THE NEWEST SOCIAL SECURITY SCAM - Another call today from the so-called Social Security office. (First off, you must realize that I TOTALLY enjoy playing with these stupid people.)
So now, if you have the traditional red-white-blue card, it is outdated, and you need to upgrade to the new GOLD card. After determining I had that OLD card, I was asked to get my card and read the information on it and verify the spelling of my name. I told them you have my name and they spelled something I couldn't understand. I then proceeded to tell them that I was not going to read the information on my card and that it would remain safely in my purse. I also stated that if I wanted a new card, I could log into my SS account and do it myself. They proceeded to explain to me that this was the Federal Government calling. I proceeded to explain that they should be ashamed of themselves for trying to scam and steal information from people. They assured me that I was wrong and why I thought this. I said "BECAUSE THE F***ING SS OFFICE DOESN'T CALL PEOPLE YOU IDIOT! If you're going to scam this country at least know the procedures of the business you're imitating. They said,' Sorry you feel this way" and hung up.
PEOPLE BE CAREFUL! NEVER call back the number in an email, letter, or phone message. Login to your bank and call the number there. Login to your SS account or look up the number in the phone book. Do a little research and NEVER EVER (unless you enjoy messin with em) give information to non-English speaking representatives. Always ask for an ON SHORE AGENT or someone who speaks better English. See what you get!
