they call saying i owe them money the guy's name is james watson, didn't say what company he worked for just i need to call him back and gave me this number, they call all the time under blocked id and private.
I have received numerous calls from this telephone number. There are several people calling - Max Anderson, Jeff Morgan, James Watson and George Miller who says he is an attorney. The first call I received from them said they were calling from Superior Court of California and that they were representing a company suing me for three criminal activities. When I asked for information, they became very nasty and would not tell me the name of the creditor or how much I owed. In one of four additional calls that I talked to them on (although they called more than 8 times at home and 1 time at work) - they gave me a fake address in Irvine, CA (1365 Handy Papuchi Dr.), they told me they were representing FLUL on a payday loan (which I never took) they said they were filing a court case next week but wanted information from me (which I didnt give them), when I asked to speak with a supervisor, they hung up. They also told me that they would call my friends and relatives and send paperwork to my employer on Monday and that my company would fire me. They asked for my lawyer's name and won't give me any additional information. The company answered the phone as Financial Accountability Association and all the people you speak with have extremely heavy Indian accents.
I received the same type of call. In order to end these calls and stop these people I encourage to go to California Attorney Generals site and file a complaint and also California Better Business Bureau you can file a complaint against the phone number. The more we compalin the more it will encourage officials to end this harassment and threats that are illegal practices.
I filed complaint with California Attorney General after below call.
I received a call from this telephone number (213) 784-5745 on Friday 6/5/09 at 5:30pm New York time. The person who called me claimed to be an attorney named James Watson . He claimed to be calling from Federal legislation of unsecured loans accountablity association. They claimed to be representing a company suing me for three criminal activities- Count 1 Violation of federal loans, Count 2 Fraud, Count 3 Theft by deception. They claimed to be representing a company by the name of Quick Cash who owns 382 loan companies. When I asked for information, they became very nasty and stated that I needed to be in court in California on Tuesday I indicated that I lived in New York State and he indicated that case would be uploaded to New York State on Tuesday and the persons that I provided as refernces as well. They also stated that once case was uploaded to New York State I would be arrested. The told me that my bank account would be frozen and that I would have a total amount due to them of $5942.00 and that would not include my bail or legal fees. They gave me a fake address in Irvine, CA (1365 Handy Papuchi Dr.). they told me they were representing on a payday loan they said they were filing a court case next week Tuesday. They also told me that they would send paperwork to my employer on Tuesday and that my company would fire me. They asked for my lawyer's name and I tried to give them the name of the New York State Attorney General mediator who is assisting me but they told me to wait and listen to what he had to say then I could ask questions. It sounded like he was reading from a script because when I asked questions he would start from the begining. The representative James Watson - attorney has an extremely heavy Indian accent.
Please help I am very scared and confused. I am a single parent and my youngest child is disabled.
I just got off the phone with these people from (213) 784-5745. He was exactly what all of you have described here. I appreciate all of you more than you can ever imagine. I am a single mom who recently lost her job at the end of March of this year, trying to get by on unemployment.
Where do I specifically go on the California Attorney General's website in order to file a complaint? How do I file with BBB of California?
These people need to be stopped. Its amazing all of the info he knew. I almost believed him. Something told me to look them up and I found this website.
