Yes.

It is a scam to get you to give them your info.

I like to have fun with them.

Caller (in thick accent): Can I have your name please?

Me: Absolutely, Neuman, Alfred E. (spelling it all out as I go)

Caller: Can I please verify your date of birth?

Me: Absolutely, February 29, 1964 (making sure I point out that it was a leap year)

Caller: Thank you, can I please verify the last four digits of your social

Me: Absolutely, 6969

Caller: No, that can't be right, can you please repeat that?

Me: yes, it actually is 6969. It is a special number issued because I was born on a leap day.

Caller: I am not sure that it is right can you give me the entire number?

Me: Sure, 696-96-6969

Caller: Are you sure?

Me: Yes, I am absolutely sure that you are a fucking scam artist and that you should pound sand.

Normally I am unable to complete the last sentence before they hang up.


You can't stop them so you might as well have fun with them and the more you keep them distracted, that is just one person that they don't have time to fuck with that might be gullible enough to believe their garbage.
@goliathtree I got this same call I told them to go ahead and cancel my social security number then I woukdnt gave to ever pay bills again since I technically would no longer exsist they never called me again after that lol

Scammers trying to get you to tell them your SS# so they can sell it

@cherokeepatti Yeah most likely. 👍

Yes. It's funny that that's supposed to be a bad thing. (Go ahead and erase me 😆)
But elderly people fall for that because they're trying to keep out of trouble, then get ripped off. And that makes me sad. Damn scam calls.

Oh, call back and they’ll tell you how you can pay your back-owed taxes with Applebee’s gift cards 🙄

Suspending your social security???

That sounds like bullshit, I would disregard.

I got a robot lady saying mine was used at the southern border.

🙄
FurryFace · 61-69, M
nope that happens when you're dead i think
nakedguy · 70-79, M
I get those often. They will call me, I block the call, and they leave me alone for awile. It is usually a big, loud guy saying there has been fraudulent activity on my ss number and there has been a warrant issued for my arrest. I need to call them to stay out of jail.
SageWanderer · 70-79, M
I get rotating phone calls. Either my social security number has been compromised, my car warranty has expired or did I register to vote yet.

@nakedguy I should get a quote in my 65’ Ferrari 275 GTB.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@SageWanderer no warrants for your arrest that must be paid off with money orders?
SageWanderer · 70-79, M
@cherokeepatti I haven’t had one of them for awhile. They haven’t worked around their number being blocked yet.
Tell them to go ahead and cancel it if you no longer exsist then you no longer have to pay bills they wont bother you after that I got the same call and told them that they havent bothered me since

Last year I got a call from this person that said I owned money on my taxes. I had to give them my credit card number or the police would arrest me. Been over a year I'm still waiting

I don’t get social security so it wouldn’t work
