They are saying attorney of "record". It took me about 5 calls to realize this. These people have been calling my work since 2009 threatening me. I have been threatened so many times in the last 2 years I can't remember them all. They were going to get me fired from my job, they were coming to remove me from work, and the last one that called was an obsene call. He was panting and moaning. It's disgusting. Why are they still calling after all this time?? I would have thought by now they would give up and realize they're not getting any $ out of me. I just got a call this morning only from a woman this time. Told her the same thing I've been saying for years. I'm not giving you a dime. They are nothing but lowlifes.... why can't they be stopped???
I received the exact same phone call on my cell number and they are saying attorney of record. They were calling my home number but I had it changed and unlisted private number so they can't get it again. But this is a BIG scam I have also reported it to the police department but at that time the calls were coming from a Texas phone number. I think they are using a phone called a MagicJack that you can get at Radio Shack and pick any phone number and area code they want. So people BEWARE they are just trying to get money from you. The police said they could possibly be a terrorist cell sounds outrageous but scared me. Just don't talk to them or return the phone call. Good luck everyone!
They called me today, They called is the 5 time but from a different number. You can tell them the following and they will stop from one number and call from different number in about two month.
Said them you have contact the state attorney office california and they are going to fill feds chargers at them. They will hangup and leave you a loan.
Wow. This is crazy. The same rude "indian origin" (PC?) people have called me & my wife everyday several times. Glad I googled it and saw what you nice people had to say. Unfortunately for them, I am a 17-year vetran of our State's Criminal Law Enforcement Division & I have just contacted our local United States Prosecutor General's office and told a friend of mine there what is going on. Very tough to get much done across state lines, but he will look into it for me. DO NOT give them any personal information or even the time of day. The operators are extremely rude & aggressive. Our credit is perfect & I would have know if court proceedings were being brought against me long before a creditor would. I have called the 209-498-0913 number twice & told the operator that I had all of their personal information & was in the process of filing Felony Criminal charges of Harasssment by Telephone, & that I was put if fear of my families safety (not in fear, but that is the core element to getting results from Law Enforcement. I just put a call in to one of my friends at our local FBI field office. Since these actions are crossing state lines, this is now a Federal Offense. Can't seem to get a single operator to talk to me now! LOL. Good Luck folks! REMEMBER-DO NOT CURSE AT THEM-this will only weaken you case & make you seem desperate.
