Who called from 2147235572

i am also getting several calls from different numbers can anyone give me the website through which i can file a similar complaints on the net like this number. Plz help me..

Update:

A consumer posting a complaint about these same scammers at http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-718-831-7157 notes that 718-831-7157 is associated with an India-based "outsourcing" telephone bank.  Though a reverse search on WhitePages.com shows that 718-831-7157 is an unlisted land line in New York City, information on Debtbuyers.Com shows that that number is used by India-based Intellisourze. (Source: http://www.debtbuyers.com/debtbuyers.asp ) My guess is that it's a VoIP phone number.

This is another piece of the puzzle that fits in perfectly with other information about this scam. There are some reports on 800Notes that have suggested that the crooks behind this offshore scam are also the crooks behind the notorious Bass/Ellis Crosby & Assoc./States Predisposition scams in Florida and Georgia. The interesting thing is that the number of complaints on here about the US National Bank/US Legal Investigation/Federal Investigation scam skyrocketed *after* April 7, 2008 when Florida obtained a $1.3 million judgment against Ted Ellis Crosby, shutdown his operations and barred him from ever conducting debt collections in Florida (Read http://myfloridalegal.com/newsrel.nsf/newsrel ... 5257424005858A6 ) There's certainly a good chance that the crooks placing these calls from India are doing so on behalf of the American crooks behind the Crosby/Bass/States Predisposition scams.

Here's the contact information for the phone bank in India:

A check on the domain name "intellisourze.com" shows that the website and name registration was created on May 8, just one month *after* the Crosby scams were shut down in Florida:

Though scam calls from these crooks have been going on long before May 8, the frequency of complaints about these calls increased considerably after Crosby was shut down in early April.

This is conjecture, but appearances suggest that Crosby and company were originally running a two-pronged payday loan scam operation -- with some calls being made from Jacksonville, Florida and other calls being made from a phone bank in India (and possibly other countries); then, after the Florida Attorney General shut down the Crosby scams in Florida, the Crosby crooks transferred most of their scam efforts to the India phone bank.

If you are targeted by these criminals, be sure to report them to all the following federal and state law enforcement agencies (most of which you can do online or over the phone):

1) The U.S. Secret Service is responsible for protecting the country's financial infrastructure and payment systems from international and domestic threats. Call or write your local Secret Service field office to alert them to the details of this attempted extortion. The addresses and phone numbers for the local Secret Service field offices are listed at http://www.secretservice.gov/field_offices.shtml or in your phone book.

2) Alert the FBI at https://tips.fbi.gov  Be sure to tell the FBI that you are being targeted by extortionists over the phone who are posing as federal law enforcement. Be sure to give as many details as you can.

3) File a complaint with your local police. Most police departments will take a report over the phone.  Be sure to tell them that you're being targeted by an extortionist and give them all the details.

4) File a complaint your state's attorney general, the contact information for whom is at www.naag.org

5) File a complaint online with The Federal Trade Commission at https://rn.ftc.gov/pls/dod/wsolcq$.startup?Z_ORG_CODE=PU01

If these crooks call back, promise them nothing, pay them nothing and tell them nothing other than that you know they're a scam and that you've reported them to law enforcement. (And be sure to report them to all the agencies above each time they call you.)

By the way, here's just a small sample of numbers used by this particular group of scammers. Read the reports and you'll see the same pattern time and again -- phony organization names, thick foreign accents, and oddly worded threats that are so melodramatic and ridiculous that it's laughable:

A man with a thick Indian accent called my office # asking for my co-worker saying he has committed criminal activity. I said call him, not me. He called back 3 times and asked for my co-workers supervisor. I said I was not at liberty to give that out and said why don't  you speak to my co-worker..he is right here. I transfered called and then looked up # in this site and saw it was a scam. I sametimed my co-worker to not give out his personal information and he didn't.
All is well, but I am sorry for the others that fall for this scam. Poor them. Some may be the elderly and that concerns me big time.

I have received phone calls on several occasions at my work and home phone.  The first calls came from a man named to be richard long, a second time it was from idian sounding lady, whom I asked not to phone me at work, and just  a a day ago I didnt not actually talk with the person who called my work.  But he left this bogos number that I cant call back (214-618-5897) said he was Don Wilson location Frisco,Texas, and was from financial crime division.  I as so tired of these harrasing phone calls.  They listen when you tell them to stop calling.  I am going to do what I can by some of the advise giving on this site.  What madness!

I recieved a message from this guy who I could not understand at all. Some officer yeah please. This is a scam. I called him back and notify him that I sent his number and message to the FBI. Which is true since my husband is a agent. I told him to never call me again he said fine and hung up. Then I called back and the voice mail picked up. Ok come on if it's a true debt collector they would have not hung up and shut off their phone. These are con artist beware.
