I just got a call, I believe I was targeted, probably the yes scam. Person on other end had my name. Instead of asking if this was "name", they just said, Name, and I responded yes, because they said my name and I am expecting a call. After that they hung up. I am now waiting to see what becomes of this call.

received a voicemail saying they reviewed my online resume and had open positions working with "Amazon" listing products and posting reviews that paid anywhere from $17-$32 hr. Female said to apply today as they are only hiring 23 people and to apply to "stockretail.org". I looked at their site which immediately looked suspicious. Also, it seems they have different names, i.e. "stockretail.com" etc. The positions are not on a job site with job description but rather a scam for you to pay for a training kit. I checked the Amazon site and they have no such jobs listed. This is a scam!

I keep receiving messages on my answering machine from 612-254-1548 intended for various individuals from this company. I have informed them that this is the ***  family private phone number @*** and have asked them to remove my number from their system

so that I do not keep getting messages but they keep calling. They have called for past three days in a row. It sounds like they are some type of collection agency. Is there anything you can do to help stope their calls?

Voicemail as follows:

Sage will be an additional second attempt to avoid initial appearance before magistrate judge or the grand jury for a federal criminal offense. My number is 914-556-1297. I repeat it's 914-556-1297. Do not disregard this message and do return the call. Now if you don't return the call and I don't hear from your attorney either then the only thing I can do is wish you a good luck as the situation unfolds on you. Goodbye.

Received call asking if car advertised on Craigslist was still for sale, responded with "yes", and call was ended. Same phone number then texted me saying they were interested but wanted me to send a vin report thru email. I replied that I would not send an email but they asked again that I send the email.

They keep harassing me with voicemails and telling me that I need to press a number to not be contacted but it doesnt work and they keep advertising loan forgiveness and preapproval for loans but I am an underage minor.

- Northwood, OH, USA

Says her name is Chloe Bennett. Pretends to be a law office (will not say a name) pretending I have a court ordered summons (will not say for what or why or who) then says I will be served at my home or place of employment. If I need to reschedule or have any questions I need to contact "the plaintiffs office" at 737-200-2811. You call that number and after a few rings you get elevator music and it prompts you to leave a message but does not say the name of company. They have called me several times ( the person pretending to be Chloe Bennett) when you call the 855-832-1416 number back it goes straight to voicemail. They even called my relatives claiming I have a court summons. Which I do not. Scam

Person with foreign accent claims to be medicare, mentions an injury and says I can have (something unintelligible ) "at no cost to you." When you call the number back right away it's disconnected.

This person called and tricked me into saying Yes and then hung up immediately. I believe this is a "Can you hear me" phone scam.

these people called and said I would be arrested if I did not call back so I called back using my office number which basically shows nothing and they kept hanging up on me and every time I called them they would not speak to me. They would just keep hanging up.

My grandmother called me this morning. She said her cellphone rang and she missed the call and my cellphone number appeared as the missed call, so she was calling me back. Only my cellphone was turned off and halfway across my house from me when the call occurred.

BBB has a scam listed where scammers call YOU from YOUR number but this was scary. Everyone always says "Don't answer unless it's a familiar number" but this scammer used a familiar number to call her!!

Received recorded robo phone call twice today (June 25, 2018) from 972-232-7949 advising me that my social secuirty number was reported as involved with a crime and giving me an area code 972 phone number to call in order to keep my benefits from being stopped. I did not write down or call the number as I assume this is just a phishing scam to get my SSN! But who knows how many easy targets may call them!

My mother (80) received info from a friend on Facebook that said she received a lot of money after making an initial investment. My mother thought since her friend has won, maybe she would as well.

"They" indeed said she was a lucky winner and that if she gave them a certain amount, she would receive a "package" with more than her initial investment. This started out back in Nov. 2017. Since then, they have received over $40,000+ in ITunes cards and an additional $30,000+ in Western Union and TD Bank Deposits. They requested her account information, (which she provided) and a copy of her credit card (also provided).

To date, they are still texting her stating if she makes one last payment, she will get her "package". They have even tried scaring her by sending her pictures of her house (which we, my sister and I know they were taken from Google maps). My sister went to put a fraud alert on the account from TD Bank, and they (the scammers) know this was done.

We have all the paperwork, information, on where the money was sent, receipts, account number, names but it is all on her cell phone in text form and I have tried endlessly to retrieve with no luck.

Since they are still contacting her, I am afraid they will try to harm her in some sort of a way. Please reach out to me as soon as you can, I am very afraid for her since she lives alone and we now feel she has cognitive issues with how she trusts. Thank you!. I have attached a copy of what I have sent to the FBI.

Happened two different times, two nights in a row. I received Messenger invitations from friends on my Facebook account. I keep my Facebook security level where only my FB friends can see my information, photos or posts. My two friends did not. I clicked on their invitations to chat on Messenger (forgetting that they had already connected with me on Messenger a few years ago). This happened late in the evening local time, about 11:00 PM on both occasions. Both times the message started with "Hello. How are you doing?" I and then launched into a long message like "Have you heard about the new federal grant to help people with disabilities, old people, sick people, people with mortgages.." etc. etc., and then went on about this $75,000.00 available for free (yep, I knew for sure then) that you do not have to pay back. You just require the messenger's assistance to obtain this money the very next day by special delivery. LOL. Mr. such and such will assist you. That's as far as I let it go, but I am sure the next step would have been to send this Mr. such and such a money order or check, or give him your bank account details. I ended the first conversation at that point and reported it to Facebook via the app. the next night, I knew what was going on and so I immediately asked my "friend" what my maiden name is (the real friend would have known this) and the messenger blocked me. I again reported the incident to Facebook. Both my real friends had their Facebook security set on "Public", which means anyone can view and copy their profile picture and their exact name and create a duplicate account pretending to be the real friends. They then send all the friends of the person's profile that they copied a Messenger invitation (and they can view all the friends of anyone who's FB security is set to "Public". Their invitation shows up with your real friend's photo and everything, so it is easy to think it is your friend the first time it happens. I believe this is what happened. I guess it is the latest scam to come from Nigeria (Facebook later let me know the first caller had logged into Messenger from a phone in Nigeria). As mentioned above, my FB account security is set to where only my friends can view my details. To do this, open up your FB account and go to your profile. Select 'Settings and Privacy' and scroll down to 'Privacy', then 'Privacy Settings'. this is where you control who can see your posts and contents. Open up each link on this page and make sure you choose settings that make sure only your FB friends can view your account, all the way through to 'Who can see your friends list?' and set that to 'only me'. T took screen shots of the conversations and posted them here and on FB also. I covered the name and profile picture of my FB friend.

had 2 phone calls- saying my SS# is tied to Criminal activity! No Way! Call this phone number-before they file Legal action. DO NOT REPLY TO THIS!

For VIN number and debit card I put a advertisement on Craigslist and this person called me but instantly hung up and told me to send them a history report on he car. And they wanted me to pay for it. After searching online I found out that the person was trying to scam me either for a Vin number and also for credit card information right before it processed information I quickly exited the website of the fake vin history report. At this point I don’t know if it processed or what I should do at this point need help.

An automated voice mail stated that it was my last chance to purchase a warranty on my new vehicle and I needed to call it back to make a purchase on the warranty.

- Omaha, NE, USA

Wasn't listening but responded to their query "are you there?" with a yes.

I received a voice mail of an automated system saying I would be arrested at my house in 1 hour if I did not call this number back. It stated the IRS filed a law suit against me and I would be arrested. This number calls me multiple times a day.

- Clarksville, TN, USA
