I called a number from online thinking it was Entergy and all they seem to care about is if I was paying for a bill. I needed customer service and they hung up on me. Then I called back and someone else answered the phone and said they could work out my problem. It did not seem like it was a Entergy. Then I looked at my Entergy bill and noticed it was a completely different number. Entergy said that the number I had called was not their phone number.

I was called initially by NFCU's legitamite phone number and was told that someone was trying to make payments on my card somewhere in georgia and asked if this was me, I said no and froze my card instantly. They said to verify information about you they needed my safeword, name, addres,s email, and last four of my social. I was skeptical as to why they needed this to report a scam to me so i asked if they could prove they were real. Low and behold they name off all my bank transactions and the names of where they were from in the last month. Which still had me believe them somewhat more so i gave the required info and they said to resolve the matter we need to have the last 10 digits of your card and pin # to be able to resolve the matter. I had already frozen my card so i wasnt worried, until he asked if i had done so and said to complete the process they needed me to unfreeze my card. I did for about 30 seconds until i looked up online that the banks will never ask for your safeword. I lost no money here, but i did lose the last four of my social which i have already made a fraud report. If a legit company's number calls you and it seems suspicious hang up and recall the number as the only way for a spoofed number to work is if they call you first.

Heart broken and I’m truly sick out of my mind and money for worrying. Can’t even sleep now.

I wish someone can help me.

I looked up Etsy customer service in Google Chrome. Dailed this number showing (718) 855-7955) a man answering said Etsy customer support. I told him I had set up an account with them to sell awhile back but had not completed my payment method and that I had some questions with cash app not wanting to connect with them. He said I probably had a setting on it blocking limitation and said he could help but first I would need to download this app Anydesk Remote Desktop. I did. And then he said before we proceed he would need to verify that it was me to contact that person for verification and ask who I might had sent money to from my cash app account. And said my daughter ******* and gave him her number. Someone called her and she verified I was her mom and then talked her into downloading the Anydesk Remote Desktop. She did. Now am still on the phone with my guy and he told me to cash app ******* this amount of four thousand and some odd amount. And I said I don't have that kind of money. And he said that's okay. We are just determining my limitations. I said okay. Then we did another four thousand and some odd amount and I did. He said see your money is still in your bank account. He asked me to key in my debit card and I did. To go to savings account I did but told him I had not used my savings in cash app then to add Kelly Russell as a favorite. I did to see if I could send money I did and it failed. That is when I add some questions about it all. He convinced me that all was okay. And to go to my bank account to see it was all still there. It was. But now I'm assuming he already knew what I had in my bank accounts and told me to transfer 870 into my saving. So I did and no w my bank statement and the cash app transfer is showing that I paid myself $870.00. And my Bitcoin is showing that I cashed out on $870.00. And cash app is not wanting to reimburse me or my Bank because they say I need to get it back from cash app.

Received email stating that money would be deducted from my account automatically tomorrow. Used contact number and spoke to someone with a foreign accent who said that my auto renewal was due. I do not use this service at all. I explained I wished to speak to the individual on the email a "Lynette Griffith" to get the information from her concerning the bill but was told that "he was customer service and I could not speak to her". I told him I was not interested in the service and he asked me to get in front of my computer to take care of it. I did not give him any information and refused his request. He told me if I did not do it that tomorrow the $600 dollars would be withdrawn from my account. I asked to be removed from their calling and email lists in the future.

caller called my work phone and didn't ask for anyone, but started a spill about he was notifying me that I was getting an increase in social security benefits. In order to receive those benefits.... I hung up as soon as I realized it was a scam.

Took control of my computer screen. Said that my computer had been hacked and someone was gathering my personal information. They listed a phone number to call immediately calling themselves Windows Support 833-784-3518. They wanted me to use a 3rd party app on my cell phone to take pictures of the message that was on my computer screen. Then they started asking questions about my banking information.

Caller said that someone had attempted to charge a $1500 apple product to my Amazon account. I checked my Amazon account and my bank account while on the phone with this person and there were no such transactions so I knew it had to be a scam. There was a lot of noise in the background while we were talking. He said he was going to try and deny the transaction. He put me on hold and then came back and said he was unsuccessful, so he was going to transfer me to some governmental agency. I can't remember the name he put out there. I told him to give me the number of the agency, and I would call them myself. He said no, he had to transfer me. I demanded that he give me the number and I would call them because I didn't think it was a legitimate call. He hung up.

He started scamming my mother before Christmas. She has given him at least 600 and he keeps asking for more. She believes she is talking to Alan Jackson. He found her on a Facebook fan club page. He tells her he’s getting a divorce so his money is all frozen. His management team robbed him, his credit is frozen. He can get her backstage passes and a tshirt for a concert in Green Bay. The concert never happened and when she asks him where her tshirt is it’s always an excuse. He tells her he’s sending her some money but wants her to put another 500 on this business PayPal account to open it (because her husband is watching her expenses) then he can put some money in it for her. When she says she will get in trouble for sending it he calls her darling and practically begs for her to send it and he’ll talk to her husband about it and take care of her when she gets a divorce…that was very recent). He knows she’s an invalid and says he can hire someone to take care of her. We’ve tried to tell her the real Alan Jackson is rich and wouldn’t be asking her for money. He even got her to ask her best friend to buy tickets to a concert that was never scheduled but her friend tried to tell her she was being scammed.

The following are the email addresses I know about but there was about 4 months of conversation we don’t know about.

Shayfitz10@gmail (Shannon Fitzgerald)

alanjacksonsweetlovers@gmail

jasonmcalister1999@gmail

Nicole.oswalt1999@gmail

And something he called a PayPal tag of @nicoleoswalt67

My mother lives in DePere, WI and she started chatting with whom she thought, and still thinks, is the real Alan Jackson. I have a zip file she accidentally sent me but then told me I could read that has all this information I put on here. The following words were brought up numerous times:

Gift card 31x, Razor Gold 28x, Routing# 19x, PayPal 35x and the word bank 35x. Anyway, this guy probably isn’t even in America, but I’m sure he probably is doing the same, and destroying families, with others. He knows she’s an invalid on social security too. He’s trying to talk her into getting a separate account so her husband can’t control her money. We’re considering having her declared incompetent. He is destroying our family.

i got a sunbit credit and called 855 679 9921 in error to activate. I should have called 855 678 9921. I was off by one number. They took the credit number and the security code which i thought was odd. I then tried to use the card and it wasnt activated. I then got a text msg saying fraud activity detected and to call an 800. I checked my subit account online and saw there wasnt any charges so i became suspicious and called sunbit. And thats when i realized i called the wrong number

I received a text message to my phone saying that my cash app number was attempting to be changed and that someone was trying to get into my cash app and to call 1 (888) 232-2699 for security. I called the number and the person said they were a cash app customer service rep and that someone had tried to hack my account to take $462. They tricked me into downloading AnyDesk app in order to view my home phone screen and ask for additional banking info that I didn’t give them. My phone started freezing up and they asked me to give them my card number so that they could send the $462 back to me, I hung up.

Someone called wanting personal information about one of our doctors. They were claiming to be the DEA and said they had some misleading information about his number. This person could not give me a website and only offered me a "badge Id" to make me feel better about giving them the information. After my numerous attempts to find out what they wanted or why they had not reached out by mail, I told them this was a scam.

The initial person read a disclaimer you had to answer yes to. Said the line was recorded. Proceeded to be transferred to the account manager who said I had an outstanding balance. I had just called a week before and my balance was zero. Told them to send a bill if I owed anything. Called the number back and it answered Discover. Called the real Discover and talked to a.real person that confirmed a zero balance.
