Fortunately, her daughter moved her to be near her and took over her mother's bank account, etc.

At the last minute, she decided to send the money after all and went to Western Union and sent her whole SS amount for the month! Then she had to phone her daughter to get $$ for rent, food, utilities, etc.

So she tore up the check but kept thinking about it. So she wrote a personal check for it and I told her not to send it because it was a scam. The $700.00 was to be refunded with her winnings. I have a friend who received a call telling her she had just won an enormous amount of money but that she had to send $700.00 to get it. My fake social security number were those numbers I wish I could have gone through it all but had to leave for a meeting.ĭO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE ANY OF YOUR REAL INFORMATION I was transferred to a supervisor Gary Cole (like Coleman so another actor) badge #901676 His voice went up a bit as he knew he had a good one. They asked for my bank balance and I said $80,000 in cash as I don't trust securities. I reiterated I trusted the government and they said "thats good Mary ' I had to write things down so I remembered the false info I gave them. They verified my DOB, State in which I lived and address too-which were all false. They were able to verify I was who I said I was-Which is false. You know it is a fraud when you use a fake name, mine was Mary Smith and fake last 4 digits of SS# 8381 Which they told me would result in an arrest warrant being sworn out for me. I was able to get all the way to the supervisor before I hung up My first encounter was with Robin Jackman (like the actor I said and he said yes) badge #9812167 I called back and obtained a great deal of information If you get one of these calls, tell the FTC at ftc.gov/complaint. Or your bank account or credit card number.

Never give any part of your Social Security number to anyone who contacts you.

Even if the wait time is long, confirm with the real SSA before responding to one of these calls. If you’re worried about what the caller says, hang up and call 1-80 to speak to the real SSA.

The real SSA number is 1-80, but scammers are putting that number in the caller ID.

Anyone who tells you to do those things is a scammer.

SSA will never call to threaten your benefits or tell you to wire money, send cash, or put money on gift cards.

And your bank accounts are not about to be seized. You don’t have to verify your number to anyone who calls out of the blue.

Your Social Security number is not about to be suspended.

Oh, and your caller ID often shows the real SSA phone number (1-80) when these scammers call – but they’re faking that number. (Often, that involves putting your money on gift cards and giving him the codes – which, of course, means that your money is gone.) Sometimes, he’ll say your bank account is about to be seized – but he’ll tell you what to do to keep it safe. Sometimes, the scammer wants you to confirm your SSN to reactivate it. Scammers are saying your Social Security number (SSN) has been suspended because of suspicious activity, or because it’s been involved in a crime. Your browser does not support the audio element. Here’s what one of those scam calls sound like: So far THIS year: more than 35,000 people have reported the scam, and they tell us they’ve lost $10 million.

To compare: in 2017, we heard from 3,200 people about SSA imposter scams, and those people reported losing nearly $210,000. Earlier this month, we told you about a growing scam: people pretend to be from the Social Security Administration (SSA) and try to get your Social Security number or your money.
