The caller, often identified as "Margaret Wells" from the "Mediation Department", is likely a scammer attempting to extort money or obtain sensitive information from recipients. The messages are typically sent via text and are often personalized, addressing the recipient by name. The scammer's tactics have also involved contacting distant relatives and multiple phone numbers associated with the recipient's account. When called back, the scammer may become aggressive and accusatory, as reported by one user. The true purpose of the calls and messages is unclear, but the behavior and reports from multiple users suggest a scam.
