What are "Government Scams"?

Robocalls that pose to be calls from a legitimate government agency are referred to as "government scams". There are many different forms of these government scams, but the most common is an IRS scam call. This is where a scammer calls you and tells you that you haven’t paid your taxes and there is a warrant out for your arrest. During this call, they will ask you for your social security number, bank account information, home address, and much more. These calls can be very convincing, as they already know your name and possibly know where you work, but they should not be trusted. There are other government scams such as Social Security Administration calls, medicare calls, and police department calls. All of these scam calls will consist of the caller asking for your information and threaten that you will face consequences if you do not give them what they want. These types of calls are illegal, and they should be reported to the police immediately. The best way to avoid becoming a victim to these callers is by hanging up and calling the agency the caller claimed to be apart of. Simply end the call, and call the number of the real agency to see if they truly are needing your information.

This company is nothing but rude. They've harassed me, my mother and my little sister and upon calling them back to ask them politely to remove me, they rudely hung up sparking me to call back. Once I finally had someone to talk about removing my number, she rudely repeated that I was calling back for no reason and while I was in mid sentence, she so rudely hung up. They've been harassing my mother and sister for months!

They called asking for me and wouldn't say who they were nor where they were calling from so they ended up getting off of the call. Pack of assholes.

This 1-800-560-6169 number keeps calling me. I didn't answer the first time, because I figured it was a telemarketer. They left a voicemail stating they are looking for a Chrissy/Christy Myers (mssg not very clear). Then, they say to call 1-800-560-7994 if you are NOT that person. To state who the mssg was for, the # that was called, the date and time it was called, that they would remove your number from their records. They have called 4-5 times in the last 5-6 days. I've called 3-4 times to let them know that I'm NOT Chrissy/Christy Myers and that I've never heard of them. Yet they keep calling and keep calling. This is so annoying! I have no clue who Chrissy/Christy Myers is. It would be awesome if these people would actually do what they claim they will do when you call the 800-560-7994 # and actually update their records! Ugg!

They call, want to verify by using personal information, You CALLED me...don't you know who you're calling? So rude! Started out pronouncing my name as "Bathroom" IDIOT! Then proceeds to tell me all my address, birthday, etc. And says, is this you about a dozen times I said yes. I asked what the call was regarding and he calls me sir instead of miss...he tells me I need to give HIM more of my personal information before he tells me why he's calling. WTF??? ARe you kidding me??????? I'M WORKING AND YOU'RE BOTHERING ME WITH THIS CRAP?? Ugh, I am livid. This call really set me off. They need more people to report how awful their reps are mishandling information and conversations. Try to hire someone intelligent and not these immigrants for crying outloud!

They called me and I didn't answer the phone because I didn't recognize the number. I never answer 800 numbers unless i know who it is. They left a voice mail and they still didn't tell me much and I'm not calling them back either.

Received a call from this number. Caller immediately asked if I was "name" and I in turn asked who was calling. She talked fast, jumbled and did not enunciate her words. I asked three times what the name of the company was and never did understand her clearly. She then said very rudely and defensively that she had told me three times already and that she wasn't going to talk to me anymore because I refused to identify myself. If a company cannot hire competent people with phone etiquette and people skills, they don't need to exist.

This is an agency used by New Hanover Regional Medical Center (Wilmington, NC hospital). They were pleasant enough with me and are working with me on my payment, as I am willing to worth with them to pay my ER visit bill. I can't afford the full balance all at once and the hospital won't deal with you if you can't pay in full, so they refer your account out to this group for manageable monthly payment options.
