I keep getting calls from this number. I can't fully understand what they are saying because they have a very heavy accent. They are very rude and keep saying they have a warrant out for my arrest but won't tell me why. VERY RUDE!!! They refuse to tell me the name of their company. The guy I spoke with today said his name is Alex Watson.
These people are calling my job and they are calling my cell phone. they can't speak english but want to tell me they are law enforcement and posing to be a cop as well as calling from 911 with an indian speaking. WHO ARE THESE CRAZY PEOPLE? I have called law enforcemnent to look into.
Same thing is happening to me. They gave me the number 864-556-0179 to call back. Do a search on that number and see if the reports on that forum are simliar to what you are dealing with.
They told me I was going to be arrested for a complaint that
Was filed against me. I told him to call my attorney. When I tried
To call the number back it would not let me. Straight scam
THIS IS AN EXTORTION SCAM. Scammers pretend to be law enforcement (police, sheriff, Feds, AG's Office, fake cop agencies with made-up names) and may be using bought/hacked/phished loan application data to extort money or personal info for fictitious crimes.
