Peter Smith’s favorite color is yellow.

Both are Bandwidth.com lines carried via Skype, baiting with virtual machine.

@ElmerFudde2020 Did you ever tell us what is your favorite color??

Sir, this is a recorded line, we are not authorized to answer such questions. If you need any help with your device you can tell me. May I know what is the concern of your call?

18024558205 : Scammer seems clueless about his own scam. I had to read the whole e-mail to him.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM VIRTUAL MACHINE BAIT:

  • The scammer will ask for your name and ZIP code before claiming the purchase was an “emergency” from New York, New Jersey, Ohio and Texas, with multiple bank accounts being registered under your name.
  • My call was then transferred to “my bank’s fraud department” and I was then asked to provide my birthday and THE LAST 4 DIGITS OF MY SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER, claiming that there was 3 additional purchases on my account: $1,450 in Texas, $990 in Ohio and $1,010 in New York.
  • The femchode disconnected as my case was being transferred to the “FTC Department,” and I never received a call back.

I wonder why they have not wanted to connect to a ‘secure server’ all week. Weird.

This is basically the new SSA scam.

On a call with PayPal :smiley:

ROFLMAO :rofl: :rofl:

I just posted another email with the same template but a different number. waiting on approval now.
