Claimed to be SSI. CallED from private CELL PHONE number. Incorrectly used my middle name. SSI WOULD NOT make this mistake. Claimed they didn't understand my paperwork and very dramatically said “oh well i’ll just file it the way you indicated unless you call me back”. I have filed no additional paper work… DON’t fall for it!

Received a call this morning saying that my form was incomplete. I questioned who they were, he said there was no way to confirm if the call was legitimate. I could call the social security office but it would take two hours to track down "Dan"; the only name he was willing to give. I said I would not give my info and he quickly got off. I call the ss office and the****ured me there were no incomplete forms. The number was unfamiliar to them. They always give first and last names, identifiable number, and other specific info to****ure that it is indeed from their office. DO NOT GIVE Info!
