Summary: I Almost Fell For This Social Security Scam. Here's What I Wish I Knew by Julia Glum The call came as I was on the 4 train, late to work and deep in thought about the finale of The Bachelor. I didn't recognize the number. It had a 917 New York area code, though, which seemed legit, so I stepped off the subway and called back. The man who picked up said he was a fraud investigator, contacting me because my Social Security number had been compromised.
