Ok, this is long, but I want to tell the whole thing to inform others. I just got off the phone with these people. They left me a message earlier today. They didn't say who they were or why they were calling. But they told me that I needed a lawyer and if they didn't hear from either me or my lawyer, they wished me good luck as the "events of my actions" unfolded in front of me. Not knowing what the hell it was, I called the number back from a different phone to find the name of the company. It was Federal Legislations. At this point I started to get nervous. I originally thought it was some kind of collection call. But when I heard the business name, I thought I'd better call to at least see what it was about. So of course, they told me that I had a lawsuit filed against me in the California Supreme Court for check fraud, giving false information, and a few other things. I was frightened at first, then when he told me it was for a payday loan that I took out on March 11th, I knew it was bulls*#t. He told me that the company by passed collecting the money from me and just decided to go straight to the Supreme Court. I demanded he tell me who the company was and he said their name was Cash Advance USA, and that they deposited "less than $500" into my checking account. I asked the exact amount and he said, "Less than $500." I said, "Yeah, you already said that....HOW MUCH!!!" He said $300 and I told him he was full of S*#T!!! He even told me that they already reported it to the credit bureau!! At this point, I was infuriated because I knew I had done nothing wrong. I told him that I could prove with no problem that no money was never deposited and threatened to file suit against THEM!!! When I said that, his toned changed and he actually said, "Ok, you think this is full of S*#T??" I said, "I KNOW IT IS!!!" and he told me I was right. The MORON actually started to tell me that it was a scam. That they get people's info, call them up, and tell them of fake lawsuits and threaten them to collect the money. This was after he told me he had some kind of proposition for me, which he never got to telling me what it was. But when he first said it, I was like, "A proposition?? What the hell does that mean?? You think I'm going to give you money??? What are you crazy??" He followed that one up with, "I don't want your money...." I'm sure my face was priceless at this point. So he tells me all this scam crap and then can't understand why I was even angrier than before. I said, "UUUMM, you call me, tell me I have freakin' felony charges that could land me in jail for a long time, tell me that you've reported it on my credit...then turn around and tell me that it's a scam and now claim to NOT have reported it to my credit, and you can't get why I'm upset???!! IDIOT!!!!" Then he says, "You're calling me stupid and an idiot, but I'm here making over $100,000.00 a month." I said, "Yeah, by making fraudulent calls, and stealing money from people!!!" He still tried to find out how much I make, and if I ws self employed. I said, "SERIOUSLY??? Do you really think I'm going to give you that info?? You're dumber than I thought!!!" I was going off!!! Yelling.....threatening a law suit of my own. At that point he said that I was not eligible for the loan...what ever that means.I said, "What loan???? You've already falsely accused me of taking one out and not paying!!!" So I got as much info from him as I could and told him that I WOULD be contacting MY lawyer and if they ever called me again I would press charges. And get this...they called back about 15 minutes later!!! I answered and said, "WHAT ARE YOU, ALLERGIC TO LISTENING???? IF YOU CONTINUE TO HARRASS ME, I'LL PRESS CHARGES!!!" There was no answer from which ever one of them was calling. I said, "HELLO???!!!" and they just hung up. The thing that frightens me the most is that they had all my info, my bank account #, my SSN, my address.....I'm now scared to death!!! I have to make a million calls tomorrow morning now to do what I can just incase!!! Oh....and I WILL be calling a lawyer, the better business bureau, and the FBI...no joke. There's got to be something they can at least investigate. Either way, it needs to be reported!!
They tried the same scam on me. I must have called them many times at different numbers and harassed them. I see it as, if I'm taking one line down they can not scam other person. They do everything to scary you to pay. DONT BE FOOLED
FYI - No us agency can ever stop this from happen, especially if they are not calling within the US. the US government has NO JURISDICTION out of the US. We must play fire with fire. Don't be scared people rise up and defend your selfs. If you have some spare time do what i'm doing, and call the sh)t out of them.
They are not from india they are from an arab country. They have spoofed there line therefore there is a good chance they are not calling with in the US. I think the use an IP telephone service like skype. they seem to disconnect all there lines at 8:30pm eastern time. I think if we all rise and call then as much as we can we can disrupt there scam.
THEY HAVE BEEN CALLING ME FOR WEEKS AND KEEP CALLING, I HAVE BEEN RECORDING THE CALLS ON MY PHONE AT WORK SO IF ANYTHING HAPPENS I HAVE PROOF. THIS IS A SCAM DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN.
So I get this call from 2094980510. It was a man with some foreign accent. They call me on my job and on my cell. It started yesterday. I finally answered today. The thing is Andy Hunt if that is his name gave me another number to call 2094986510for more information regarding the lawsuit.That number does not go through. I tried calling him back, his number did not go through either. So who are they? Anyone knows? I don't have a company name or anything.Just that I have a lawsuit against me. I don't even know from who.
I have recieved a call from 209-498-0510 but the call back number is 209-396-6910 the recording on my cell phone states this is about a legal matter and for me not to ignore the call. The name given is Charlie Gray (I think was the last name) the voice is foreign.
I also recieved a call at my job and my cell phone today from an Office John Bright stating he was from the FBI phone 804-480-4213 telling me that I owed $300.00 to an Advance Cash place from July of 2010, I tried to explain that I did not but he told me that if I didn't pay the $300.00 that I would have penalty of an additional $1500.00, 154 points take from my credit score and that I would not be allowed to draw my Social Security benefits!! What is this all about?! When I asked to speak to someone who spoke English and/or his supervisor he would not let me. He also threatened to contact my employer. I heard a lot of background noise, other people talking on the phone. I also asked if he was from the United States and he said Los Angles.
