The reporting party said that he had been contacted by a subject purported to be from Amazon claiming potentially disputed charges upon his Amazon account. Reporting party told Amazon that he had not ordered any of the items and wished to cancel them. The fraudulent employee transferred him to his “bank” which the reporting party said was what he considered odd. He spoke with a male claiming to be from the Federal Trade Commission who told him that he needed to go to his bank and withdraw all of his money and put it into a government bond. Reporting party knew that this was a scam and hung up on the subject. No identified loss.
