phone scam
 

i just got a call from someone saying they were my neighbor and a package addressed to me got delivered to him,i said what neighbor,he said can i open it,i said no,he said dont worry about it it,s in the trash and then he hung up.im sure it is one of those phone scams where if you call back a big charge is put on your bill so i texted that it was a nice try scammer.the text could not be delivered and i know better to call the number.anyone else get one of these calls?

Nope, but thanks for the head's up. I never heard of that one.

My wife got one (call)at home this past week saying we have a virus on the computer. Indian lady said Can you log in and we'll fix it from here.

WTF ??????????

their trying anything to steal your info.

You see... Drones.

Haven't heard that one yet. Do once in a while get the we're suing you for using a money access store blah blah but will settle for x amount to keep it from becoming worse...

Of course.

i got one of these calls -
i played along, pretending to type in everything he told me to,,,,,,,,and boy he was getting excited.......got to the last command..
He says -now read me exactly what is on the screen.....

Word for word? -i ask
yes, please

ok, in all caps, it says ....stop trying to hack my computer you f'ing piece of ****.

He hung up, jeez i was only trying to help

UPDATE,the alledged phone scam happened again but now for the good news,i found out yesterday that it was a prank played on me from another oso member who is a friend of mine.he really had me going thinking i was victom of identity theft.
