I recevied a threating message from Shawn Michaels stating that I was to call him at 213-992-0686 or I would be sorry. If you call this number the guy answeres the phone Shawn Taylor and he claims to be an attorney. This guy wants $800 dollars to cover a check, don't ever recall writing a check for that amount let alone it bouncing. To settle this out of court he wanted a letter with all my personnal information on it including my credit card or debit card information to settle this out of court. The fax number he provided was a 714 area code (could not uderstand the whole number as english was not his first lanuage) This is really fishy, I told this guy to go to h___!!
I JUST RECEIVED A CALL FROM SHAWN MICHAELS STATING THAT I OWED MONEY FROM A INTERNATIONAL LOAN COMPANY THAT I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF AND HE WANTED MY ATTORNEY TO CALL HIM AT THIS NUMBER OR I WOULD BE SORRY. HE THEN HUNG UP ON ME WHEN I TOLD HIM I WANTED HIM TO STAY ON THE LINE LONG ENOUGH SO HE COULD BE TRACED.
I just received a call from a Shawn taylor Telling me that if I did not call him back I would be sorry then he asked me to pay $945.00 to settle out of court from a first cash international . I asked him for something in writing he said it was illegal and that he can only send it to my attorney and not me and that he need a letter with all of my information inclding credit card number and expiration and billing address and even the security code so he coul dprocess the payments and file it with the courts of california . Me like a dummy I almost paid it I am a victim of Identity theft from a family member already . This guy is creepy and the fact that he wouldnt provide any paperwork to back up his allegations against me was a bit suspicious .
I've posted before but I just want to post again. If you have recieved calls like this, like I had the other today make sure you report it to the FTC. I called and the lady was really nice and told me not to panic. She said its a ongoing scam that these people are doing to people. I almost paid as well.. Oddly the same amount as the person above was requested. $945, they wanted it in two payments with a notarized letter, my credit card number and a state ID.. The letter had to state that I agree that I owe this money. When has a bill collector ever asked for a notorized letter?? I can't believe I was worried for a minute. I was told that they might get you personal information from a credit report so be sure to do a fraud alert, you can do it easy online. I ended up changing my number as they kept calling and calling, about 15 times. I hope they don't call work again, its my line but I have informed most people at my job what happened. They advised if they call to state that personal calls arent allowed and you need to contact her at home. the number they have is now disconnceted! yay... These people suck!
