Scam Calls: Government Impersonators

Robocalls made by scammers who are posing as a government agency, such as the IRS, are referred to as "government scams". The callers try to extract the receivers’ private information in order to steal their money or identity. The most common agency government scams try to pose as is the IRS. They will usually tell you that you are under investigation for tax fraud or are about to be arrested for not paying your taxes. The caller will ask for your social security number and your banking information, as they are trying to steal from you. No matter how convincing the call may be, it is important not to give this information to them. They may know your full legal name and address, but remember no government agency will ask you for this information over the phone in order for you to not be arrested. Other agencies that robocalls try to impersonate are the Social Security Administration, FBI, and Medicare. It is best to just hang up on these scammers if you do ever get a call from them. However, if you do become worried that you are in trouble with the government, you can always look up the number of the real agency, and call them. They will be able to tell you if it was actually them calling you or not.

Called me with my personal info and told me about fraud charges on my USAA acct. There ARE fraud charges on my USAA acct but not all of the ones they claimed.

This is the correct USAA number. They are spoofing it, but also have access to a LOT of personal information.

If u get a USAA fraud alert, HANG UP. Log into USAA, then call USAA directly to verify.

Gentleman (says his name was Oliver Thomas) sounded very professional and earnest. Told me that there were several attempts at high-dollar transactions in Miami, FL (I haven't been there in years). He knew my name and SSN, and told me the last 4 digits of my card number. He sent me a text with a link to "further verify additional charges." Do NOT take the bait. I told him I needed to call USAA directly to confirm. He hung up. I called the REAL USAA and reported the incident. I had my current card blocked and a new card is on the way. That was close!

Scammer, tried to get me to reset my password and give them the temp password. Definitely not USAA. Caller did not use my rank as USAA does. Also told me that this number is on the back of my debit card and it is not.

Called me twice today. Looks like USAA number but more like a scam I think. Never answered it. Logged in to USAA and no any important notifications.
