WKYC Video: Disturbing anti-Clinton call gets personal
Here is a transcript of the of the voicemail snippets heard in the the video:
Hello Patricia, my name’s “Bob” with “America United.” … Because you supported Hillary Clinton, um, she’s, I mean she’s a terrible person. Everyone who works for her is, like, awful. … You’re an educator. I know you’re retired and everything. It’s just really strange that, um, someone with your knowledge, your expertise, would ever want to support Hillary. … Your Social Security Number, 28[bleep], has been compromised. … Please take the actions necessary to lock down all your accounts, especially your bank account. Um, I think you have a lot of money in there these guys are going to start coming after shortly. … I’m sorry you’ve gotten through your whole life and this has never happened to you before, but you can thank Hillary Clinton for doing this to you.
Dr. Patricia Ackerman, the woman who received the call, is no pushover. She is not intimidated, saying, “The gall of anyone thinking that such a call would dissuade me is ludicrous.” She further tells Bob, “Go kick rocks.” Go Patricia!
Patricia sounds like an amazing woman. Although retired, she is still active in education, serving as the volunteer executive director of Chalkdust Education Foundation, as co-founder of black lemonade project and founder of IndeedWeCode, a program connecting African American girls to IT and STEM-related opportunities. Go Patricia!
Patricia also has covered here bases. She has checked her accounts, has identity theft protection and has filed a police report.
The piece doesn’t identify who the caller supported, only that he was anti-Clinton. My first, reflexive thought was Trump supporter. But I’m not so sure. The caller sounds young, perhaps too educated to be a Trump supporter? I couldn’t find anything on “America United” and doubt it’s a real organization. What do you guys think?
