646-287-3668

My phone rang from someone with a 646 area code, identified as New York, NY. The person said that someone had opened up a credit card in my name and had purchased $1800.61 in firearms from an online site with the credit card. The person had my name, my phone number, and my birthday, but the address they had was in Staten Island, not where I live. When I said it wasn't me, they connected me with the fraud department. They guy I spoke with first asked if I was alone and said the only people I was allowed to be with was my husband, daughter, and son. That was when I started to push back. The guy said that his name was Martin Gonzales, his employee id# was cbb48043, his phone number was 646-287-3668, his email address was (this should have given it away!) [email protected] , the address of Citibank's fraud department was 577 Bay Street, Staten Island NY 10304. The fraudulent credit card number was **************, exp 04/2030 and had been issued on 7 April. He then said I had to file a report with the Staten Island police department and he would connect me. When I asked for the phone number of the Staten Island police department in case I got disconnected, he wouldn't give it to me. When he connected me to the police department, I asked the guy who the president of the borough police department was, and he didn't know and started yelling at me when I said I would call him back through the Staten Island police department telephone line. He gave me his name as Brad Ellis at 646-627-5000 (not the Staten Island police department, which has a 718 area code). I hung up, but it was all very scary.
