Scam caller claimed to be from the US customs and border protection agency claiming that they intercepted a package sent for me from Mexico. They even knew my name and address. When I asked “how do I know this isn’t a scam?” (Knowing full well it’s a scam) he said he could give me his name and badge number. I ***g up immediately after that.

Same as above. Claimed multiple packages and transactions going through El Paso. Gave a fake claim number, even called back s****ing the El Paso CBP number on caller id. Knew old addresses etc. Pretty convincing.

Got a call from them and the lady said I have a package arriving from Mexico. I told her I don’t expect and have no relatives or acquaintances in Mexico and the call disconnected

Someone from this number impersonated someone from the Customs and Border Protection agency. He said a package had been stopped at the US/Mexico border with traces of drugs on it and $45K in cash. He said I was the target of the investigation. I pushed back on everything he said but it was scary for sure. The employee at CBP was real, too. I called and emailed him. I reported it to local police too.

Apparently that is not even a real number.It would appear that PAC Bell does not own the number. While I have not called it, I understand that the bogus number has not been in use for a long time. It would be wise to not answer it. If you do, be careful. Someone could be harvesting info from you to be used to your everlasting regret. For example, they have your number. If they combine that with easily available information such as your e-mail address, they could sneak a charge onto your local phone bill and before you notice it, run up charge that you cannot get back from your provider. (It happened to me, but probably not from the 530 number. However, who knows how people s**** the caller id!)

If you want to find the number, many websites offer to sell a report with the info. So... my theory is that they are the companies selling the reports, and are creating a market for their own product by making the calls in the first place! If so, it will catch up to them, but not soon enough for me!!! Incidentially, I got a "hello" out of the guy. Then I asked what time it was in his time zone. He said "10 o'clock." I asked why he was calling at 10 at night, and he ***g up. But in the background, I could hear lots of faint voices and phone activity -- like a low class call center. Hope that helps.

This has been happening to my wife and I for a long time. Only once did someone actually speak and ask for the lady of the house. I have initiated a call trace with my phone company and law enforcement, so hopefully we'll get some results and this caller will stop calling my house six to seven times a night.

This number has called my house 4 times today. When picking up the phone, there is someone there, but when I say, "hello", they **** up! This is very annoying. On the internet after doing a search of the number, I have found I am not the only one who is getting these calls.

This number keeps calling my house and no one is on the line. They didn't s**** calling until almost 10pm. I have 3 small children and a husband who gets up for work at 3am. It's more than a little irritating to get 3-4 calls this late at night.

This number has also been calling our house for over a week now. Usually one or two times per night and then they **** up. I saw that one person suggested getting in touch with your service provider and reporting the abuse. I intend on doing this tomorrow.
