215-597-5657 / 2155975657

they start calling early and do not leave a message! grrr

This is the Social Security Administration. They're probably calling about your benefits or application.

why in the world do they have such an obscure name on caller ID in this age of scams? pisses me off....I'm still not convinced it's legit.

Just had SSD hearing. General Service called, her name was Bell. She asked questions regarding my Workers Comp claim. She said she was Social Security and was using the info in an attempt to reconcile the amount of SSD I was to receive.

Thank you Dan and Mike for identifying the caller as SSA.

They just called me twice and left no message. They hung up both times as soon as vmail came on. They called a work line that is not in my name, bus. number isn't based local and the company is based out of AZ so a PA based SSA wouldn't make sense to be calling. I have never applied for benefits nor have I ever listed the number they called for myself as a contact on anything, anywhere, ever. I highly don't believe that it is the real SSA but I could be wrong.

She told me that she was from SSA and wanted to know my birthday. To my response that "you are not from SSA", she gave me a return number to call her, that is 215-597-7023. After reading the postings here on both numbers, I decided not to call her back.

Received the call from this number 215-597-5657 saying they called from social security.I called that number back, turn out to be a non working number at mid Atlantic SS center in Philadelphia .The record said, If I know the party extension, hang up and call 215-597 then 4 digit number that I know.They suggest to reach SS at 1-800-772-1213 on use online services at www.socialsecurity.govDon't give out any info.

I cannot believe that the real U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) would call from Philadelphia, with the number showing up on Caller Id as "General Services." This is an unlisted number, maybe from one of their contractors. I don't have good luck dealing with SSA's contractors, particularly via strange numbers or the 800 numbers, as they are generally incompetent and are more trouble than they are worth. Lastly, "General Services" is not listed as a business or Government agency in Philadelphia, except for the General Services Administration (GSA, the Federal Government's housekeeper), but GSA would not be making SSA related telephone calls.
