The scammers utilize spoofing to cover their robo calls. They use a robot to try and convince you that it is a person. They are targeting small businesses and people who may have tax debt.

I don’t know if they want money since I’m not replying. First text told me tentative of fraud on j’y account. Second text telling me I’ll be delivered at this date that time . I’m not replying it says to send stop to stop getting text but I feel they might fish if you reply or click anything. My Amex alerts has not rung so I assume it’s a scam

I received a call from an unknown caller stating that his name was Nelson Smith from US Customs and Borders Protection and that they intercepted a package with traces of drugs from US. Postal Service addressed to my name. He had my current mailing address and a mailing address I am not familiar with in El Paso, Texas. He stated his badge ID was 925R10 and my case # was DC782479. He said that the Texas authorities have an arrest warrant out for me and that they will be sharing it with my local police. Additionally, he wanted to confirm my banking institution and said that someone is using my name to launder thousands of dollars.

A person contacted me through Facebook Marketplace. Her screen name was Lina Caroline. Her Facebook profile stated she went to high school in Wiggins, .S. USA. She wanted to buy an item I have posted on Facebook Marketplace. She "tried" to send me the money through PayPal. Said the payment would not go through because she sent the money from a business account and mine was not. I got an email from a suspicious PayPal address stating that I needed to ask "Lina" to send me $300 which would turn my account into a business account. I told "Lina" that I was not going to do that. I did not hear back from the person after that.

I listed some items on FB Marketplace. Scammer was interested in several (should have known) they wanted to call me. I thought it was ok. So I gave my phone number (mistake) then they wanted to send me a verification code by text and wanted me to send it back so they would know I was real. Of course when I did they never called. So I looked it up and found how others had been scammed the same way. I'm concerned how they can use my number or what they'll do with it!!

I was waiting on a package to be delivered. I received a text saying they needed to confirm my address from USPS to make my delivery. I was working and didn't even think twice about it because I wanted my package that had a check included. My paycheck was deposited into my cashapp a few days later and I did not even receive a notification. ive always deposited to that account because it comes earlier. I checked my app and there was 61 pending transactions within 3 hours of my check being deposited. 61!!!! All from the same "merchant" and for the same amount. Idk why it wasn't flagged hmmm.. and not sure why I did not receive any notifications of these charges happening. Cash app denied my disputes for the third time now since this happened 5 days ago. I am filing complaints with all of the agencies and hoping for a refund one day. So annoying and Cash App should be shut down and sued.

I am receiving almost daily calls saying I owe a debt but the person leaving the message never says my name or gives me a call back number even though they want a call back. They just give a website, and every call comes from a different phone number.

Received a robocall. The recording stated his name was Kevin with Receivables Credit Associates LLC, claiming there was a breach of contract with one of their clients. The recording directs you to their website, rcapay.com, did not answer before I check to see if they are legit.

He impersonated a well-known African actor Desmond Elliott, who is actually rich, he gained my confidence, brainwash me, bullied me and convinced me that he had a job over here in the US and he needed the money to pay the workers so he sent two checks to my account, bully me to take the checks out before they clear the bank and send them through to him through the crypto machine and cash app being naïve I actually thought that this was OK when it all boils down my bank, froze my account and now I’m forced to pay back $22,000 and of course he threw that phone away because he no longer uses it or corresponds with me. I have reported it to the police and I just want everybody else to be aware that there’s scammers out there who will tell you tell you they love love you and finesse you only to steal your money specially, if you’re single or elderly, so please beware of these guys from Africa. They are not the ones that are in the pictures that they send you and when they talk to you it is not the person that you think they are. They are impersonators and Scammers. They even do fake videos of the person.

First received a text asking if I approved fraudulent activity on my card. After replying "NO" to the text, a person called and said they were "Brian with 'bank name' and I'm calling to verify the activity that you reported as fraudulent. Brian went on to ask for my username and asked to give the verification code that was sent to me by using leading words to make me believe they needed the information. Brian then stated that "someone attempted to send a wire transfer and that they've stopped it. You'll just need to verify the code that I'll be sending to your phone."

I stopped at that point and asked him for his name, which he provided. I then asked for a number to call him back at, which he didn't provide.

I received a cheque in the mail from "tickets now" claiming they are a Ticketmaster Canada- resale company for $900. It says the invoice date was May 16, 2022. I am a season ticket holder for a NHL team so can't remember if we had sold any tickets back in May, but don't believe we did. It just seems odd to receive this cheque. How did they know my name and address? If I cash the cheque, my bank said they would put a note on my file and to wait until the cheque clears. But if this is a scam, how does me depositing a cheque from them benefit them? I am just not sure if this is some sort of scam and wanted to know if anyone else had experience like this? I can't seem to upload the picture but can send it separately.
