Some scammer called me over the weekend, offering me an IRS grant for $12,000, plus $500 in grocery coupons, and wanted my routing No. and Acct. No.
Just to see what happened, I stalled for a while, and gave them a phony one. Within about a min., the guy said that No. was no good. So I gave him another phony No.
He said hold on, you'll need to repeat this to a "checker" and some one else came on the line.
He said the No. was no good, so I gave him another phony one.
I stalled and stalled, just to waste their time.
Finally the called said if I was going to keep giving them phony numbers, I would be in trouble and wouldn't get the money. He hung up.
Minutes later, he called back and left a message on my machine that "Monday an FBI agent wold be visiting me, and fining me $500 for wasting their time."
As of 2:30 Mon., no FBI guy here.
