Could have been "Racquel" or maybe "Kate Lyn". But I only snapchatted with her. I suppose people can get phone numbers from Snapchat somehow. If so, she'd be the one I would suspect since she was the highest pressure and gave me a male sounding email address Deleted by Admin to confirm a Zelle payment (that I did not make).

BTW: I will be acquiring a 'burner' phone for further use. Any tips and hints on how to purchase and set one of those up would be appreciated.

Easier to just get a burner app. Runs on your existing phone but bounces your call through their system so it looks like it is coming from a different number that you can "burn" and replace at any time. Just google "best burner app."

I reached out to two providers I found in RubMD about two weeks ago. Both were super responsive but pressed hard for deposits, so I dropped contact with them.

Today I got a call from a Raleigh number that googles as the Raleigh PD but the person identified themself as a US Marshall.

Said they had found a phone that was owned by "Susan Casanova" and she was a missing minor thought to be kidnapped and in use in human trafficking and the last contact on the phone was from my number.

He would not share the phone number I supposedly used to reach her or her alias.

Several times he told me to google the phone number and his name. The phone number does good as Raleigh PD but his name shows up in a number of benign entries not related to any law enforcement.

He went on to ask me if I saw her or knew where she was. I told him I had no recollection of a Susan Casanova.

He told me that their procedure was to refer me to a psychological evaluation and if that checked out they would know I am not involved with her disappearance. That evaluation would cost me $1,000+ and be refundable if I 'passed".

I declined his offer and he said that they would send 'a unit' to my house to arrest me and take me 'downtown'. I asked which downtown, since I don't live in Raleigh, and he stammered and finally said Raleigh and gave me the street address for the main Raleigh PD.

You are being scammed 100%. Why in the world you respond to their calls / texts in the first place? Good lord man.

That's pretty crazy. Didn't realize you could spoof those numbers that easily. I'd say the eval is the biggest indicator this is a scam. I don't even have to wait to find out. PD are not going to run that kind of evaluation on you to gather information. They are going to question you on the phone or in person. It would be good to share which ads you responded to unless you're worried about outing one of them as a scam by accident.

I had some stupid scammer call me from my own number. Stupid is as Stupid does.

Spoofing caller I'd is incredibly simple. Cops don't call to investigate unless they're following up after already having been in contact with you. For the first contact they just show up. They also don't tell you to go spend money to later be reimbursed. This 1000% a scam attempt.

So far I have not seen a Raleigh PD officer or a US Marshall.

Any similar experience with any of you?

I have not had that pleasant experience, but thank you for sharing.

To anyone else reading who doesn't already know, spoofing a caller I'd is extremely easy, all it requires is downloading an app from the app store and paying <$1 per call. I'm sure there are cheaper ways to do it, but my point is that someone's caller I'd means virtually nothing. Stay safe everyone.

[TwistedBrother]

Wow, thanks for sharing. I think and hope it's a scam. Please keep us posted.

I am sure I'm not the only one who ventures south occasionally for fun times. Cedar Creek is fairly popular with some well-known girls, and until now, the "other" side of 95 has never given me much pause, until TWO shootings last weekend, one fatal.

Anyone who might feel the urge to make a round trip this weekend should definitely be aware of increased uncle presence, including ALPR.

Probably a good time to find some UTRs or home-based chicks, else avoid the Ville until things calm down. What a shame.

The CDC is investigating one of the worst meningococcal outbreaks in USA History. Because of the outbreak in Florida, the agency has reported at least 26 cases and 7 deaths with approximately half of the outbreak cases among Hispanic men.

Been thinking of pulling the trigger on this one.

I have never had any luck with a provider that has a phone number with a area code of 984. In fact most responses that I can recall have resulted in excessive spam, or some sort of scam (Like a prepay of sorts).

It's an election year. City leaders have to make it look good LOL.

I wonder what sudden, coincidental, major defect was either intentionally searched for, or otherwise manufactured to get this shithole shut down after the latest incident?

Now if they would just conduct the same random inspections at ever other joint on NBA. Maybe bulldoze the whole damn stretch between Wakemed and Hedingham Blvd while they're at it.
