I received a call from number 608-852-2715 & said he is a IRS officer. He asked me to deposit $3000 to an Canadian account, which i did. I am really a fool. Now when i am calling that number, the person is not answering my phone calls.
Here are the details of the scammer:
Phone number: 608-852-2715
Name: Mark Nelson
Email: [email protected]
Kindly help me is anyone can.
@jack102#34244 OMG, the only way we can help you by you reporting this here is to give you advice. This is just an internet site. You need to report this to your local police and the FBI. Aso the IRS, if that was the scam. I am very confused as to what you were scammed for. You listed 5 different scams in the tags. YOU NEED TO REPORT THIS TO THE AUTHORITIES. I have great doubts you will get your money back but you need to take precautions if you used any REAL INFO with this guy. As former LEO, I am asking you to PLEASE CONTACT THE AUTHORITIES!!!
@jack102#34244 Call the police now because these numbers come and go faster than you can say “IRS”.
Didn't anything going on set off any red flags for you? Just curious...
Edit: they are indeed not answering as of 2:10 pm EST....
@JusticeinTexas#34247 i already did…i told my bank about the incident they are investigating on the same… i don’t know what to do.
@6flagsray#34249 the number is still active but the scammer is not answering my phone call… i tried calling him from my friends Cell phone… he answered the phone phone but as soon as he came to know that it was me, he disconnected the phone call.
He is answering phone calls but not answering calls my phone number.
@jack102#34250 If you were scammed, you need to contact the AUTHORITIES. Not just your bank. Especially if they have your personal info. And now your friends personal cell phone number.
@JusticeinTexas#34253 Ditto what she said!
@6flagsray#34249 The number just goes to what sounds like regular voice mail.
@6flagsray#34255 Why did I just get downvoted for that reporting the number was not answering?
@JusticeinTexas#34253 Yes i already reported to it to local authorities…going to report it to FTC
@jack102#34259 Good. That is just about all you can do at this point.
Its service provider is Verizon Wireless (vaw)
Main city: Madison
Timezone: Central
should contact Verizon asap.
608-852-2715 is a verizon number??? how do you know that?
@jack102#34244 I don’t think it works… :d lol
The number is still working… Today i have called this number for more than 200 times. This was really a bad scam. I lost all my hard earned money.
Do anyone know online place where i can report this phone number.
