A New Telephone Scam….

This one is where they pretend they are from Customs & Border Patrol and that you have a package that needs to be delivered. They need more information such as your address to send the package. They will text message days before telling you they need more information because you have a package that needs to be delivered and it’s being held. I ignored 4 such messages in the past couple of weeks. So I get the call and they say where they are calling from and then transfer me to an agent. He asks me (in a very strong Indian accent) what my name is. I asked him what his name was. He said something smart-mouthed. And then asks me for my name & address. I won’t repeat what I told him before hanging up. I figure they would pretend that there was a drug shipment going to my name & address and that they will threaten to arrest me if I don’t post bond in the form of a money order or gift cards or they will send officers to my home to arrest me. 😂
