Common Area Code 615 Phone Scams

Nashville's 615 area code is seeing a mix of fake legal summons and aggressive real estate calls. Scammers try to panic you with court documents or push you into selling your property.

Callers claiming to be officers like "Tom DeCarlo" from "Direct Capital" or "Brian Baker" say they will file a legal claim against your Social Security Number and serve papers at your home or workplace unless you call back by their deadline. They reference fake "case numbers" and refuse to provide their company's mailing address or license number. They use your personal information to open new accounts or sell your data to other scammers. Real process servers do not call first. They show up.

"Announced himself as Tom DeCarlo, an officer of Direct Capital. Says he's calling about a legal claim his office will soon file against my social security number. He wants to speak with either me or my counsel...Says, 'this is a time sensitive matter; in order for this to not go into a legal setting, they need to hear from me by close of business tomorrow.'"

Aggressive "We Want to Buy Your House" Calls

Callers using names like "Marcus" or "Kyle" claim they "just drove by your property" and want to make a cash offer, sometimes lying about a "proposal sent in the mail" you never received. They know your address from public property records but are vague about who they work for and pressure you for a quick, unsolicited cash sale. They use your confirmation that you own the property to add you to telemarketing lists and sell your information to other companies. The "I just drove by" line is a script used on thousands of calls across the state.

"Hey, this is Marcus. I was reaching back out to you. I sent you an offer in the mail a few weeks back, and I haven't heard back from you. I just drove past the property again this morning. I really want this thing...Give me a call my office 615-560-8223."

Social Security & Medicare Scams

Automated calls threaten to "suspend" your Social Security Number due to fraudulent activity, or callers pretending to be Medicare advisors offer "free" medical supplies like back braces if you provide your Medicare number. Caller ID may show "SSI" to appear official. They use your Social Security or Medicare numbers to steal benefits, open accounts, or commit medical fraud. The Social Security Administration does not suspend SSNs and contacts you by mail, not phone calls.

"Scam message stating that it was from Social Security Admin & that my social security number had been suspended, due to "fraudulent activity". Asked me to "press one" for more info. Call came from Ashland City, TN."

Fake IRS Arrest Warrant Threat

Aggressive robocalls claim there are "4 serious allegations pressed on your name" and that local police are on their way to arrest you for back taxes, demanding immediate payment via gift card or wire transfer to avoid arrest. They use your panic to steal money through untraceable payment methods. The IRS contacts you by mail first, never threatens immediate arrest, and never demands payment by phone.

"This is an IRS tax scam. They called to tell me that the police are going to arrest me and that my drivers license has been suspended for back taxes."

Expiring Auto Warranty Robocalls

Automated calls create false urgency about your "expiring auto warranty," pressuring you to "press 1" to speak with a "specialist" to avoid losing coverage, without mentioning your car's specific make or model. They sell you expensive, worthless third-party service contracts that provide little to no actual coverage. Pressing any button confirms your number is active and leads to more calls.

"Repeatedly getting an auto-dialed call from this number. 'Expiring auto warranty' or somesuch nonsense. I block one number and get another call next day from the same group using the next phone number in digit sequence. Grrrrrrrr!"

Fake Amazon & Apple Purchase Alerts

Robocalls alert you to large fraudulent purchases like an "Apple I phone" on your Amazon account and instruct you to "press 1" to cancel the order, connecting you with fake representatives who steal your login credentials or credit card information. They use your account details to make real purchases or sell your information to other criminals. Amazon and Apple send order notifications through email and their official apps, never through automated phone calls.

"Left recorded message saying that there was an order for an Apple I phone posted to my Amazon account. There wasn't."
