I received a voicemail from a recorded message telling me that starts with "...has expired and you will be taken in custody by local police as there are four serious allegations pressed on your name at this moment. We would request that you get in touch back to us so that we can discuss about this case before taking any legal action against you. The number to reach us at is *** ***  Thank you."

I didn't call the number as shows the number is a Non-Fixed VOIP number in New York, New York with the original carrier being Ymax Communications.

This person called me saying I owed back taxes. I know I do not owe anything, so I asked them what I owed these back taxes for. Once I asked this, the person on the other end started getting mad, cussing at me, and saying very vulgar comments.

I didn't answer, but they left this message: "And once again expired after that you will be taken under custody by the local police as there are four serious allegations pressed on your name at this moment we would request you to get back to us so that we can discuss about this case before taking any legal action against you. The number to reach us is *** * *** *** Thank you." NOTE: I had received this same call back on 6/1/18 from number 315-370-7814 (New York). On the 6/1/18 calls, they were relentless and called 5 or 6 times in a row (one after the other) within a half hour's time and left the same message each time. I ended up blocking the number, and now they are calling from the 747 number. They are calling my cell phone.

Just asked my name and upon confirmation laughed and satted "that's all I need."

Sunday, May 6th was a stressful night when a received a threatening phishing email in my main inbox of my student email account. The email was a threat stating they apparently hacked my front camera capturing video aka web cam on my PC (I own a Macbook) and apparently captured a video for black mail to be sent out to my contacts unless they receive 368 dollars in Bitcoin. If they don't receive the money they will forward the video to everyone on my contact list. After running MacKeeper's Antivirus Scan on my Macbook I was able to locate malware and viruses I must have accidentally and without knowledge downloaded or picked up from a pop-up or website. With the help of Mackeeper Live Support, I was able to destroy the malware and viruses, cleaned out adware, and they had me reset my Google Chrome browser back to default settings. I wanted to report this incident, because it is a phishing scheme that to some might seem real and they need to know to be aware of it and what to do. I advise to run your security software for your laptops and/or PC and be aware of malicious phishing emails and malware.

Hello, I'm asking for help from my family. I was looking for a job in Lithuania and Ireland, and I wanted to make money, but I got it that I lost my debts with my husband and I was renting expensive things. At 6, it's very hard for a child to come back to Lithuania and help him help. Thank you very much. 10000 € support.aciu thank you! My aib bank account IE26AIBK93113676020059
