First thing the person said when I answered the phone was CAN YOU HEAR ME (and it was very loud) so I tried to turn my volume down and of course said "yes" Then the caller went on to say I won a all expense vacation to Disney for two people. I did not say YES again and hung up the phone as the MAN was talking about the vacation. One of the questions below is "did the victim lose money" well, as of right now, since this just happened I didn't lose any money but I don't know if I will in the future for saying Yes initially. I assume had I stayed on the phone longer it would have asked for my credit card/debit card information but I did not stay on the phone long enough so I have no clue if they were going to ask me for money.

Called earlier today asking if I was the person paying the phone bill - I responded "yes" and they hung up - I am worried they will use this information to authorize payments in my name

Received a call and was asked if I could hear them. A recorded message then started telling me about being pre-selected for a travel program. Am concerned that they recorded me answering the question about being able to hear them.

When I answered the call I heard "Hi this is Josh, can you hear me?" When I quickly realized what was going on I replied "no". When I heard another recorded response I immediately hung up.

I Received a Phone Call at approximately 11:30am on 2/11/17 from an unknown company from an unknown number. The person on the phone introduced their self and asked if I could here them okay. I said yes and they hung up. I was on the other line when the called in and I do not have caller ID call waiting and this is why I don't know the number that the call came from.

This woman called and said she was collecting a debt from a pay day loan company. I had no such debt. She first called on a 855 203-9054 number and left a voicemail and had me call her back on another number 855 204-0155. When I played along with the scam and said I didn't have my bank account information available she told me to call her back with it later. She said I owed $480 to a payday loan company and if I didn't pay they were taking me to court and it would then be $2000. So I did call back and there was no answer. About half an hour after that she called me back on a 314 779-2178 number which was located in Kirkwood, Missouri. The first calls was registered in Florida. I then knew it was for sure a scam.

My wife, Ann Peterson, got a call on February 9, 2017 at 9:45am CT. Here's how the short conversation went...

Caller/Scammer: hello?

Ann: hello

Caller: hello?

Ann: yeah, I'm here

Caller: oh (friendly laughter), I'm sorry...

And then the caller went into her pitch. It was at that point (very early in the call) that Ann hung up because she realized she had said "yeah," and she remembered reading about the BBB alert of there being a new scam where callers are asking "can you hear me." This felt just like that.

Phone ran, did not notice the phone number "0" until after I ended call. They lady said "hello" "hello" and I answered 'yes" cause that's how I answer the phone. After that I hung up immediately cause I remember I heard something on the news about the "yes" phone scam. So If figured I better report it to you.

The cal came through mt cell phone. I noticed on my message screen, this number came up several times. Wanting to investigate, I called the number and a man with an Indian accent told me they had done some servicing on my computer and something did not work on their end and wanted to give me a refund of my money I started questioning him and he said "Don't you remember me?" He told me all I had to do was get on my computer. That's when I hung up. I tried the number again later [ the one I supplied above. ] on and the message said it was out of service.

When I answered "yes" a second later caller hung up. I called back the number several times and got busy signal, then a recorded message stating this was"Customer service now" could be reached on line at

customer service [email protected] which got me know where.
