Spoofed number reports
The caller faked this number. The real owner may not know it is being used.
Sample data: every number, report and person on this demo is fictional.
Remember the number can be faked. Always call back on the number you know.
Caller said I qualify for a $900 grocery allowance on my Medicare plan if I verify my ID. Scam.
Got the fake fraud alert text, then a call 2 minutes later. Classic one-time-passcode scam.
Same call here. Thanks for posting, I almost picked up.
Very convincing. Asked me to "move my money to a safe account" because an employee was stealing. That is always a scam.

Very aggressive, would not take no for an answer. Health benefits scam.
Exact same thing happened to me last week.
Family emergency scam. They tell you not to tell anyone. Agree on a family code word.
Lottery claim email asking for my bank details and a copy of my driver's license. Identity theft attempt.
Caller ID showed my bank's name. They knew my last 4 digits. I hung up and called the number on my card: my bank never called me.
Text said "Did you attempt a purchase of $1,249.00? Reply YES or NO". Then this number called claiming to be my bank's fraud team and asked me to read back the code they just…
Someone texted me asking why I called them. I never did. Somebody is spoofing this number, so the real owner may be innocent.
Exact same thing happened to me last week.
Neighbor spoofing: same area code and first three digits as my own number. Robocall about lowering my credit card interest.
Remember the number can be faked. Always call back on the number you know.
