For some time now I have received these calls claiming that I owe money for a payday advance. They threatend me to the point that I called my local police department as they gave me the name to a Detective. They told me it was fraudulent. The scam artist call from a Boston Landline but today they called me from a Los Angeles number. The woman spoke with a thick accent and it sounded as she was sitting in a cafe'. I screamed at the woman and told her she was a scam and leave me alone. She continued threatning me saying she woud see me in court. I know she is fake, scammer. DO NOT FALL FOR THEM! They want you to send them money via Western Union/money Gram to avoid court.
I received same call from these people saying that they were gonna take me to court as well if I did not pay them. I called the payday loan place and they sad it was a scam as well. Caller said his name was Micheal Brow and called from 213-289-3741 he also had a thick accent and was very rude.
I received the same phone call from them aswell, first thier was a guy speaking about a loan.. then he handed the phone to a lady who claims her name is LISA WILLIAMS from some law firm.. and on the phone call sounds like their was a 2 second delay...they even called on my WORK PHONE. whats really strange is that they knew what bank i was with.. an my personal email address, ive called the bank an everything they said it was a SCAM. and as for the lawfirm.. a complete FAKE.
SO HEADS UP EVERYONE! do NOT give your bank account number or anything to these FAKERS!
[***] tell em to KICK ROCKS and find a REAL JOB!
They are getting short on American Names. Lisa Williams was the one I talked to yesterday, but Sandra Williams (who sounded the same) has called me in the past saying they worked for IC3.
They have a ton of phone numbers, and all sorts of scams to scare people into giving them money.
OK SO THE SCAMMERS STRIKE AGAIN!
So they called me at 6:14 PM, and I pose as my brother "Chris". (I don't have a brother Chris) And Ironically they were giving information that they normally wouldn't release about someone else's case.
So I, as Chris, Played the good brother roll to say I would help him, and let me check my account.
I call back, as myself this time, who is supposedly sitting in jail, and start with "Ok, so I have no more loans ma'am, how is this even possible." just as funny she was as confused as I was. Then I put my "Attorney" on the line (I don't have one of those either) and she refused to speak without a Bar Number.
After "I" got the phone back, I made a statement that "You guys say you are out of San Diego but you have a Los Angeles Area Code, WTF?" and she rambled on about Having that right to change her number. I kept her going for about 9 and a half minutes total, she was getting frustrated and told me to call her when I am ready to resolve this issue. I know its a scam and for once I answered their call to toy with them. THAT IS HOW TO BEAT THEM. Build them up like you may pay, call back and f**k with them for a bit, and see how it plays out. NOTE: If you decide to call them back, *67 your phone first so the ID is blocked.
