Random calls from various numbers - 5-10 times per day. Short pause when you answer then blip and a recorded message (they have several) saying something like 'Hi This is Jodi, you asked me to call you about our final expense insurance, do you remember?'

If you say nothing it will hang up after a minute or so. I have only told them Take me off your list and not waited for a response

This company calls a dozen times a day from different numbers and begins with "This is so and so from US Funeral Expenses, you asked me to call you back, do you remember". This is wrong on so many levels. My parents both passed from Alzheimer's disease and we dealt with 10+ years of escalating memory issues. No one in this household ever spoke to anyone from this company, so this statement is totally misleading and inappropriate.

A scammer called me and told me that he would be able to give me a car loan. I had previously applied for a car loan online, so when the scammer told me my name and exact address, I foolishly assumed that it was a legitimate agency calling me. I asked the name of the company and he told me Finance Secure. My initial online search for the company didn’t yield any results, which for me is usually a dead giveaway, but in my mind I was foolishly listening to family members that constantly tell me that I need to think more positive and that everyone isn’t out to do me harm! The scammer even told me to “think more positive” because I was questioning him, that’s how I found out that he was in the state of Oregon. Sorry, I didn’t press for an exact city. This experience just confirmed for me that I am 1,000% right in not trusting anyone and I now have 2 Step-Verification on every account that allows me to have it! The number that came up on my Caller ID was (814) 756-7007. He told me that his name was Marcus and that his direct phone number was (719) 297-1572. He already knew that I bank with ***** *****, so when he asked for my Account Number in order to deposit my funds into my ***** ***** Bank Account, I against my better judgement gave him my Account information. While I was on the phone I was trying to research the company and I came across a big bold statement online that said…”A real Lender would NEVER ask you for your personal bank information, if someone asks you for your personal bank information, it’s a SCAM!”

So I immediately hung up on the scammer, called ***** ***** and placed a hard stop on my Account. I changed EVERYTHING…. I set up a new Username & Password and I closed my Checking & Savings Account and opened up new ones!

I don’t want anyone else to go through what I experienced and hopefully these [censored] can be found, arrested and prosecuted for their crimes.

Thank you for taking the time to read my complaint.

This office has called from at least 23 different numbers that I have blocked on my phone … there are more. They call at least 4 times a day during work hours - weekends / they do not discriminate. I use my phone for business and they are a menace interrupting important calls all day long. I have blocked 18 numbers and counting.

Similar to the posting I found here, our church received an inquiry using our website "Contact Us" form, with the message

"Hello,

How are you doing? I am looking to give away my late husband's Yamaha baby grand piano to a passionate instrument lover, so please let me know if you will take it or have someone who will care for it.

Regards,

Charlotte Hughes."

I suspected it was a scam so I looked up the email address and found your similar posting.

Email sent to local elementary school staff offering free baby grand piano "almost new as it was played by my late husband just a couple of times before he passed." Only cost is shipping, as piano is currently in storage. Email sender said to contact mover for shipping cost and asked that it be done ASAP as they do not want to incur additional storage fees. Moving company quoted three prices (915 for 10 day, 1300 for 5 day, 1900 for 2 day) and asked for delivery address. In response to delivery address, moving company sent a request for payment through Zelle, with contact information that did not match the moving company. They claimed they would send shipment/tracking info after I sent payment.

I received an automated call saying, “this call is for —————. We will be coming to your home or place of employment to serve papers”. I did not recognize the name they had given, so I assumed immediately that it was not legitimate. I called the number back and a person, not a machine, answered the phone. I said they must of had a wrong number because I never heard of the person they were looking for. She answered, “thank you, honey”, and hung up.

I was approached about an offer to advertise for Haagendaz with a decal being put on my truck and they sent me a check for my first payment of $350 along with the amount to have the decal installed. I was told to keep the $350 and put the rest towards the installation of the decal and when I deposited the check they would send me the information to pay the company to install the decal. The email I received disappeared and I starred it and saved it so I’m thinking they have my password for my email which I’m changing. I got suspicious when the check said Klahoma City, OK so I called the Bank which is MidFirst Bank and they confirmed it was fraudulent. This company said they would pay me $350 a week to advertise the decal.
