messages on my Instagram account claiming I’d randomly been selected to win $20,000. After watching video of the link provided by scammer, I posed a question. He answered correctly. I then said I would not reveal any bank details and the user continued to assure me it was a real and legitimate transaction. The grammar was incorrect and raised flags that this person was a con. I blocked user before disclosing any identifiable information. Pretty sick to target a widowed single mother with $12 to her name. Please stop this person or people.

I posted a picture of my down missing on Face book/ Dog lost and found/ Monet.  I received a call from a 4236167481 to verify who I said I was regarding my missing dog.  They sent a verification code as a text message.  I typed the verification code, and they requested another telephone they could send me something and that it did not go through.  The code did in fact come through, but they continued to request another telephone number to send another code to.  I asked them could they provide a picture of my dog, and or tell me where my dog was located.  They continued to request another telephone because the phone number given could not be verified.
