Extra Info: This was a Debt Forgiveness Scam. To prove this is a robocall-scam, I have provided a link to the voicemail I got for everyone to see. The robocall violates the TCPA because The phone number which called me does not match with the call-back number because I am afraid it might have been spoofed. The call-back number is down, but raising awareness about fraudulent robo-calls will save people from getting scammed. I didnāt call this number back, but the number most likely might be out of service, but I could be wrong, so I suggest calling. Supposedly, this scammer was also impersonating the Biden administration.

How this scam works: Debt relief service scams target their victims with significant credit card debt by falsely promising to work with the victimsā credit/debit card or bank to eliminate or otherwise reduce consumersā debt. These operations often charge people, in heavy debt, a large up-front fee, but fail to help them pay or lower the debt they (the victims who are being targeted by the scammers) owe, whether service is provided or not. Sometimes debt relief scams even advertise their scams using automated robocalls to victims, especially those on the Do-Not-Call List.
