He also told me his name was Troy Russell (as someone specified previously) and he told me word by word what to fax him, as well as he asked me to fax him my debit card number...Yeah right! like I'm going to really do that. Usually when you owe a debt, they do not tell you to fax them your credit card number, they have you pay Western Union. What scares me though is the fact he had my social security number. Yes people payday loans are trouble, I've had a couple and I'm sure that's how they got my information as well. They could off easily sold my information, or someone could off just hacked in and stole my information.
I never answer my phone unless I know the number, well I got a phone call on my cell phone from a unknown number and let the voicemail get it and then listened to the message...it was a middle eastern guy telling me that I had a lawsuit against me and said something else but I could not understand him but I did hear the number he wanted me to call back on 206-801-3409...I did not call back instead typed the number in my browser and clicked on this website...lucky for me I did cause now I know I am not the only one that this has happened to, and I now know he is a phony.
This guys name was John McCormick..he did not say what company he was with if he did I couldn't understand his gibberish.
I just got a call from that "Erick Foster" guy this evening. When i heard something about fraud, and a pending case, etc, i decided i had better google the 'callback' number, and make sure it wasn't some BS scam. Sure glad i did!
Just got a call from an "Eric Foster" that stated that there was a fraud case pending against me and that I needed to get back to him asap or I would loose my job, destroy my reputation and credit rating.OMG, he even had the last four of my ss#. I am sooo glad that I googled this number. It takes a load off of my mind. He also stated that it would be in my best interest to get back to him immediately. When I did call, all circuits are busy at this time, was all that I got. I won't be calling again. I wqill call AT&T and let them know what is going on.
Thank-you to everyone for posting.

Does any one know who this guy is? and what company does he really work for? He also said he was from the " Federal Fraud Investigation Bureau"
Not sure what to do know?
