Today I got 10 calls from this person, telling me that there is a lawsuit pending. I asked them from whom. Couldn't tell me, wouldn't let me speak to a supervisor. This person as an over seas accent.
hey i just got a call from them as well and what i did was file a complain with the FTC (Federal Trade Commision) First check out this site: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/
after that go to google and type ftc and then click contact us link and call this number 1-877-FTC-HELP
make sure you have the name of the person who called you, the guy that called me was called james parker and mike jones, after that make sure you ask for a 30 or 90 day free credit watch i think thats what its called because its some fraud thing seeing that they have your personal information...other than that the only other thing to do is change your number and make sure you do NOT pay these people any money becasue they will try to scare you and wouldnt be bad to have an attorney call them..a collections attorney, out here in new york it would be Kenneth Hiller

I also recieved a call saying they were going to sue me for something but I don't have a bank account. They said something about a cash advance and the name of a bank that is used for my pre-paid cards. I think its a third-party scam with GreenDot cards.
