The 623 area code is dealing with aggressive real estate cold calls and American Express impersonators. Callers harass you to sell your property or pretend to be your bank to steal credit card details.
Predatory home buyers send unsolicited cash offers and escalate to violent threats if the victim declines.
"His response was multiple hateful texts, threatening to come to my house and 'fuck my family to death'"
Spoofed numbers cite urgent fraudulent activity to trick victims into verifying full SSNs and card numbers.
"They claim to be American Express asking for someone and trying to get in contact with them. I dont know how they got a hold of my number. They also called my brother doing the same thing a week apart."
Callers threaten severe drug trafficking charges linked to an SSN to extract identity data for resolution.
"...the man insisted I give him my name and address I said you tell me what my social security number is he selling me the pharaoh authorities are involved that my number has been used for drug trafficking a very serious offense and hes there to help me out a total scam..."
Recorded messages threaten imminent workplace document service for vague legal allegations to force callbacks.
"I keep getting a call from a Susan Mullens (recorded message)contacting me stating she is calling in regards to legal allegations being filed against me and a process servcer will be contacting me to serve at work or home if I do not respond."
Callers exploit leaked medical history to push free pain creams and braces to commit Medicare billing fraud.
"These people had my medical info, prescription information, and address. They asked for both the last 4 social security numbers and if I could verify my doctor's name. I refused and hung up. Where did they get this information?"
Phantom debt collectors refuse validation and use "Can you hear me?" to record verbal consent for fake debts.
"Scam Debt collector out collecting debts that don't actually exist. They won't tell you who they are, they try to bait an yes or okay from you so they can manipulate their recording to say you agreed to collection of a debt."
