Got a text from Acc-Alert without any contact info attached to look at but providing the phone number saying my account has been “L0CKED for your security”. No idea which account/company and uses incorrect parentheses and the number 0 for the letter O as well as abbreviated “account”. Provided the message ID of ******* with # on each side and the number to call being 866-894-0377.

I applied to remote job on Glassdoor and got a email from a G***** A****** from the recruiting team and was directed to speak with hiring manager on teams who asked me a 3 sets of questions and showed a job description that looked like it came from the company. I was eventually offered the job where I was asked to pay for the equipment 650$ and then I’d be reimbursed. The time in which the “hiring manager” would respond were late in the evening or late night. So I did some research and found that the company and called the actually company which was a dead end the recipient didnt speak English I don’t think this is a legit source

I have been getting calls every morning on my landline for the last couple of weeks. The caller says he is from Amazon and he has an accent. I can hear others in the background. He says I owe them $1199 for something from Apple. The caller ID reflects a cupcake store in Westerville, Ohio.

A couple of weeks ago they texted me saying that I had a package that was undeliverable because my address was incorrect. In the meantime, my son had sent me two items that never got to me. So when the second attempt was made, and the site came up as “USPS” and it looked identical to the site I use for informed delivery, I decided to put in the information. My area has not so great service, so when they wanted .09 for delivery on a card, it did not surprise me bc the last time something came postage due , the carrier would not accept cash. I got a message from my bank ask if I had linked my debit card recently to an Apple Pay device. So I was able to contact the bank before I had any problems.

A scammer texted me saying my USPS package needed a redelivery and came with a fee, I had ordered something recently so it didn’t seem like a scam, I put it my banking information, my name and address and soon realized it was a scam.

Received an unwanted email from: [email protected] claiming to be from McAfee. I never signed up for these emails. The emails contained what appeared to be screenshot images of a McAfee anti-virus software ad. I have tried to unsubscribe from these emails multiple times. The images in the emails led to unsecure webpages; http://mcaffe.securitytactics.com/rd/su19690JDcjz592460kHQU299FlB1150Uutq1200

Message me that they were interested in an item I had posted on Facebook to sell. Kept asking for my phone number but never called it. Insisted on a confirmation number to verify myself. Finally, after they didn't choose to call my number that it was an actual scam. Reported this to Facebook as well.

I was approached by a girl selling concert tickets to a show I really wanted to go to. She sent me proof of everything and I did my research on her account, everything checked out. I was skeptical to send her money through Zelle because of the risks, but I had tried to send the money through paypal goods and services and it failed to go through. We came to a deal to send the money in smaller portions and after sending $250 she would send 1 ticket. I messaged back and forth with her for four hours trying to help her transfer the tickets to my account but nothing was working and she still had my money.

Claimed i had a package being held in the FedEx warehouse. Tried to get me to click to see what the product was and to track where it was.

I've never used this email to order so I knew it was a scam.

Medicare called claiming they wanted to confirm some details saying my info had changed and my card was expiring. I knew it was a scam because the person asked for my name and if it was Medicare they would have known my name and they wouldnt call me to update my info or say my card is expired. It was a scammer

Was approached via messenger for Facebook marketplace as a buyer and asked for cell number to verify me as a legitimate seller. I gave it, they send me a code then said it didn't work so asked for another cell. I refused and they became very pushy. I blocked the chat but don't know what will happen now that they have my cell.
