419 SCAM?

Shawnee123 · 09-02-2010, 02:32 PM

I keep getting phone calls to my cell where the caller ID only shows "419". I don't answer, and I don't think there has ever been a voice mail.

I googled it and found this, so I think it's a scam. I keep getting recordings about my Chase account which I don't have so that must belong to the girl who had this number before (I've also gotten some hilarious drunken dials intended for her.)

Has anyone else heard about this 419 bullshit?

Can I block it from even coming through?

I HATE cell phones, btw.
