My roommate recieved a call from +052569163, the gentleman (I Use that turm loosely) I.D.'ed himself as Officer Scott and needed to get ahold of her mother to get some legal paperwork from her. My roommate asked for a return number to give to her mother, (206-21-1752) as the number given. When I looked at the number, I told her that it was a scam and not to worry about it.
Being a Private Investigator, I just had to call and see what info i could get from them. After three attempts I finally reached someone and asked for Officer Scott. When Officer Scott got on the phone I told him that I had a few questions for him. He said that he would answer them if he could. I asked for his full name, what agency he worked for and his badge No. he told me not to worry about that and i neede to co-operate with him or else. I told him "No, you need to give this information before I would talk to him". He again said I needed me to co-oprater or else. In return I said "no, I need your info and that I had already contacted the FBI." He made some other comment that I couldn't understand and hungup on me. I filed a report with local P.D.
i got a call from them yesterday and they lm on my voicemail i couldn't understand much so i just deleted it, then they called my mother's cell # and she called me. When i called the number back i couldn't make out much except money and court. i told them to send it in writing. My husband then called them and they hung up on him. they couldn't give me an exact amount for what i owed, or what company they were from. i contacted my bank and double checked all my statements to make sure i hadn't recieved any money from an outside source and i hadn't, i also came to work today and there was a voicemail from them on my machine. i think i'm gonna call the consumer protection agency as well regarding this. oh and my guy's name was officer Mark Nixon

My son received a call from the same number 206-212-1725 and told him he was investigating me, demanding that he must help or would be in big trouble. The name was not intelligible, of course he called very worried about what was happening to me. When I called back blocking my number I could not understand what he was saying the connection was so bad and he hung up on me. its not a land line because you can dial 1+ or just the 10-digit number.
The second time, I still could not make out his name asking him to repeat it. All I could pull out of him was he stated that he belonged to the Department of Investigations in Washington DC. I asked him if this was the Washington DC police department...he hesistated and said 'yes'. I asked again if he was a police officer and again he stated 'yes'.
To make this a short story, the main thing I noticed during this call, a woman was in the background repeating every word I said in clear English before he would speak. I told him the connection was too bad and would call the DC police department so I could better here him. Of course he yelled something then hung up. My phone displayed the wireless number as Des Moines, WA.
I think the voice was from someone in the Carribean. When I had problems with OSL/SSM payday loans they gave an address for Nevis island. Of course OSL/SSM has an 800 number not a US termination. Be careful of any loans or emails from this company.
Thank you all very much for your information and advice.
I received several calls on my job in which I was very disturbed about from the number 206-212-1725. I called back but no one answered so I left a vm. I immediately typed the phone number in Google and got this information. Thanks everyone for the helpful information. I guess I will just have to endure the harrassment since the authorities doesn't seem to care as long as we are not paying them anything. It was kind of scary because they are saying they have my ss#.
I received a message from someone identifying themselves as Officer John Garcia. They had a very strong Indian accent, spoke very fast and the connection was very broken. I tried returning the call the same night to 206-212-1725, but it seemed I copied the number down wrong. I decided to call back the next day and was able to get through. When I asked what company I was calling, They only said the department of investigation. They tried to convince me that I owed money and if I chose not to settle out of court by paying them $326, I would end up spending 15 days in jail. The whole conversation was as bad as the message. The connection was really broken and he tried to convince me it was my phone. He offerred to call me back and I agreed, the number came thru really weird. It was 052569163. After a heated conversation and being transferred around, they hung up on me. Hopefully they'll never call back. Glad I didn't fall for it.
