Caller provided my address and social security number by saying it first out loud and then tried to have me confirm whether it was correct or not. Then he said he had a business opportunity for me and was trying to get me to meet him at a location. When I asked him what it was he wouldn't give me any info.

Call was sent to voicemail - have received these types of scams before. The voicemail is conveniently cut off but half of the message from a stern, automated voice is that there are several outstanding warrants for undisclosed criminal activity and that I had ‘better call them back immediately’ or else I will be picked up by local authorities. I do not live in (nor have I ever visited) Idaho.

Type of a scam Identity Theft

I received a phone call this morning from 915 613-3822. I did not answer the call because it was not a familiar number. The person left a message saying they were a local bank (which I was unable to distinguish what the name of the bank was) wanting me to return their call and set up an automatic withdrawal system. They left a number where I should call back, but I was unable to understand the numbers, so I wasn't sure if it was a different number.

They said I won something, of which I didn't believe. Before I hung up, they did get me to say "Yes" to something, which I immediately realized was not smart. They talked very quickly, and mentioned a variety of magazines, products, and gift cards. The voices were male.

On August 15th at around 2:09pm I received a call from a number I didn't recognize, so, I didn't answer. I then received a robo-voicemail from a female voice claiming that in order to avoid appearing in front of a magistrate or judge for a federal offense against me, I needed to call them back immediately at 202-922-1203. The voice said it was their last attempt to contact me. I check the BBB Scam Tracker frequently, so I know that this is a scam. The voice didn't say what company or entity she/it represented and didn't use my name.

Type of a scam Rental

Found a list of rental homes on internet. Called the phone number with no answer. Immediately received a text of "Hello" "plz who is this". Text back that I was looking for a rental house. Over course of 2 days text, I was advised to go to home and call back with lock box serial number and then I would get the code. This I did not do. Requested my information, which I did not give. Request a $600 deposit, which I did not send. At each of the listed homes, there was a realtor sign in yard. They each confirmed a scam. I continue to receive texts from the scammer.

Received voicemail. Can’t make out the first couple words however. The thing that seems odd to me is the fact that they use “local cops” and not police. Lol. As in they will "call the local cops." I did not return call!

An unidentified representative called and asked if I was the owner of my business. As soon as I said yes she ended the call. I am uncertain as to the purpose of the call but it was clearly a scam of some kind. I am concerned that my confirmation of my business will be used for an unauthorized purpose.

(The rest of the call is did not come through).
