Scam Description
Received a call with caller id/name as local police station (number matches with police department) and Michigan Port of Entry. The caller identified as police department investigator, with the reason, someone used my previous address to courier some illegal stuff (drug trafficking), so my name has been identified as suspect. To clear that I have to visit local SSN office and submit G845 form to protect my identity theft. While I was on the call, I received calls from Michigan Port of Entry (caller id) about the same issue, that I’ve received a courier with illegal drug. Also while I was on tne call, In few minutes, I received a one time passcode in my mobile, the caller asked for it, so they would reserve an appointment with SSN office. Now I realized its Scam and so hung the call. In few minutes again received a call with caller id from local police station that the officers are on their way to arrest me. I realized that they have all my identifiable information handy.
