A company called my H's cell phone and said they were the united states legal investigation dept. They told my H he was under investigation and he needed to call them immediately. They also called my H's BF looking for Ricky and said the same thing to BF. We were freaking b/c we didn't know WTF was going on. We have clean records.
So, Ricky did some investigation and it's a scam. The number the scammers call from is based in another county but the number the scammers left on my H's voice mail was from a FL. landline. The people who call have THICK Indian accents and claim to be people named Bob Smith or Robert whatever.
Ricky called them back and a woman told him that he owed money on a loan he took out and that if did not pay it he would be sent to jail. We never took out any loans we never paid back so we know they are lying. The people repeated Ricky's SS# back to him. So they have his name and SS #.
Ricky told the woman that if they have a charge against him, they can send it to him in writing. He also told her he knew it was a scam and that if they called his friends, him, or family again he would
contact the authorities. The woman yelled at him and told him to stick his information up his ass. LOL.
They have since called my H's work and his mother. They repeated Ricky's SS# back to one of Ricky's employees trying to get the employee to verify the SS number, of course she said no.
Can anything be done about this? We have already handled bank and credit card stuff so they can't drain us. It just worries me that they have his name and SS.
