Another Phone Scam

Like the call I had from "revenue Canada" that unless I called right away the police would arrest me for tax fraud. Delete....

There are some scammer that will use the scare tactics of calling the police or shutting down your computer. I just hang up the phone and have a good laugh.

There must be some people who fall for it or they would not be trying this scam. Good for you being one of the smart ones.

Dummy scammers and their scare tactics.

Never heard of that one before. At least the smarter ones try to get a name first

I have been getting the same scam call the past 3 days. Something about a criminal complaint has been filed against you and you need to call this number to avoid prosecution. They had stopped for awhile, but now it has started up again. If you press the pound key rapidly sometimes the robo call will kick out your number. It's one way to stop the calls. It is really annoying, I just want to call them back and say "really?"

Well done, do not even reply back, delete the message.

Don't ever call those numbers back as they will charge you thousands apparently just by phoning that number. If they really want you they will contact you again. If in doubt ring your own bank not from numbers in emails or posts.

There's two scam phone calls I get just about every day, and even though I block the numbers from which the calls came, they keep coming under different phone numbers. I never answer the calls, so it always ends up going to voicemail. The first one says that there are 4 serious allegations against me, and so I must respond immediately to clear up my name. The second...and my favorite, is a scam that's in Chinese! Even if I answered the call, I wouldn't understand a word that was being said! The auto-robot voice on the voicemail is entirely in Chinese! lol

I received a text yesterday that said I had recently applied for a rent to own with them and they need to verify my number and also put a stop and opt statement on it. Nope. If I do that, it will let them know I'm legit. They had a link to press as well which I didn't but I'm sure there are those that will think someone is renting or getting something in their name and go for it.

I hate getting calls like that. Hope it was just a scam call or wrong person call.

I have a serial scammer, calls almost daily, they have hijacked a local number, so they say

How to know when it is scan?

,,,its a scam indeed,.

There are so many of those phone scams around right now. At least fortunately, most of the time, they don't leave a message.

People are so evil to take advantage using different types of scams. Don't they know how to find a decent job at all?

Nothing else to do than deleting the call.

oh no. people nowadays really do anything to fool people.

I think you should contact the bank officials.

Well, I suggest you to just ignore those calls and maybe just block the numbers. Almost everyday I could read reports and warnings filed by people at social media and some sites like about similar scams. I think we should have been familiar with such scams by now.
