Type of a scam Tax Collection

I just received a phone call and the voicemail on the other end, telling me that they`re was a criminal investigation going on in my name for tax invasion and that I owed the government money. I had to call the following number 1-613-416-9170. So my first reaction was to check the phone # and nothing showed up therefore I had to post this phone conversation.

Type of a scam Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes

good morning - I constantly get phone calls on my cell phone from an unknown unwanted caller. I've blocked each phone number with my cell phone provider but yet continue to receive calls. The caller phone numbers are from the same area code and the next 3 digits are the same as my cell phone number with the 4 last digits being different each time. The first time I received the call, I answered and lead me to believe there was a live person on the other end. It was a recording congratulating me on some type of vacation that I won. When I see the similar numbers calling repeatedly again, I don't answer. This is a constant invasion, the calls I get are during my working hours for my employer and the US government needs to take aggressive action and shut down the culprit/s.

Type of a scam Tech Support

I received a phone call which my smart phone listed as being from Utah. When I answered, the person had a very pronounced India accent. When I told them their accent was too thick and I couldn't understand it, they paused and then continued to talk. I hung up. I received another phone call from the same number soon there after. This was also an India accented voice but was understandable. They said they were with computer maintenance. At that point, I said I wasn't interested and hung up. I'm sure they would have asked for a credit card but I didn't give them the chance.

Type of a scam Credit Cards

I received an automated message from 413-626-9222 that had no identified business or vendor name. The call reported an offer to reduce my credit card rate. I pressed the button to speak with a representative to be taken off the list. The agent was rude and seemed to be slurring their words. They continued to ask why I wanted to be taken off the list as I repeatedly stated that I was not interested in their services. After two minutes of back and forth I hung up and blocked the number. The whole exchange seemed suspicious and a scam.

Thanks for your business,

I informed my customer that this was not from us because their account was up to date on our end. Chambers sends Invoices with our contact information, logo in an invoice format not like they sent our customer. Also I do not begin my invoices with Good Day...Our invoices like I said are more formatted...I did not click on the link because I was suspicious and did not want to catch a virus if that was the case. I informed the customer of the matter and we both ran a virus scan to check our computer.

Type of a scam Credit Cards

someone called me at 6:30 am on 8/16/2017 from 808-348-2741 in reference to lowering my credit card interest rates. I have no credit card at all. I have a debit card mastercard but that's it. After I repeatedly told the person I don't have any credit cards, he referred to a mastercard and I told him the same thing which is true, I have no credit cards. He then hung up on me. He sounded to have a indian or middle eastern accent and the background noise of people talking was very loud. I'm not exactly sure what they were trying to get at, maybe to steal my private personal info, but he didn't get very far with me. But I wouldn't want another person to get tricked by this obvious scam.

Have received this call many times. I usually hang up. They tell me my warranty on car is about to run out. I don't have warrants on any of my vehicles. This time the call woke me from a nap and I thought if I answered the question about my milage I would be able to talk to a live person and tell them to take me off their call list. As soon as I said yes, the call was ended.

Calls seem random and not on a schedule. Leaves voicemails.

Type of a scam Identity Theft

Call starts off with a bit of static, then a woman's voice comes on and says something like "oh, Im so sorry I was breaking up there, can you hear me now?" Then they ask several yes or no questions about "you or a family member suffering from a chronic illness, pain or any other medical conditions" several times. This is one of those scams where they get you to say "Yes" so they can authorize charges.
