I work with a financial institution and received a call from this number through out 800 number. When I answered, the caller identified herself as Penny with NHI. When asked to identify what NHI stood for, she got offensive and said "It's just NHI!" I agreed to complete her request to search our registry for several SSNs and after I ran 7 through the system, I found only one match with an existing account. When I told Penny that we did have a valid account under one of the socials, she then asked "What is the routing number for automated processing?"

Why would she want this information? Duh! It's a scam and I specialize with fraud. Do not provide information to any caller calling from the number: 415-294-8201.

I informed the third party that, if she needed that information, she could get it from the client directly and I would be unable to assist her. After she hung up, I quickly called the number back and got a fast paced busy signal like the number is out of service. Please be careful when getting calls from people who will not validate themselves completely!
