Social Security Account Suspended? Robocall from a GA#(VANITY)
vanity | 11-10-20 | Chuckster

Posted on 11/10/2020 10:52:03 AM PST by Chuckster

This morning, I received two robocalls from a Georgia number. The recording, a female voice with an oddly foreign, non-southron accent, said my SS account has been suspended and to call a phone number immediately.

IMO, clearly a scam call. I believe the SS Admin would contact me by mail if there were any problems, not by phone.

Yes I agree, ignore it. If you are really concerned though, call your local SSA office and ask them about it.

Exactly. Ignore. Unless you want to mess around with them and waste their time. 😁

Its a scam. Another scam call I’ve gotten recently involved someone saying the electric would be cut off.

I get those on a regular basis. ‘Bout once every week or two.
I wish I could strike back somehow.

It’s a SCAM but hey why not have some fun with it, start searching for a valid SS# of one of your Local Politicians, then call back and pretend to be them.
