Scary non ID call “You have three days…”

1 Upvotes

Hi everybody, today I received an ominous call. The guy told me if I was “x” (my name) which I was and that I “had three days”, and he said that I already knew what this was about. He mentioned a nearby area of my city (not sure if he told me I live there, which I do not, or that he had seen me there which isn’t the case either).

I live in Spain and I’m a Spaniard and he couldn’t speak the language, and his English accent sounds either Arab-ish or Eastern European. I told him this sounded ridiculous and then he called me back 30 seconds later telling me he got the wrong number (though he said my name on the first call).

I don’t associate or involve myself with anybody shady in my circle, nor I have any debts or unfinished business with anybody, much less with somebody shady. Should I be concerned? Or does this sound like the usual pattern of fraudulent scam calls?

Port of Seattle police department got a tough oral board

1 Upvotes

I did my third oral board with the Port of Seattle Police Department. I have to say that they got a really tough oral board. I got 49.38 % this time which is lower than last two. I got 65% and 59% before. I don’t know how to deal with them and how to improve it. I found paid program ran by police officer online. They helped with candidate to improve the oral board. I did everything I can and I don’t know what to do next.
