This caller left message. man identified himself as "Sam". Heavy Indian accent, broken English, the name of the company he was from was garbled. He said my "name" had been prequalifed for a loan. Abruptly instructed me to call another number, which I think was 646-367-0661, but he was very hard to understand.
They called me today at work, threatening to have me arrested. I asked for written proof of debt, they implied they didn't have to. Asked for a physical address, was told it was confidential. Told me they were out of New York City. Claimed the loan was from 2009, never got one. Did have money deposited into my account from a payday loan company without my consent, had that account closed and the money returned ( account comprised was the banks wording). Kept these people on the phone for about 15 minutes I hope that hurts their projected profit line. Overseas calls are expensive. After the 4th or 5th time of being threatened to be arrested at work I told them to "bring it on please arrest me, I haven't received a loan from Advance America which is the company they said I had received one from. After they hung up on me, less than 5 minutes another caller called my cell and informed my I was eligible for a 6k loan. When asked by whom he told me ez American loans, I informed him I never applied, and he tried to get me to go to his website. Which I'm sure is full of nasty viruses and/or bugs.These people are persistent and constantly are changing their number, but not their method of operation. People please don't be afraid to ask for written proof, required by law, and when in doubt try "googling" the phone number. Run a free credit report. Be informed. That's the most important thing
I got a second call from this guy telling me there was a problem with my server and wanted computer information. I told him I didn't need any help with my computer and hung up on him. The first time I received a call from him it came up as a saved number to a contact in my phone. The contact was then wiped out of my phone. This needs to be investigated and the person charged with scamming. I feel sorry for any innocent people who may fall for this.
