Victim Location21044 Total money lost$44,000 Type of a scamPhishing
I received one call almost a month ago now and they said they were with SSA (come to find out when it's too late that SSA don't call), then they transfer you to a DEA agent and they told me that my SSN has been compromised and used in a drug and money laundering scheme and since that is the case, they tell you to withdraw all your money, but not to close your bank account. Then if you don't they continue to tell you they will come and arrest you if you don't do as they say. They make you mail the money. This was to the address I have already given. Which is actually a Walgreens. They request pictures of your package. They keep telling your that you will get your money back in the form of a check and a SSA person will come and visit you. They make you take the rest of your money out and put it on a walmart gift card. That way you have all your money tied up and you can't necessarily pay for your bills. They really scammed and played me. Now I'm almost broke, but when they made a call by using the Maryland State Police number and I called back, that's when I realized what they were doing was all wrong! There are many bad people out there and they don't care about taking your life savings!
