this exact scam happened to us on 8/9/2019. Not sure how he planned to get us to buy gift cards for him. We live 1500 miles away. Do NOT give bank info or SSN to somebody who calls you.

This phone number is associated with an Impersonator of Mr. Kyle Williamson of the Drug Enforcement Agency. This man first states that he is speaking on behalf of the Social Security Administration, Treasury Department, Homeland Security and the DEA. He will try to befriend you by stating that he is going to help you because your social security number and name was used for renting a car in Texas. The rental car was abandoned and the police found blood residue and $223,000.00 in cash in this car. The police then raided a residence where they found 22 pounds of cocaine and some additional money. He then states that my social security number will be canceled and a new number issued tomorrow and that I will get an appointment time at the Social Security office to obtain the new number. He then rushed me into my car, stayed on the phone the whole time and had me go to Home Depot to purchase (3) $500.00 Game Stop gift cards. He stated that I needed to "protect" my money that is unused on my credit card because my social security number is canceled which will stop me from using my credit card for 7 - 9 years. Therefore, in purchasing the gift cards will allow for the Social Security Agency to issue me a Treasury Check in payment for these three cards. He then told me to do the same with two other credit cards up to the limit of the cards so that I can get reimbursed for all of the 3 credit cards. I visited the Social Security office, spoke with the DEA and visited the local police department. All three agencies told me that this scam is going on daily to the tune of 10 incidents per day. PLEASE BEWARE AND NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM. They are very convincing and very thorough. There were a total of four different individuals involved. One for the Social Security Administration originally making the phone call, then the person you speak to at the return call number who will then forward the call to the alleged Treasury Department where the impersonator Kyle Williamson will speak to you. Then you will get a phone call from your local police department that there is an arrest warrant requested by Kyle Williamson because I ceased speaking to Kyle Williamson. It is a very well planned scam administered by very professional scammers. Except for the call from an alleged policeman, the other parties sounded like foreign nationals because of the heavy accent that they have. BEWARE PLEASE.

He said my ss number had been used

The number that came up on the screen was ?+1 (512) 434-0419?. He told me my ssn was compromised and wanted my name. I said NO and give me your number, I’ll call you back. The 915 number is what he gave me.
