I had the same conversation with the man impersonating a deputy from the local police department with a warrant for my arrest. He told me to overnight a check for over $5,000 to Consumer Debt Services of North America to clear up my account with Citibank. After the check was sent, I was to call Keith Harmon with the routing number and he would call the court house to stop any further actions against me. Unfortunately, he caught me at a time when I was vulnerable due to the fact that my husband left again for Iraq and my son just went into the hospital. I was so afraid of going to court and possibly having my teaching career ruined that I followed his instructions. I contacted the local sheriff's department and they said that there was no warrant for my arrest. I really felt so stupid!! The next day, I stopped payment on the check.
I received a call from an unknown number first and a man said he was a deputy from the sheriffs dept and he had a warrant for my arrest on a judgement for a bad debt. He said I needed to call the attorney of record, Keith Harmon to clear up the matter. He gave me the 213-596-9295 number. I called the number and a woman answered like it was an attorney's office. She transferred me to "Attorney" Harmon. He had me wait while he located my "file". He said that I owed over $9000 on a Citibank credit card and that I could settle the account for around $5000. He told me to write the check to Consumer Debt Services of North America and to mail it to 515 S. Flower St., 36th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90071. I pulled my credit report and didn't have an account even open with Citibank. I filed a report with the police, but they said since I didn't send the money, there is no crime. Please do not send these people any money!!!!

I was contacted by a man saying he was with the police dept and he was going to arrest me also over a judgement filed. I was wanting to take care of these debts and I did not do as I always do and check out this co. It was Harmon and Maier ( Attorneys at Law ) which of course they are not attorneys. I lost $5,000 and have reported them to the LA Distric Atty office,The Police,5 TV Stations, and BBB with not one contact back. They told me Bank of America,NA/ Consumer Debt Services of North America due to Bank of America had bought several old charge offs. Do not give any money to these people. If you find out a way to take these people down please reply.
