The Department of Justice supposedly just called and a man named "Jerry" who sounded of Indian or Pakistani origin (thick accent) asked if a V.M. (name obscured in case this is real) were here. I was busy and got his number to call him back. The phone number is 814-289-8211. I called back and got another foreign-sounding individual on the phone. He transferred me to "Agent Jerry's" office.
Upon reconnecting with "Agent Jerry", I told him she doesn't work here (never heard of her). I asked him how a foreigner could get that kind of work in the DOJ and he indignantly asked me why I would have a problem with a foreigner working in the Dept. of Justice. I told him I grew up overseas and have traveled the world and other countries don't allow that. We quickly ended the phone call because it was obvious we weren't going to agree.

Scam. ALWAYS google the number before returning a call.
That number is in Somerset, PA....
LOL A few years ago I got a call from FBI agent Bob. When I asked his badge number he told me it was 001.
I Googled it any DOJ didn’t come up. I would suppose any government office would show up on a Google check. Sounds suspicious.
(in Hindi accent) “Sir you are wanted by the US government. Send $10,000 US dollars to PO Box 123 New Jersey and we will drop the charges! No checks or money orders. Cash only.”
I have customers from the FBI and when they call from work the caller id comes up 000-000-0000 so I would watch out. Sounds like a scam.....
Hey, with this regime, I wouldn’t be surprised if the caller wasn’t a member of the Muzzie Brotherhood division of the DOJ.
Mine is 007
He hung up because you caught him.....really the DOJ called....they would come in person.
The DOJ website shows no office in Somerset PA

He could have at least tried harder at being believable. He could have used James and 007.
Have you heard about Jerry?

PS Jewel Brown is still singing. She says she gave you her best, now here's the rest. She still has her voice.
Here’s my take. Its always a scam until proved otherwise.
I once had a fake try to collect tax money from me.
its a scam, I’d screw with him
I teach government at the local college.
Had a student of mine relate that she didn’t turn in her research paper because when she opened her email to send the paper to me, she had an email from the FBI.
This email, she says, stated she was being watched by the FBI and they determined she was not a threat to the US. In order to remove her name from the watch list, she had to click on a link in the email, enter her personal identification and bank information.
She panicked and did exactly what “they” told her to do. . . and promptly had her ID stolen and all her funds in the bank went bye-bye.
She is a nice person, basically, but because she is one of Holder’s people, she told me, she felt targeted by the FBI before and wanted it to all go away. . .
Sheesh.
