Same caller called two days in a row, with an identical script, first day for the Disable American Veterans, the next day with a completely different veteran's charity. Totally unbelievable.

Called us a bunch of times saying they were the IRS and calling about a claim; however when reverse phone looked up there was not a number stating anything related to IRS. Guy asked if was a call or voicemail left we stated aren't they the same when called back and then were hung up on. We called back and said to stop calling and he asked what number was being called and said he would remove.

received a text message from number 855-223-8520 it said:

Your Bank of America Bank Card has been locked due to failed login attempts. Follow www.cards-bankofamerica.com to reinstate and update your profile!

the link then opens up a window to bank of america website where they ask you for your date of birth, login information and account numbers. called bank directly and they told me they have not sent any text messages and that account was not locked. My fiancé also received this text message, he doesn't even have bank of america. I froze my account and they are sending me new cards so nobody can access my account.

So far this morning (8/26) I have received three phones calls from someone stating "A local police officer has been placed at your home. If you wish to obtain a release order press 1." I have not provided any information but wanted others to be aware.

- Madison, AL, USA

Unknown person called claiming that this was the final notice and the IRS had a warrant for my arrest. I was directed to call (323) 434-2156 immediately. We did not answer the call, this information was left on the voicemail.

We have no intentions of returning the call.

The message didn't identify us by name, just the IRS had a warrant (which I know is false) and this was the final notice.

- Junction City, KS, USA

Received call, put on hold told me I owe money on credit card, but said nothing about who company is. I told them I had no credit cards at all, he said something, a lot of loud noise in background and hung up. I've had fraud on my debit card before, so worried something is up, but nothing additional to report at this time.

I continue to receive phone calls from individuals claiming to be with 'Card Services'. Each time the calls come from a different phone number in a completely different area (Houston TX, Palo Alto CA, Seattle WA, etc...). When I answer an automated record plays, saying that I qualify for 'lower interest rates on my credit card, dial 1 now to speak with an agent'. I dial 1, the person who answers sounds Indian or Middle Eastern and always has poor English. On Monday of this week I received a call from 6507998221 also claiming to be with card services. I told the person that I spoke with that I want them to take me off their call list and that I was going to report them to the ScamPulse.com and FTC if they called me again. The person I spoke with assured me that he had taken me of their list and that I wouldn't be receiving any more calls. I asked for his name several times but his English was so poor I couldn't even understand him.

This morning I received another call from 'Card Services', this time from 2819323936. Once again, I dialed 1 to speak with an agent. The person who answered had even worse English than the last person, I literally couldn't understand anything he said. I stated that I had asked to be taken of their list and that I was going to report them to the ScamPulse.com and FTC, at which point the person on the other end began speaking in a foreign language, before asking me 'not to squeeze him' and hanging up. I am SO sick and tired of getting these fraudulent calls multiple times a week!

Tape recording of a IRS debt, return call to (410)600-5561. I called the number, not immediately, and it just rang multiple times, no pick up from an answering machine or live person.

This past Monday morning, August 15, 2016, someone with a "private number" telephoned my parents, who are 83 and 76 years old and live in zip code 35811, and pretended to be a grandson. Shortly into the casual conversation, there was a staged arrest. Someone calling himself Captain John Rockford was apparently very intimidating, and he insisted my parents go to Best Buy (University Parkway) and purchase $4,000 worth of iTunes gift cards, in $500 increments to keep the grandson out of jail or something to that effect.

My parents went to Best Buy, purchased the cards on their Discover credit card, went home and called "Capt. Rockford" back at 866-536-2913 and read the iTunes card numbers to him. It wasn't until later in the day that they realized the grandson had not been arrested and that they had been scammed.

My wife and I began immediately on Monday afternoon (same day) calling Best Buy, Discover, Apple, and Mediacom to try to stop the transactions at some point in the process. The local Best Buy takes no responsibility for selling an 83-year-old $4,000 in iTunes cards (I'm sure they were glad to get the sales boost for the day), although we have filed a fraud report with their corporate Best Buy office. So far, Discover has refused to stop payment or take any responsibility, although I thought most credit card companies had algorithms to flag unusual purchases of large amounts. (We don't use Discover, but we've had American Express as well as our credit union call us about attempted fraudulent transactions.) Apple tried to be helpful, but after our spending 1.5 hours on the phone with them they said the eight $500 iTunes cards had already been spent and there was nothing else they could do. Mediacom says they have no way of identifying the phone number the initial call originated from.

Sometime today, my parents are supposed to have a law enforcement person from Madison County come to their house to get a police report filed. Apple or Best Buy one also suggested filing a report with the FBI, but we aren't sure about how to do that. Perhaps the police officer can make that determination.

In doing our research following this incident, we found that my parents are not alone in being victims of this scam. Here is a similar report out of a TV station in Charlotte, NC:
