410-965-1234

This call originates from the United States Social Security Administration, and could be from one of its thousands of employees in Baltimore,MD.

Keep getting annoying calls, especially after hours.

The number came up as the IRS and They asked for information about my gross wages for the year and asked if my wife aplied for extra help paying for perscriptions

Peerson or persons uknown keep call us at all hours of the day and night we would like this to stop asap.....it's not funny.

I keep getting calls from this number asking me to fax them W-2's for 2006 and 2007.  Their first mistake was calling on Saturday! LOL!  Seriously?  I suspect caller ID spoofing.

I got a call on my cell phone around 8am on 6/3/09 and they person would not answer when I said hello.  As I repeated "Hello" they finally hung up.

This number is the 'generic' number for the Social Security Administration HQ in Woodlawn, MD.  They use a generic number outside the agency so when you receive a call, you don't know the person's actual extension number.  You have to know the person's full name to get in contact with them.  Then, what happens around 8pm is a 'War Dialer' then calls all SSA numbers (which MIGHT be why someone got a call at this time) and tried to find intruders on the line.  It's a government agency that is calling you.  Take it with stride, even though it's ANNOYING! :-)

this number is to Social Security Disability

they called ONCE and didnt leave a message...my husband has been on SS for over 10yrs and they have never called and now they do?  I called today and of course they are closed for observance of the 4 july...UGH!!!
you know its the GOVT so you never know if you gotta worry about something or not, especialy in this economy...
they ;ist a bunch of numbers when you call the num,ber so have a pem and paper ready...

A female called on Saturday, November 7th, 2009 at 11:37am stating she wanted to speak to my roommate(she provided the name).  I asked who was calling and she said she was calling from the SSA-social security administration office.  I said, what is your phone number so I may have them call you back. Again, she said what. I said provide me with you phone number so I may call you back to be sure your calling from the SSA office on a Saturday. I said, your not calling from the SSA office as they are closed on Saturday's and only open during the week.   She then said, I will call back another time. Hung up.  

I decided to take the phone number (1-410-965-1234)and call it.  I got a recording machine stating that it was the SSA office. Personally, I believe that this phone could very well belong to the SSA office; however, THE PERSON who called has programmed this recording for their own SCAMMING practices and for their own glory, could very well be trying to use this recording to have people believe that their call is real as a way of getting innocent people provide personal information by phone.  NEVER, EVER give any personal information by telephone.  If it was the SSA office calling asking for your SS#, that would be unlikely that it would be coming from their office because this information would already have been on file.  So why would they be asking this information from you.  THINK WISELY!

When in doubt, NEVER give any information out, insist in getting the caller's name, phone number and address of the branch they claim their calling. If its real, they will give you this information where you can call them back directly.

DON'T FALL FOR ANY OF THESE TYPES OF PHONE CALLS. Lastly, reported to your local SSA office and to the police department investigations/fraud's division.

BE WISE, BE CAUTIOUS!

We just got a call from someone who said they were with the Social Security Administration.  My wife and I got on the telephone about the same time.  The woman had a accent and wanted to talk with one of us -- I guess.  When I said "what" twice, she hung up.  We got the number (410-965-1234)from the caller ID.  From the above posts, this may be a scam call.  Be careful if you get a call from this number.  I talked to a SS represenative and was told that SS would never ask for your SS number or parts of it.

I just received a call from this number but they immediately hung up once I answered.  Is this scam still going on?

SSA office in Baltimore Maryland.  Called and left a message confirming they received my fax and informed me that I could now access their online business services. Caller left their name and the following phone number 800-772-6270.

Just received a missed call on my cell phone from this number. After reading the posts on this site, I'm not calling them back!

Received this call. The caller was a white American male who stated he was from SSA and that he was calling to confirm my mailing address and to make sure my checking account was still active. I received a 'Fully Favorable' decision from my disability hearing less than a week ago so I was expecting to hear from them. Wasn't sure if it would be by phone or mail. He confirmed my information by telling me my address which I confirmed, and then asked if my checking account was still open. I've switched banks since applying for disability and called SSA a couple of days later to update my checking account information. He was able to confirm which bank was on file. He did not read out the numbers nor ask me to provide any personal information.

Caller ID shows "US Gov Dept"

Hi, I'm the Fed Man and I try to confirm certain federal government related calls on this site since, like the rest of you, I hate scams and the friendly collectors who initially speak to you as if you grew up together and then turn into total idiots.

Anyway, this is a generic number for the SSA-Disabilty section in Woodlawn MD. They do a lot of verification work and also work on Saturdays. I spoke with an employee there, initials RK, and he stated that the amount of people that they call is staggering, and the amount of people who think they're being scammed is too high. Scary, to live in a day and age when no one is to be trusted.

So take the call, collect your benefits and fix any improper info because it will take forever to get your payments reprocessed.

This was the Fed Man and it's been verified.

This in indeed the generic number for the Social Security Administration. A friend of mine works there and has called me several times where this number shows up on the caller ID. Her personal extension does not show up for security reasons. This is a government agency and NOT SPAM!

i got this phone call saying that was she was from social security federal her name is anna smth

I've had 1 message and a number of calls with no message. The one message was from a woman whose name was common (like Anna Smith below), and when I called the number she gave it was a recordin with her vouice saying leave my SS# and date of birth etc. YA RIGHT LIKE I'M GOING TO DO THAT.
Some of the posts here say I'm a G man etc and that the call is legit. HOW DO WE KNOW THE PERSON POSTING POSITIVE COMMENTS IS LEGIT? Do your own work and find out for yourself. Personally I would not give out any info over phone unless I AM SURE I know what agency I'm dealing with. With technology it's easy to spoof an official name for caller ID. BEWARE!!!!!!!!!

That number keeps calling me repeatedly and I haven't answered it. I just looked it up because it shows up as U.S. Govt Dept and I was wondering why on earth they would be calling me..

I believe that it is a scam because if they needed to verify information from you then they would do it by mail. They would also provide you with some information that they have about you as well. Due to the sensitivity of dealing with people’s personal information I would think that the SSA would have sense enough to take the extra measures to make people comfortable about providing it if needed. I hope the perpetrators get caught.
