I live on the big island of Hawaii. Today, Martin Anderson of WCCI called me from Texas, saying a California prosecutor contacted him to find me about a payday advance incident and give me the whole "pay now or you will be prosecuted" schtick. Two years ago I was dumb enough to fall for this and sent over $500 to a company in Jacksonville Florida.
MARTIN ANDERSON is the name used. 832-377-3048 is the number.
He called me at work and absolutely refused my offer of repayment of my debt at the rate of $100.00/mnth. Says I will be arrested at work. When my account goes to someone honestly representing themselves and willing to take payments, I'll be ready!
I just got calls from this same number. He called 4x in a row but I don't answer numbers I don't recognize. He said his name was Thurston W. Free and that I am a person of interest. He didn't say what company he was calling from
This man keeps phoning our company for a person who doesn't work there anymore. Previous to yesterday's call, we were contacted regarding the company WCCI and found that they weren't exactly legitimate. There was a WCCI listed but I believe it is in a foreign country. This former employee phoned me right after the 1st call and I asked her about WCCI/John Lomax and she knew nothing about this company or this person. She doesn't owe any money (is debt free) and there is no reason someone should be attempting to contact her using the wording that he was using. Apparently, our call center is receiving these phone calls and forwarding them to myself and other coworkers in the department. Now the man has a name of Thurston W. Free. Ladybug, you are correct. There was no company name mentioned this time. Each time he has reached voice mail and not spoken directly to myself or my coworkers. At the end of each message left, he states "Good Luck".
I got a call from this number also and he said he was Investigator Thurston Free, claiming there were 2 charges against me. He said he was located in Washington DC and gave an address of 111 Corporate Square, Badge #16450. I googled the address and found nothing. He also called my place of work and said he had talked to my boss. I have already been ripped off once by people like this. Don't know where they get their information, but it is a scam, getting people to wire money to them. I am reporting them to the local police and attorney general's office.
WE JUST GOT A CALL AT MY HUSBANDS WORK FROM THIS NUMBER THREATENING TO TAKE MY HUSBAND TO JAIL. THIS IS A SCAM
I AM REPORTING THEM TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
