I had saw an announcement on social media that one can make money easily by investing and that there was only a minimum of one payment only! I would see recorded videos of others giving testimony that it was a legit negotiation, first they said that only one or two payments and then I would receive benefit in payment to my bank account, they asked for identification and shared identification of other people that they eventually have paid, only minimum posts of their "business". Other people replied to my comments asking about this and have said that it is true..

I'd theft act for it fraud

Have been calling at least once a week stating he is in the movie club and his bill will increase every month by $200. He did not provide any information to them but they do call frequently.

Standard free roofing inspection scam. Person on phone was incredibly pushy. I rejected him immediately.

Received a call and they started it off with can you hear me. I didn't respond and it stated they were having problems with their Bluetooth to hold on and then the call ended. I didn't respond or say yes I only said Hello.

I just started a Petsitting service and advertised on several online sources. They got my email from Craig’s List.

Wanted my dog sitting services 3 times per week for several weeks because they just received a contract for a private research company and wouldn’t have time. I gave them pricing info, which mine was lower than what they said could pay and then asked for my address, phone # and said their financial clerk would send me payment up front by check because they wouldn’t be available for a meet and greet. They never would give me their location and told them a meet and greet had to happen. Haven’t heard back since.

Unordered face masks received in mail. This occurred after recently compromised debit and credit card.

Received a voicemail with an automated message warning me that if I don't get in contact with unknown caller legal action will be taken against me.

Career Builder posts fake jobs. I was looking for a bookkeeping position. And I applied to 3 bookkeeping positions. I got 3 responses. None of them was bookkeeping. All were sales jobs. If I wanted a sales job I’d apply for one. Fake jobs. Don’t waste your precious time.

I’ve heard about the can you hear me scam, they want you to say yes so record your voice

calling me informing me my car insurance might be at risk. I hung up instantly after that because I have no car insurance, I have no car.

Ordered from this company, paid it by PayPal and didn’t receive a confirmation. Sent email to the address provided on website no response. Opened an investigation thru PayPal and received a UPS tracking number, they provided a notification of delivery but did not get the package. I called UPS and found that my name was not on the delivery orders or my address they would not provide location or name where delivered. This is a scam!

I was emailed from a Klarika Sankale from the email address [email protected], stating that I may qualify for a government forgiveness on a student loan and to contact her to apply. Now I know that the Department of Education does not send out open emails, but they send out letters through the mail. You can request emails but all they will do is notify you that there is a message and then you have to go online and go into your account with them in order to get the message. Then this morning I received a voicemail from a Danielle stating the same things and to contact her ASAP because my student loan forgiveness was about to expire. Well I haven't been a student for many many years, but I decided to call out of curiosity. I asked the man who answered the phone if I could speak with Danielle. He very unprofessionally said, "Uhhh, she's on the phone, but can I help you?" I said sure and he proceeded to ask me a lot of questions. I told him that I just wanted to hear what service it was that they were providing, and that my student loan was long since taken care of. The next thing I knew I was hung up on! I tried to call back but it just went to a voice message that was requesting a number of bits of information. I hung up.

Received a call saying I will be charged $349 for Best Buy computer warranty. Spoke to a ‘representative’ from unknown company, he would not disclose what company he represented but insisted I get in front of a computer to cancel the ‘pending charge.’ After he realized I would not go along with this, he abruptly hung up. Folks, beware of this scam. Sounds legitimate for a second but easy to determine that they only wanted PII from me and access to my computer remotely. Complete scam!

They have called at lest 6 time to the HEART Program(a non-profit) wanting us to call them to clear up an issue with our "VISA" card, which we don't have.

Saying I have a arrest warrant against me and I agreed to pay back and never did.

Caller claimed to be taking donations for Veterans & Fallen Fire Fighters

A message left on my answering machine was: "the second you hear this message, you need to leave your work aside so we can discuss your case and take the necessary action. Please stand by for the next federal agent, if we do not hear from you, we will be forced to take legal action against you. Press 1 for the concerned department."

I don't know what this is about, nor do I have any legal cases pending against me. The message did not state my name, so suspect this is a general message sent out to potential victims who may fall for this scam.

I just got this too, have you heard anything more?

- San Jose, CA, USA

This scammer impersonated my boss and even said things that by boss says, He told me that he was in a meeting and needed me to get him some $200 Google Play gift cards for all 5 participants in the meeting and he would reimburse me as soon as he was out of the meeting. I asked if I should drive to the office and deliver them, but he said that wasn’t necessary because all he needed was the codes and to just take pictures and email it to him. So I didn’t think nothing of it and went to buy the cards and sent him the redemption codes, but then the scammer got greedy and blew his cover by telling me that he also needed to add a $200 eBay gift cards for all 5 of them as well. This was unlike my boss, as he would have been up front with me from the beginning about the eBay cards when he asked me for the Google Play gift cards. At this point it was time to call a coworker to find out if he knew anything about this meeting - on a Saturday. My boss is a workaholic and has been known to work 7 days a week straight. But of unfortunately there was no meeting. I called my boss and verified. One thing I forgot to do once it was time to send the codes, was to start a new email and select my boss’s email address from my contacts instead of just replying to the scammer, which if I had just clicked around on my boss’s name (since the email address is always replaced by their actual name) I would’ve noticed that it wasn’t his email address. It was [email protected] instead. All email apps should list the senders address like Microsoft Outlook does. But from now on when I’m using mobile apps like the default mail app on iPhone, I will just always have to click on the name of the person which will open up a hidden fly out carat > and if you click on that it will show the real email address. Very simple and quick, and just gives you the extra insurance that you are communicating with who you think you are. This won’t work if your boss’s email is being driven my someone else, but it could stop you from falling into their trap before you send them any money. In this case, it was just my boss’s address book that had been hacked and the scammer had all the emails for each employee and their full names and positions in the company. They will always impersonate the boss. At least I didn’t fall for the trap twice, I caught on to him before I sent anything else. So there went $1,000 down the drain. But it is a lesson to be learned, and I just hope that no one else will lets this happen to them. And if this article keeps even one person from getting scammed like this, I will be happy. Please just check your email addresses of who you’re communicating with before ever sending any money.
