I received a call from this Officer John Peterson on my cell, when I did not answer, he then called my place of employment. I contacted him back and when he answered I informed him that he is not to call my place of business anymore and if he needed to speak with me to call me on the number that he called first. He then proceeded to tell me that he is with a law firm and that I have a case sitting in his office. I asked him what was the case #, the name of the law firm and his customer ID number. He was furious about all of the questions I started asking and became irate and started using profanity and sexual language. I then told him that I was going to contact my local police department and make a report as well as with the FBI. He hung up but called right back. I begin to tell him that I have made my reports as well as with the Federal Trade Commission and he is not to dial either one of my numbers again. If he called back, I would personally come look for him myself, have him arrested, and I would press charges as well as sue him for everything that he has including the shoes on his feet. Honestly, I think that this will work. The number is through MagicJack. Even though they will tell you that an officer has to call in order to get information about that persons account, call them anyway and inform them that this person is harassing you and you would like to report them. Their number is 561-594-9925. If people call, then maybe they will do something about it.
Received a message from my work that this number called twice for me and said that it was urgent that I call back. "John Peterson 202-241-9258 Washington, D.C. Crime Investigators Dept." was the message I was given on a post-it note. I already suspected what was up since a similar scam call came to my work several months ago, so decided to check the number out first. It sucks that these people can just keep doing this outrageous [***] and just keep getting away with it. Will just have to make my employer, my lawyer, and the authorities aware of what is going on and see if there is anything that can be done about it.
I just got the message, too. He said he was an officer and he had an heavy Indian accent. He knew the last 4 of my soical security number. He said he will contact my job and seen a police out to my home. When I called back it went straight to there voice mail. I believe they did call my job but I wasn't there.
Recieved a call on my cell from someone..could hardly understand him said his name was officer Peterson and I needed to call back or he was going to call my manager or come to my home.Didn't return a call..figured it was a scam.[***].
