I thought it was the ss office too . Is it?

Got a call from this number and a message was left, but was hard to hear clearly due to poor cell phone service.  Came up as follows:
800-772-1213

I just wanted to share that 800-772-1213 is the Social Security Administration telephone number.  I know this because people keep dialing my mother's phone, leaving messages regarding Social Security.  My mother's number contains a different area code but the same last 7 digits.  By the way, she most likely will not be calling you.  LOL

The 800 number is the real ssa phone number. I traced it myself. The scam comes into the picture when its spoofed and the b****ole provides a different call back number wanting you to provide personal info. don't go for it. I also traced the scam number back and provided them with a little gift they'll wish to god they never opened. Haha

How do you know its a spiffed ssa site or phone number?  I traced the 800 number myself clear to gov

How do you know its a spiffed ssa site or phone number?

Go to the Social Security website (SSA.GOV), click on "Contact Us".  You will find the phone number 800-772-1213.  Also, if you call Social Security and there is a long wait time, you will be asked if you want a call-back, if you do, the number calling back to you is 800-772-1213.

Unsolicited

If you know Portfolio Recovery (or any company) is using SSA name and #  on caller I'D go to this website to report it.

My mom had to call the SSA and they said agents were busy and to hang up, or punch 1 for them to call back ... since it was going to be an hour wait. About an hour later the phone rang but we didn't pick up in Time. So I called the 1213 # and it said SSA. So here we go again ... having to wait for them to call back. It seems to be a legit number.

I got a call from 800-772-1213 which is indeed the number for the SSA. The message stated that they were calling for more info on a disability claim and to call 855-249-4340. I thought that was odd and came searching. I'm sick of these people!

Was expecting SS to call but the number showed up and all they said was "What?" Then "you called me WHAT do you want?" They would not say who was calling and I did not give my name

This is a telemarketer posing as Social Security. Do not give them any personal info. They are hoping to get your Soc Sec # (or they already have it) and other vital info. This is NOT the SSA, even though the phone number that shows up on your Caller ID is the real SSA 800 line. It is "spoofed." Do not cooperate. Do not even answer. Any info you give can easily be used to steal your identity.

Norman, please see your other post regarding this. I have given you the information you need to keep you from being a victim of identity theft and how to report this.

I got the call on 5 Sep and a message was left requesting call back at 855-249-4175 EXT 4015051.  Called back and unwittingly left my name and SSN and call back number. Got no return call.  Stepped into that one, big time.

They called me back 10 minutes later, i gave them mi social but never heard 4rm them

Sick of these unknown calls really

I have received 8 calls in the last hour and a half from 800-772-1213. I am home sick today and this is annoying. I did not answer any of the calls, but they did leave a recorded message.  I  called my local SS office and they could not find anything on me or why someone was even calling me. It's just another annoying scam!

I got a letter on 1/28/13 asking me to call this # 1800-254-9489 EXT. 2532 and ask for Wendi. They are requesting additional information to process my claim for benefit. I called the number but no one answered. Is this number associated with any SS office?

Just got a call and the message was in spanish......too freakin' funny No habla Espanol is this house.  So I'm chalking it up to spammers.....

I also got that call. I called the Selenas, CA SS office and talked to a rep there. The 866 number is good. Apparently, that office can be assigned claim applications for people no where near California.

10/11/12  Called from this number. caller ID states "unavailable"
When researched..states SSA from Houston, TX.  I live inMA.  No reason to be called from TX.

Granted, this number is the number for the SSA    BUT that doesn't mean the person calling you with this number on ID is from the SSA.  The SSA is NOT going to call you for any reason IF they need to contact you it WOULD be through the US mail. THESE CALLS ARE GENERATED BY PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOC.   Report them to the real SSA It's illegal for them to spoof any number

It might be SSA's number, but Cornholio Recovery is spoofing again. What a bunch of a--holes This should give everyone who ever dealt with Portfolio Recovery an idea of how dishonest they really are!

If you go to http://socialsecurity.gov you will see this number listed as a true ssa number.
