I received a phone call yesterday and a few times before saying that I had an criminal investigation against my SSN and then before he ended the call, said that I my SSN was under federal investigation. So I called the number back and man did I get him upset. I work for a Sheriff's Department and when I told him that I did not have any outstanding loans other my car loans, he got really upset and started threatening to have me arrested also. He said that I had an unpaid loan with cashadvanceUSA back in October 2010 for $300 and it had been deposited into my account and it was unpaid. I told him, let me guess you want me to send you this money so they don't come and arrest me and he of course said yes. I laughed so hard at him. He said his name was Robert Lee with a very thick foreign accent. When I told him to go ahead and have the police come and get me, he got even more upset. Told me if that is how I wanted it, then he would send them. The really scary part is that he rattled off my banking routing number, account number, where I was working at that time, my address and my SSN. So I am going to call the NY police department to let them know of this and also anyone out there that has been getting similar calls, contact all three of the credit bureaus so they know your SSN has been compromised. His call back number was 315-538-9901.
