Scamming - Fraud
The telephone number 346-299-1571 and others from area code 346, which is from Houston, Texas is being used by social security scammers. Therefore, people who receive phone calls of any kind asking for Social Security numbers should be wary of these types of scams and hang up immediately. Consumers are getting alarming phone calls from someone who claims to be from law enforcement or Social Security and then scares you into thinking that your Social Security number has been connected to running drugs and money laundering across the border.

My friend 82 years old, just got a call from (787) area code stating that Texas Social Security had a Fraud Case against him and asked him to verify his Social Security Number (Which I interrupted him), and I took phone and they told me that unless he gave his Full SSN, that he would lose his Property and Assets! I asked for Identification that I could verify with SS Administration, didn’t get it and the last thing I heard before hanging up was that they were going to take action! Oriental or Mexican Dialogue on the phone . It’s as shame to try to Scam our Citizens!
