I am not sure who I am supposed to be trying to contact but I saw this email address so I figured I would try this first.
I live in the state of Indiana and a couple days ago I received a call from my mother in law, whom I used to live with. She said a company called PNB financial left a message on her answering machine asking to speak with my mother. I was very confused because there is no way for my moms name to be connected to my mother in laws phone number so I gave my mother the message and the number to call back. I thought it was all very strange so I googled the number and found out that this company could be a fraud. I immediatly told my mom but it was too late. She had already called them and they claimed that the reason for their call was I set up a credit card using all of her information and now she had a balance on it and if she didnt set up a payment plan that day the police were going to get involved. There were able to tell my mom all sorts of information, like my social security number, my husbands, and my mother in laws. My mom thought it was all ligit so she gave them her bank information. I was wondering if this company is really a company or not. I NEVER opened a card up under her name and I am positive my husband or his mother didn't either. The thing that scares me the most is that the only connection between all of us is my bank information from Interra Credit Union. My mother is on my account but since I was living with my mother in law, her number was my emergency contact. Is it possible this is where they are getting their information?
Like I said, Im not sure who I am supposed to be contacted in the situation. If you have any answers for me or someone for me to get ahold of I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you
