Anyone here from Puyallup WA? I got a strange call.

Man I don't know how to do this.

Wrong side of the mountains for me, and it's been a million years since I've drunk dialed........

I've seen several folks on here listing Puyallup as their whereabouts, though.

He sounded pretty eager to talk. He said my full name in the VM. I Called once and sent several texts with no reply. Kinda weird.

Was it the IRS?

Or maybe Microsoft saying you have a virus on your computer....

I've had more than a few dotheads calling me with that situation.

I like to string them along and then hit them HARD with a mama joke they don't like that too much...

No....it was a member here. I'll post the VM if someone can tell me how.

Exact words were " Hey , is this Jeff Huber that posts on Vital?.......if it is , yer gonna want to call me back "

But that doesn't really explain the tone in the voice. I can't tell if he is someone I knew , if he was pissed...or drunk.

Hoping maybe he see's this and chimes in. Or call me again.

I’m gonna go with drunk and pissed. Better get your dukes up there buddy.

How the f did he get your number lol

Someone looking to sell you a sweet, low hour 125? Call them back quick!!!!

test

Two scams that jump to mind, although I don’t know why they’d reference Vital (other than to pull you in).

One is the bail scam. Pretend to know and/or be related to you and ask for “bail money” as you’re the “only one they know to help them.”

The other is where they pretend to have a weak/quiet phone connection and repeatedly ask if you can hear them. When you say “yes” over and over, they record it. They sign you up for all sorts of stuff ($$$) and when you try to dispute it, they have you agreeing to purchase (the “yes” recordings).

Would be kind of weird in this case though unless they were spoofing with a number belonging to a random gal named holly.

All I see is “test”.

Upload it to YouTube.

Weird day here , and getting weirder.

Not sure how he got my number , but it was ( or at least sounded like ) a " Call me or else "

Then 30 minutes ago I get a few strange calls from 1-402-935-7733. I looked it up and seems to be something connected to Paypal , or a scamming thing for paypal. Go to my bank , and sure as shit.....3 withdrawals of $50.00 gift cards , and I haven't used paypal in two years.

Called my bank , got everything squared away. Bank card that was attached to paypal is now deleted , and have a new one coming. Two of the transactions showed up as a gift to a printing shop in Nebraska. The other one is Oregon based and showed up as " H&M HENNES MAURIT 855-4667467 OR ".

Have no idea if any of this is connected , maybe just a coincidence.

The great NW haha

Guys....do any of you know how to upload a VM from a phone? I'd even send it to someone so they could upload for me , if anyone is interested?

If you have an iPhone, go to the voicemail and hit the “share” button. Idk if other phone’s have something similar... you could use another phone to take a recording of you playing it on speaker phone, then upload it to YouTube.

I do have a share option on my android. I have the file stored as well....I just don't know how to upload it.

Did he mention anything about a mortgage, snowmobiles or PED’s?

Haha......no he didn't. No mention of how EFI works either or any info towards how to pass drug screening through WADA.

Cam....text me btw. I lost your number with my old phone.

Or perhaps... Grab another phone... Call vm, put on speaker setting, then video record with second phone... Post vid of phone on speaker setting to YouTube... Not clean but should work well enough

I only have the one phone though. I can send it to someone who has 2 though.

I called the Oregon co. H&M and they are a clothing company. Spoke to the manager and he wanted my account details.....I told him I didn't have an account.

I'll just let my bank figure this out.

They got your info , and when you called them back they cloned your phone and hacked your PP acct.

Go smash that phone and get a new one. and never ever call anyone back that doesn't give a detailed reason and identify themselves

I would panic bro! They probably got your SSN, mothers maiden name, address, bank statements, keys to your car, and pornhub password at this point through your phone. Panic, panic outstandably!!!

That's the thing....I don't have paypal set up on my phone.

For you tech guys......I could use some advice on something ( mainly out of curiosity ). So check this out.....My Paypal account hasn't had any action's listed in my account since May 2017. So.....how would my bank get fooled thinking it was me , using a paypal account , when my paypal account has had no activity for 1 year? I thought they hacked my Paypal account , but that doesn't seem to be the case. And if they hacked my business debit card account , why would they make it look like it was through paypal?

The H&M HENNES MAURIT place is a legit business as well. But for some reason , they were able to take my info , send an invoice to my bank , making it look like I purchased something from H&M? I think I need to call them back.

I can deal with anything , unless they truly hacked my pornhub account. If that happens , they'll ruin me.

Are you the first victim of this "Dream Bike" giveaway thing being hacked?

No. I didn't do that either. Just glad I caught it today , as it just started happening today. My bank blocked everything coming from PayPal. Weird though....because it isn't my PayPal. Mine doesn't have any activities. Smart crooks I guess.
