800-325-6000

Did not receive call but was used as a contact number for:  Fundamental Research Laboratory  244 Highway 3266  Thibodaux, LA 70301

This number called me and a man, who sounded foreign (almost Nigerian), asked me if my account had been compromised. I hung up instantly, fearing this was a telephone scam and I was about to get a hefty amount added to my bill.

Google suggests that this number belongs to the Nigerian scammers favourite method of banking, Western Union.

Avoid at all costs.

A man called and said my account had been used for several fraudulent transactions and that if i didnt call back, I'd be assumed to be the one who authorised the transactions and id be arrested and jailed. Man had an indian accent and said he was calling from western union. i hung up and they called back about 5 times harassing me and threatening to beat me up.

report them if they call you. nasty evil people/

Same as above.

Male caller, indian accent, said he was calling me to inform me of an account breach at Western Union. I said I didn't have an account there. Caller told me to [***] off and said that if i didnt comply, he'd send someone to my house to 'mess me up'.

I am not dealing with threats of violence from phone scammers, so they're getting reported ASAP.

Exact as above.

Man called me from this number about an account at Western Union. Told me to verify my bank details to verify my WU account. Told him to go and kiss my [***] and he came out with so many obscenities and verbal abuse that I was shocked.

They really need to get lives.

called and said my account at western union had been compromised and they need to verift my acc. sorry losers, im not fallin for this.

called and said an account had been created with my name and needed information from me to verify it was me. asked me all sorts inc. name, surname, mothers names, age, D.O.B., address etc. I am sick of these trash calls so I just gave him made up information and when he twigged that I was having him on, I simply hung up.

They waste my time so I am going to waste theirs.

Fortunately I got a message from him, that He will contact me from this number after trying to rent a flat from him and asking me to transfer money through Western Union. :-))
This is his email address:
Zane Theobold" <zane.theobold@hotmail.co.uk

Called my step-mom and said he was the DA in Canada and that she needed to wire money to bail out her grandson.  He got another man on the phone crying and sounding like the grandson.  They got her!  :-(

Reported to FBI, not able to help.  

TELL YOUR SENIOR CITIZEN FRIENDS AND FAMILY!

How do i report them? and what happens when i report them? will they stop harrassing?

dear sir

man calls and said I have a package stuck at the border  and that it was a check for  $2.000.000.000 and wanted me to send him $450 ,western union to get it.(right).long story short, I yelled at him,then he told me to f...... off. owe he said he was from u.p.s.watch out people.

I sent money to WU for my husband who is working in Malaysia. We sent the guide info to pick up money and WU told her there was a problem to get me (sender) to call and get name changed. Before I could call someone took the money and closed the tracking #. When I called they said the monies was paid. Now I'm out 1100.00 and afraid to send anymore. Number referenced on WU is this number. Someone is a thief at WU.

A friend of mine received a latter saying that the payment he made using Western Union didn't go through. He is asked to ether contact the company he made a payment to or 800-325-6000. The letter came from Western Union, I am not aware of Western Union sending out letters like that.

i am currently on holiday overseas and this number keeps coming up on my phone i havent answered it as i dont want to be charged for the call.  i definetly wont be answering the call now after finding out they are scam artists.  thanks for the info

Yeah same number calls me twice a day..never answered it though

Was called by lady with Asian accent, told me to call this number. I didn't answer the call as I didn't recognize the number. She left voice mail to call this number. When I called the number I got the Western Union customer service.

I got a call and sent it to voicemail. mans voice w/ accent - could be Indian, said he was Lance from Western. He knew my name and cell phone number and said my bank account had blocked the charge to Western and I was to call the number on the back of my card and take the hold/block off. the phone number he gave me to call him back is the same number that called me (usually it's different). I had my card cancelled just 2 days ago because of 2 fraudulent charges, so I assumed this was another example of my card having been scammed. Thanks for all the info everyone!!! I see everyone else is commenting that he claims he's from Western Union. I couldn't understand that part of his message, sounded like he kept saying just Western. Thought it was a hotel, as that was what the other attempted bad charges had been from.

I just got a call, for a second time from these scammers, same happened to me, Jerri. My card was compromised and they called to let me know it didn't go through and had some different options to make sure this doesn't happen again. I almost want to answer just to yell at them! Both my accounts have had fraud charges on them this week. They told me in the message to call the number on the back of my card to ask my bank to release the denied charge so it goes through.  Tis the season I guess. Glad we're all able to catch this.
