What is a Government Scam Call?

Robocalls that consist of a caller trying to pose as any type of government agency is referred to as a "government scam" call. During these calls, a person will try to convince you that they are an employee of a government agency and that you owe them money or are wanted for arrest. They make these calls in hopes that their victims will wire them money out of the fear of being arrested. You should know, that no government agency will call you and ask you to wire them money over the phone. The most common form of a government scam is the caller pretending to be an IRS employee, and they will tell you that you must send them money to their bank account in order to not be arrested. Other forms of these calls are people pretending to be a part of the Social Security Administration, the FBI, a local police department, or Medicare. These calls can be very convincing as they will know your name, address, and social security number, but you should not trust them. If you are unsure if you are speaking to a government agency or not, you can call the real agency to confirm that it was not them calling you.

Received a voicemail without my phone ringing with "This is an important message from AT&T to discuss your wireless service. Please return our call at 1800-947-5096 but when that number is searched, no specific results show that it is directly linked to AT&T

Caller: Possibly AT&T?

his is a scam call. I received a call from this number yesterday saying they were at&t needing to speak to me about my phone account and they wanted me to give them my password to access my account to even tell me what it was about. I refused because no company ever asks for you to give your password over the phone. I then called at&t on the number built into my phone and reported it and at&t confirmed it as being a scam.

It showed up as a missed call today, but had a list of five days that this number has called my phone and canceled the call. I Googled this number, saw it had shady reviews, and added it to my reject list.
