A police officer called me and said give him a call back, I called him he said my name has came up in a credit card situation if I can come in ASAP then we couldn't talk he wouldn't say much on the phone

[Ghostboy32]

What's going on I'm scares

[Wondergirl]

How old are you?

How do you know he is really a police officer?

This smells like a scam.

[Ghostboy32]

I'm 20 but I know it's police for sure I called back an we talked and he wants me too come in an talk about a credit card that has been used an he said I was on camera at a store ? But If they knew it was me wouldn't they be coming too get me instead if calling me?

[Wondergirl]

How do you know for sure he is police? (This is important.)

No, police would not come after you for a credit card problem.

Did you misuse a card at a store?

[Wondergirl]

Credit cards now have a built-in check feature, so the cashier would know as soon as he swiped the card or tried to use it in his register that your card had a problem. If that had been the case, you could use a different card or ask to speak to the manager.

[Wondergirl]

Did you have problems with a card or use one that wasn't yours?

[odinn7]

Seems to me like he was using a card that wasn't his but he doesn't want to come out and say it.

No they don't come after you first if this is still an investigation.

My question is how they have your phone number, seldom do police call you and ask you to come in, unless you have a record, are already known to the police.

But you may refuse to go in, that is often my option, since I would never answer any way.
If I did go in or was forced to go in, I would not answer any questions, not make any statements, without talking with an attorney and having him present at questioning
