I doubt the call actually came from anywhere in the usa.

You did not spook?

We dumped our landline a couple of years ago and no longer have that problem.

Mine was the “IRS”. I knew it wasn’t the IRS because it ended with “May God have mercy on your soul” on the message. First, I know the IRS are a buncha’ soul-less cretins so I know it wasn’t the IRS. 2nd, how many IRS agent named “Bill Richardson” speaks with an Indian accent?

I got one of those calls saying I missed a court hearing and had to pay a fine . Lol ! Whenever I get those calls now I always stay on so I can berate the person and waste their time. Its really a pain that scammers can call your cellphone at Will now. I used to get the fake electric company calling for my restaurant and they would say I needed a gift card to pay it. 👎😂

Yes, I get the same calls. Also, someone is desperate to clean my air ducts.

These calls have found my cell phone and are really annoying. The bigger problem is they must be finding people who bite or there wouldn't be so many of them. I've heard about cases involving elderly people who believe these scam artists and give out their information.

I get all kinds of weird robocalls. I’m sick to death of the government and telephone companies sitting on their behind. They have technology to prevent spoofing. Why don’t they?

I got one about a month ago.

As soon as I heard them say “Department of Social Security”, I hung up. The real one is “The Social Security Administration”, not that, even identifying themselves correctly would mean you should not be careful.

If you get the max SS payout and are within a year of retirement, SS could be sending their assassins out for you.

I've been getting calls like that too.

Everyday.

They're going to impound my bank account and garnish my wages.😂

Two weeks ago I got a robo-call saying my checking account was being used for fraudulent and federally criminal activity and they needed my PIN# to verify I was the account holder.

C’mon crooks, that’s just too obvious.

I had to pay off the IRS during one of these calls, but that’s OK—I know a guy in Nigeria who’s going to be sending me millions any day now.

I get ten telemarketer calls a day. They all come from not just my area code but from our county, at least the phone says so. They have rendered my phone useless. I had to go through multiple menus to turn off all the chimes, buzzers, and dings. But I finally got it. Now I have a mechanical secretary. If you want to talk to me leave a message. Sometimes I get those “Call us or the (LEO of the week) will be arriving with warrants” or “Your bank account has been compromised...” and they actually leave the message. I saw something the other day that said the goobermint can’t stop it because they are calling from foreign countries. Right.

I generally ignore calls that come from phone numbers I don’t know. I’m averaging approx one of such calls about every 2 days.

You should probably try to stop being a criminal.
The drugs and the human trafficking... cut that out.
Also, if you have a blog you might want to delete it.

Get yourself straight and fly right.

I keep getting the one where it says I owe the IRS and that this matter must be handled immediately.

It’s such a poor, laughable recording that I don’t know how anyone falls for it.

To: Kevin in California; y'all

IMPORTANT y'all record the scammer's telephone number!

Then report it to FBI.

Record the conversation if possible.

I’ve gotten those calls and many more like it from the “IRS”.
