8-21-20 Received a text from 410-100-009 claiming to be a notice from SUBTRUST bank. SUBJ; TruistNotice and please call 512-361-1174 for verification.Previously received a text on 8-15-20 from 410-200-505 supposedly from AT & T SUBJ: unsuccessful payment and to call 9312863084.My carrier is AT&T- they should not be allowing these texts to be transmitted to their customers.Blocking all numbers.
Got a call from 410-870-7977 (went to voice mail, since I didn't recognize the number)telling me that my social security benefits will be cancelled until further clearance. AND, I must call them back immediately to keep that from happening.
I just received a call from 410 area code telling me that my social security benefits are being suspended unless I call that number and verify my information. I didn't answer and let it go to voice mail. I then deleted the number and all I remember was the 410 area code.
Text from 410-200-506 (MD but missing the last digit)...regarding AT&T asking me to call 409-683-9531 (TX).Blocking both numbers...
Here’s a new twist, I’m being told I can log on to my bank account via a link that looks like my bank‘a name. It’s an incomplete number with a 410 area code.I wish I could catch a plane and knock on their door...

I just got a recorded call from phone number 410-346-9548. The person had a heavy accent & said to call back this number due to a fraud on my SS benefits. When I called back they wanted my name & SS number. I said I do not give my info over the phone. I was then told that my SS benefits would be blocked. I replied I was going to call the police the person abruptly hung up. I received another call while typing this from 361-200-1566. With a recorded message as before stating I needed to call back that number or my benefits were going to be blocked & I would need to go to the magistrate court. Is this correct? What is going on I am worried about this.
It is a scam.
I received a call from 410-883-1848
