754-200-2299

I'm supposed to call this number before the sherrif shows up with a warrant that I'm supposed to sign.  Something about social security benefits will be suspended...

Warning! This is a Social Security Administration Scam !

Scammers don't have a clue how the real Social Security Administration works and they are hoping you don't either.
The Social Security Administration:
-Does NOT suspend Social Security Numbers
-Does NOT file law suits
-Does NOT freeze accounts associated with your Social Security Number
-Does NOT issue Arrest Warrants
-Does NOT get involved with any type of Law Enforcement Agency

-DOES administer the Social Security Insurance program (Retirement, Disability)
-DOES assign Social Security Numbers and issue replacement cards
-DOES administer the Supplemental Security Income program
-DOES enroll Medicare applicants with CMS


The current scam is they say your SSN is "attached" with a rental car found in southern Texas, with blood & drugs. Next theres some address they say was raided and discovered several bank accounts used for laundering money under your SSN, so they have to freeze your bank accounts and issue you a new SSN, but you have to secure your Banks accounts by getting some gift cards. ONLY a scammer would request the use of a Gift Card as a means to "secure" your money.

FACT: Anyone who wants you to "go to the store" to buy Gift Cards is a SCAMMER!

• Only a scammer would leave a message telling you "someone" is using your SSN for criminal activities, then try to say your in trouble for something you didn't do!
• Only a scammer would say "legal enforcement actions".
• Only a scammer is going to call you and demand you pay them over the phone to avoid an Arrest Warrant that doesn't really exist. You would first have to go to Court and disobey a Court Order to get an Arrest Warrant issued. If an Arrest Warrant was issued,  a Sheriff would suddenly show up at your door to serve it, they don't warn you they are coming and they don't put it on hold until you decide what to do.
• Your SSN can't be canceled, revoked or suspended because it is a number assigned to your birth name for Identification purposes, only scammers say it can. It IS your Identity as much as your name is.
• New SSN must be applied for with a misuse report on the old one and its FREE.
• Only scammers ask you to pay using Gift Cards. They are not designed to be a method of payment.

Called using a local land line number and left the same robocall voicemail.

I'm being constantly harassed for the last week or so with hang-ups from a succession of numbers in the US and UK, in quick succession. No message is ever left. Today I've received a very threatening computer voice call from an unknown number telling me to call 754-200-2299 immediately to avoid legal action.

Same computer generated threatening message

Received a robocall 5 May 2021 at work.  Caller ID showed the company name and a specific extension.  From researching the corporate directories, I found that the number was not assigned to any employee.  The recording said that the person answering “should set your work aside, leave immediately, and call 754-200-2299.”  If this did not occur, the phoning party would take legal action.  Discovering that a non-working internal line was used for this scam reminded me of the horror-movie quote: “The call is coming from inside the house!”

same thing. received a call about legal action filed from the Social security administration in regards to car rental found in Texas, and something about money laundry. The person spoke with a very heavy accent t and was interrupting all the time

Not a phone call, but this number was listed in a scam email to call about an Amazon order that I supposedly placed.  Definitely a scam.
