- Bothell, WA, USA

It was a call to my cell phone. The area code was a local area code so I answered it thinking it was someone I knew and they they called me by name "is this ***" and so I said "yes" and then they hung up. It appears to be the "can you hear me" scam; getting you to say "yes". It's too soon to know if this is going to cost me. I called my bank and they said I should be ok because a person can't access your account just by saying "yes". I called my mobile carrier letting them know what happened and they said I should be ok also. Base on the comments made from other websites, I'll need to keep continuously check my charge card accounts. I already have alerts on all my cc accounts so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that nothing bad will become of this.

- Derby, KS, USA

Lady said hello can you hear me? I was aware of this scam so I said no. Please remove my name from your list.

- Omaha, NE, USA

Called my work, was transferred by the receptionist. Caller asked " is this (my name)?" Responded "yes," and caller hung up.

A prerecorded woman attempting to sound real saying you have won a cruise and need to transfer you to another department and she needs you to say yes to the the transfer. The whole message was left in voice mail so clearly not a real person despite the attempt in trying to make the call sound real. The call wa places to my place of business but was not directed at the business.

Inquired about yorkie puppies. "Breeder" could not identify neighboring towns or the county in Maryland where he is supposedly located. He got off the phone to "take another call" when challenged that his business was not legitimate

- Angola, IN, USA

Tricked wife into saying yes, when sain can you hear me.

- Columbus, OH, USA

Someone called me and I believe it to be a recording, similar to the "Can you hear me?" phising scams.

The woman (now I think a recording) said the follow:

Me: "Hello?"

Woman: "Hello?" *long pause*

Me: "Yea?"

Woman: "Sorry about that, I was having problems with my headset. I see that you stayed at one of our resorts recently, and you qualify for 75% off..."

By then I hung up. I sensed it was a scam or telemarketer.

I have not been charged for anything yet, but I will be checking regularly.

- Rigby, ID, USA

It was a recorded message saying that I was being contacted to clear up a legal matter for (the name was garbbled and unclear) That not contacting them would be that I would forfiet my right to contest it. I was given a very long case number and asked to contact them. The end of the message was also garbbled but when I hit 9 to save the message so I could play it back for someone at the ScamPulse.com I was contected to a person. When she said hello, I asked her what she wanted. I heard off the phone, as thought she were speaking to someone else, something about a case number then silence. So I hung up and contacted you at the BBB.

- Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Caller said they were with customer service, asked if I could hear them, i relexively answered yes, they launched into a sweepstakes talk and I hung up. Only them remembered news reports about yes scams, called number back, got a recording about the offer having expired.

- Lakewood, OH, USA

Caller said "can you hear me?" He left a message on our voicemail.

- Marrero, LA, USA

Scammer said that I was picked to receive a grant from the U.S. Treasury for $5000.00. Then I was told that I was picked because I pay my bills, have not committed a crime in the past 6 months. I was asked how I wanted to receive this money: Cash, deposited directly into my bank account, or in a debit card form, Wal-Mart, Walgreens, Western Union. I said, Walmart. They then gave me an ID # and this phone # to call 206-596-0729. I was to spend the money on bills, home improvement, ect. I was not to spend the money on anything illegal. I never called. They knew my name, phone #, and address. I had several missed calls from their number, (510)246-8283 on Tuesday, March 14th and then I finally answered and was instructed accordingly. - I figured if this was real, just send me the check since they had my mailing address.

Said this is Josh can you hear me?

I said yes! then I realized it was a scam

- Norman, OK, USA

Asking questions about a car I never owned. kept asking questions till I said yes. Feel like it is a scam

- Thornton, CO, USA

Answered phone with two "hellos?". Then a voice came on asking, "Can you hear me?" I said "yes", forgetting about the scam being reported on the news. They said I won something and I hung up. This just happened and I will be monitoring all my bank and credit accounts. I want to make a paper trail in case this does become a victimization issue.

- Hillsboro, OR, USA

I received a text message today at 12:51 PM - "Your Loan Has Been Approved For Federal Student Loan Forgiveness. Call a Counselor at 408-324-7373. Reply STOP to opt-out."

Luckily I know that this is a scam but I would worry about anyone actually replying STOP or calling back the number, who knows what happens when you do either of those.

- Rittman, OH, USA

All they asked if i could hear them. I said yes. It was local number. Then the call ended.

A "can you hear me" and "I'm having trouble with my headset" type robocall

Asked if I was home owner and hung up when I said "Yes". Tried calling the number and got a recording saying the number was not a working number or had been disconnected.

- Morrisville, PA, USA

Received phone call, said hello, then they asked if I was here, I replied yes and they said ok good bye.

They ask "Can you hear me now?" and I said "Yes" then they went into a sales pitch and I hung up.
