Arrest Warrant Scam Calls: Beware

I have been getting a lot of arrest warrant and social security scam calls from telephone number (877)291-1446. Social security scams are especially dangerous to seniors and people on disability. Many of these folks are entirely dependent on their SSA income, so it causes great panic to hear they won't get their check as expected. This panic, unfortunately, leads to making payments or providing information to scammers. The SSA doesn't call people to request money any call you receive from the SSA requesting money or personal information is a scam. The SSA, like most US government agencies, prefers to communicate by written mail.
