@drwat#151160 Gee whiz, my friend. Do you find they are getting dumber AND more foul mouthed lately? THese guys are checking phone numbers.
@JusticeinTexas#151162 Not so much foul mouthed, but they sure can’t explain why it is IMPOSSIBLE to look up my information by name… they insist on getting the number which was called. Of course, if all you have is a piece of paper that your secretary gave you as you were out the door from work, that just says “Social Security Administration - Impending Activity - 956-904-5041”, how the hell are you supposed to know what line the call was received on. No joy.
@JusticeinTexas#151162 Yes but because of greed, if you stick to the number you give, they may buy it.
@Otis#151207 Dang, managed to get through, and it was a double whammy… first, the guy (Mr. Derick Taylor) wanted the number I received the call on. I did the ‘secretary’ bit, and told him that I had no idea what number she had received it on - and I couldn’t ask as it was after work now and she had gone home. I got him good and confused and then proclaimed (referring to the note): “it said to call 956-904-5041”. Apparently he missed the fact that was the number that I called him on, not what they called me on. I could hear him punching keys on the computer, and then he accepted the number as being valid and continued on with the script.
So then we proceeded on to step two - my birthday and SSN. Gave him the DOB and last 4 and he said he needed the full SSN... I asked why and he said there were like 19 other people that have the same last 4 digits (I guess if you ignore the name attached). I ran him around in circles a bit so he got way confused, and then he asked again for my DOB and social. Told him I had already given him that info, proceed to give my DOB and last 4 digits of SSN and he ran with it. Not the sharpest pencil in the box, that's for sure.
Continued through the script... car found in Texas, house raided, 8 to 9 pounds of cocaine found, etc... When it came time, I told him I had two accounts in 1 bank. When he asked how much were in each, I told him that I really didn't trust banks so I don't keep much in them.. maybe $100 in checking and $500 in savings. Then he asked how much cash I had on hand, so I told him I had a 'boatload' of cash in my wall safe, and more stashed around town in bus terminal lockers. I think that really threw him... as he didn't even bother the rest of the asset verification stuff - didn't even want to know the name of the bank, anything about my house, if I had a car, none of that stuff - just went straight to passing me off to the senior DEA agent. Put me on hold, and then after about 5 minutes, the line dropped. Not sure what happened, but I'm going to wait a few and then call back to see why hey hung up.
