Scam Description
I received a call on my cell phone yesterday afternoon. Caller said that they had information on an account I entered through Amazon. They told me$459. I told them I do not have an Amazon account. They had my name and address. That scared me so I kept listening. I listened to them for about an hour. I do not have the phone number that called. It was 800 and the numbers cut off. They got something from Amazon in my name. His name is Aaron Weins. I had a hard time understanding him. I wanted to speak to someone else but he would not let me. He gave me his ID number. EINA11646860-321788071916. I should have hung up. He gave me order number. 40504600286376339. Four orders that were entered. He gave address they were shipping to 5248 Washington Ave. Houston TX 77007. He said the order was for drugs. Opioids. He said I would go to jail if not cleared up. He would get the police to come and get me. I could go to jail for ten years. He asked me how much money I had in the bank. I did not answer. He also tried to get my account number. He told me to use my credit card and Dollar General. I finally hung. The call was very upsetting. I contacted my bank. I did not send any money. I told him I had a debit card. I did not give the numbers.
