Ever wonder why a stranger claims there’s an urgent problem with your Social Security number? That red‑flag language is a classic hallmark of a phishing scam. Callers typically use a toll‑free line and pressure you to call back, hoping you’ll hand over personal data. If you get a text or call saying there are “major concerns” about your name or SSN, don’t reply or click any links. Hang up, block the number, and verify the claim directly with the organization using official contact information. Report the incident to the FTC and consider a credit freeze if you suspect identity theft.
This number called and then texted my phone saying there was a problem with my name and ssn, and i should call them back, but the number they gave was diferent
Apparently, I received two messages purportedly from SS, asking me to call them, but upon visiting SS, they informed me that they do not send texts unless there is an ongoing issue that needs to be resolved.
My phone recieved a text message from this number, stating that there were some concerns about my name and ssn, and I should call this number, 844-814-2952, but I dont think I will.
The price of the website is $9.88, so it's unclear why it was posted.
