Scammers are some how using this +911 number to make us think it is the police.

Type of a scam Debt Collections

i have been receiving emails claiming that I owe a debt close to $8,000. Before that the debt was about $4,000. The latest email, as of May 4, 2016, claims that the debt was due January 1, 2016, and that legal proceedings will be taken against me if I do not pay up. It is always a different person who signs these emails. There is no name of a business or individual to whom I am supposed to be in debt. No letterhead nor any other identification or explanation of services or goods sent. Yet the threat of legal action is real. I always delete the message, and lately have put a block on the message. Don't know if that will help because it always seems to be a different messenger. Is there anything that I can do to stop this? I don't owe any money to anyone and my household and credit card bills get paid on time.

Victim Location 55113
Type of a scam Phishing

The caller (sounded like a computer) left a message on my answering machine stating that his name was James Kaston and that I should call him at 281-949-6101 about a "Criminal Enforcement Action by the US Treasury." The instruction was to "cooperate so Mr. Kaston could help me."

The caller never asked for me by name. This is obviously a scam meant to scare people into divulging personal information of some kind.

I did not call the number (281-949-6101) and instead am reporting this scam.

Type of a scam Credit Cards

I received a recorded message from telephone number 305-602-9282 saying that Heather from my bank was calling about my credit card; saying nothing was wrong but was offering a lower interest rate on my card. However, the caller did not mention my bank by name. The message said that I could lower my interest rate by pressing "1" and talking to a representative. I did not press "1" and hung up because I suspected a scam because my bank was not mentioned name. Additionally, the call came over my cell phone and not my home phone. I normally conduct business with my bank over my home phone. Because I didn't press "1" I do not know if the call involved an attempt to take money.

Received call from 302-333-4359 (Wilmington, DE) which automated call claiming to be IRS and I had been sued. Recorded voice left same number for me to call back to get details about claim. I called back immediately they were unable to find my name and phone number and said they called me by mistake.

I received a call from the same number 3 hours later and it showed as coming from Greece they left a voice message with the same number for me to call back for claim information. I called back and asked to be removed from the call list. The same man answered the phone as I spoke to before (he had an accent) I asked again to be removed from the list he said "but I've missed you" the call was highly unusual and unprofessional. I informed the individual I did not want to be called again, he said "ok talk to you later."

Type of a scam Tax Collection

the scammer called and told me I owe $11,780 to the IRS for the years from 2003 to 2008. He said his name was Tyler Brown. He told me to go to Walgreens and buy $800 in iTunes cards and to bring the cards to him at 430 N. Wabasha St. He also told me he was sending someone to me house to arrest me and take me away in handcuffs. He also told me he had sent me two registered letters on Sept 16, 2015 and on Dec 9, 2015 and claimed he had photos of notices on my door about these letters. He then told me not to call my accountant. I thought that was strange, and did call my accountant and he told me it was a scam. He did ask for the last for digits for my Social Security number. I did give him that information. But, because I was so confused at the time, I MIGHT have also typed in my entire Social Security number. PLEASE HELP! Can you arrest him before he moves away?
