First National Benefit - Gary Parker - Advantage America
Ripoff, tax money, bank routing info

I received a phone call today from Gary Parker. He said he had money that belonged to me in the amount of $8,500. He verified my address and wanted to know what bank I used so they could do an electronic transfer.

The red lights went off! I asked, "What company are you?" He said, "First National Benefit. This is tax money that is owed to you by the government. I need your bank routing number so we can make a deposit within 2-3 business days. He gave me his badge I.D. #GDS8463 and the address I gave previously.

How can consumers stop these phone calls that are clearly aimed at misleading people and ripping them off of their money and possibly their identity?

I did not give bank account or routing information but I did give the name of my bank.

I called the number that he gave me and a lady answered. I asked her what company this was. She said, "Advantage America." Then I got on the internet to look it up and came up with this consumer complaints.
