Scammers using the 385 area code often pose as Discover Card collectors or IRS agents. They use fear of debt or legal trouble to steal your financial information and money.
Daily 8:00 AM phishing calls seeking individuals who don't reside there to steal identity data from good-standing accounts.
"They say they are from discover card and that I owe money and need to pay. I called discover directly and they say they didn't call and I'm in good standing. They call repeatedly everyday."
Threatens arrest by a magistrate, fabricating claims of SSN money laundering linked to fake April 2020 letters.
"Received a call from a white woman, american. Unlike many of the calls from scammers. Said she was calling from the IRS about a letter I wrote in April 2020...This sent my red flags up because I never sent a letter. Then she said she would like to resolve the matter but needed to confirm my social. I hung up"
Feigns familiarity via text/voicemail (claiming they "rode past your house") to aggressively push lowball cash flips.
"Just got a voicemail from a person named John. He said he just bought property near mine and looked up my number online and wanted to buy it for cash and pay for closing costs."
Bombards users with "specialist" auto-recordings regarding expired warranties on cars they don't even own.
"Somehow the warranty on my vehicle is about to expire when I don't even own a car. Scam."
Requests non-tax-deductible credit card donations over the phone, pocketing funds intended for state troopers or veterans.
"CLAIMING TO BE FROM 'FUNDRAISING CTR FOR NATL VETERANS ASSISTANCE PACT' - But the last part of his speech said 'any donations given are NOT TAX DEDUCTIBLE' Can you say SCAM????"
