Has anyone received a phone call from customs stating the have seized your package and you will be arrested in 24 hours? Just got this call today and i'm freaking out. The call was from a local number.

 
I just went on reddit and found other people that have received these calls. one person press 1 for more information and the people asked when did you received this call then eventually hung up on them.  They were calling it a scam so hopefully it just a coincidence. Pretty sketchy.  

 
Definitely sounds like some sort of scam/prank.  Did they say anything else?  Like was there some sort of extortion attempt?  Also curious if you actually have a missing order? Also, did you try googling the number to see if you can find anything about it?

Yeah thats the kind of scam i would assume it would be. CBP will def never call.  Either a letter or a knock at the door lol....Stay safe!

 
I get these annoying calls every single day also from the SSA.  Some of the vocabulary & accents are hillarious!

 
Yea I would definitely chalk it up as a scam call.I have never heard of getting a call saying hey we coming to arrest you.Would kinda kill the element of surprise and who the hell would stick around.

 
I know this is a bit late on the thread,but I just got the same call. Also have things going on and some bad blood with a scammer who tried blackmailing me. Wondering if he gave out my info as revenge or its all a coincidence. I have alot going on and thats the last thing I needed. Ima chalk it up to bullshit and fuck it off... editing  this because I read the news article and it's word for word what recorded message said. Scam.

@ShoeLace it's a total scam!!  If you really pick apart those messages everything about them is fake.  Their almost laughable. I've gotten those several times when I've placed SY orders.  Even though my orders were fine I still got those calls.  Interesting huh????  That's one of the reasons I don't go south of the boarder anymore.

Stay well!  Kitty:)

 
@mountaincat9 ya I have nothing sy but do have things due soon and with everything going on it have me a brief panic until I read that article. Like kitty said they aren't going to call about a few things and especially a pre recording. They are sending A love letter or knocking on your door. Fuck this world.

 
@ShoeLace glad your staying cool as a cucumber!  I actually saved one of the messages I got a few years back it was so funny.  The english was so broken & mixed up it was too funny that I couldn't believe they would think anyone would believe it was real. 

 
Na, I don’t think anyone that wanted to arrest you would call and let you know ahead of time that they are going too. Loses the element of surprise and I’m almost certain arrests don’t happen that way

 
@cwcville that video is hilarious!!!!!!!  That's exactly like the calls I get so obviously fake.  I've had both men & women call trying to get me to call back.

 
Total scam. They wouldn’t give you a 24hr warning if they were who they say they are. Doesn’t make sense 

 
Yes scam, I’ve had too. Not to say it’s not getting crazy out there and privacy is obvious gone straight down the tubes. I get the job but come on sometimes. What taxpayer resources are going into this black hope. None of us want anything scandalous but some of it is bs

Oops I should have separated that out, I was speaking to two issues. 1. Yes scam 2. The black “hole” is becoming more prominent and again while I understand the HS reasons. Some of it is a witch hunt and created more problematic by LV worried about fake bags.

  1. D @ drdrizzy13: LSU is trash and has always been trash but a night game in death valley is unlike anything I've experienced. Except the first game back to the superdome reopened after Katrina destroyed it. Everybody was crying and drunk as shit lol. All time favorite in person sports moment ever.
  2. M @ meepmoopmeep: Kiffin is a traitor and he and LSU deserve each other since they’re both complete trash
  3. D @ drdrizzy13: yea he's a joke lol. Can't stand him.
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: You know who rly sucks…lane kiffin 😂 dude is all that’s wrong with college sports or at least a big chunk of it…and he lied about being told he could still coach ole miss in the playoffs
  5. D @ drdrizzy13: Hey at least Ole Miss got in. I can't stand LSU. They really sucked this year.
  6. M @ meepmoopmeep: as an A&M fan I’m content with us missing the SECCG for that reason. Georgia about to fuck Alabama up
  7. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah I agree if bama loses I think they are out. That would be 3 losses. I don't see a 3 loss team getting in this year.
  8. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah that’s why sark was pleading his case about that Texas shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a non conference game against the best team and losing if they hadn’t done that they’d probably be in but oh well way it goes there’s always gonna be a few teams who get robbed or feel they got robbed even with a 12 team playofff…if bama loses to Georgia I’d think they’d be out but who knows
  9. D @ drdrizzy13: Alabama also lost to Florida State pretty bad. Whom Florida beat. I just think if they didn't decide to play ohio state the first game. They would be in with 2 losses instead of Alabama.
  10. M @ meepmoopmeep: @drdrizzy13 Texas lost to Florida of all teams, they weren’t heading for the playoffs anyways imo. At least not this year
  11. D @ drdrizzy13: Texas is offically out of the playoffs they didn't make the top 12. I do wish they were in it. They showed up against Texas AM. But there fatal flaw was scheduling Ohio State for their opening. Which would have been great if they won but they are a 3 loss team now.
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah idk about arch I could see him staying with Sark for another year but if he plays rly well in the playoff who knows that is if they get in
  13. D @ drdrizzy13: Man a lot of Saints fan want Arch but I think he said he is playing another year. I would take him probably. But if Texas AM QB comes out or Ohio State's I think you gotta take one if your picking top 2.
  14. L @ Layne_Cobain: Is the qb class supposed to be stacked or thin for draft in April I follow college ball but I can’t think right now I think there’s def at least a few high potential qb declaring
  15. D @ drdrizzy13: Right now I believe we pick 2nd. ATM.
  16. D @ drdrizzy13: At first I figured he might be able to do something but our position players suck. We are playing a rookie QB. O-line sucks. It needs to be blown up. I hope we tank for the first pick
  17. L @ Layne_Cobain: Hopefully you guys maybe find a solid qb option in the draft you should end up with a very good pick
  18. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah dude Moore def does not seem like the guy for yall need to clean house
  19. D @ drdrizzy13: I should say our receivers suck
  20. D @ drdrizzy13: AK is hurt. Our receivers hurt and our starting QB went to college for fucking 6 years. If that tells you something. Also he never completed a complete season in college due to injury. We need a new GM and FAST. And surprisingly Kellen Moore's play calling has been TERRIBLE.
