MY friend recieved a call from this number TODAY and the woman was barely able to speak English as well she stated that she was from the United States Financial Crime Division. She was threatened with a law suit and that a police report has been filed against her if she doesnt respond promptly! For some reason, the rep on the line was able to provide her with the last 4 digits of her social security number and her home address and work information as well. When she return the call to futher investigate the matter, there was no answer.

Better Business Bureau has issued a national alert about phony debt collectors that are calling consumers nationwide and claiming that they have defaulted on a payday loan and will be arrested if they don’t pay immediately.
Claiming to be lawyers, the scammers say they are with the “Financial Accountability Association” or the “Federal Legislation of Unsecured Loans” and often have the victim’s Social Security, old bank account numbers or driver’s license numbers as well as home addresses, employer information and even the names of personal friends and professional references.
recieved a call from an officer Jessica Brown stating she was with the US Financial Crime Division, and that the cops were on their way to my place of employment with a warrent to arrest me....they had my ss number work number ect. when i told them i would call them back after i got home from work that is when i was threatened with the cops.
been receiving numerous call from this Jessica Brown. She is a person trying to get money. This is the second person that tried to get me to send money. People like this need to go out a get a REAL job and leave us people alone.
"Officer" Steve Williams called and left me a voicemail that a legal case file would be "download" in my state today and that I should get a lawyer if I wasn't going to call him back. Then he called my mother at work and told her I had listed her as a "reference" and that she needed to get me to call him. I have never listed my mother as a reference for anything, and I would never give her work number out. This guy has the last four of my social and my address, as well. I reported it to the FTC, as did my mom. The name of the company he gave was US Investigations Bureau Crime Prevention Department.
