Don't let them worry you. They're just scammers. "Scammer" is our polite way of saying that they're low-life, bottom feeding, lying thieves. Probably Indian. We deal with them all the time. They're just an annoyance. They're a lot like Jock-itch. Hard to get rid of, bothersome but completely a waste of time being concerned about. Keep an eye on your credit & your accounts though. The little deviants have been known to be sneaky.
They feel safe overseas as they sit in their foul call centers. Slowly but surely they're learning that they're not as safe as they once thought.
Be Safe. Be Aware.

I got 5 calls in 3 min telling me that I have been approved for a loan and to call them back if I want it!! They have been calling me for 2 weeks. Obviously if I wanted it I would call! Just IGNORE THEM!!
They called my work, saying they were from Fast Cash regarding my loan request. Never made a loan request. Have been inundated the last two days with calls from multiple numbers. I have blocked them but then more come up all with the same sort of message. Never applied with any of them. The must stop.
Just got a call from these idiots saying they are from the Federal Crime Investigation Department. These guys have thought of it all haven't they? What happened to the good ol days?
This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.
