Complaint

Country: United States
Got a similar call today asking to give the FCN Number or get it done via a representative by paying the
money to avoid deportation. At some point during the call, I found out this is a scam and when I asked her to confirm additional details, the line got disconnected after a pause.Thanks to this forum for posting this info as it helped me confirm the scam.

It started showing up in complaints several months back, and appears to be run by the same types playing the fake "debt collection" shakedowns and fake "government grant" scams.
This is a similar pattern to the "debt collection" and "government grant" scams, which use victim info from sleazy or fake "payday loan" websites.
Sources of victim information appear to be real (or possibly fake) job sites.
Have you recently posted any of your information on job sites, and if so, which ones?
What information did she appear to already have, and did that match what you posted?
