Same thing - left message saying from the office of litigation and to call them back blah blah blah.....Ridiculous. These scammers get info from online loan companies etc.... and need to be shut down permanently! Don't answer! Also googled and no such law/litigation number in Philly,PA.....
I've had this happen to me too. Call your local police department and report it and report it to the credit bureaus. If they call again or you can call them tell them that you've reported it and give them the case #
I have noticed that once I tell them I reported them to the FTC that they get hostile and eventually start calling again from a different number. Never the less it helps to let them know you are taking action.
Fraudulent or Zombie Debt Collectors—Things to Know
If you have received a call stating:
1. You have defrauded a financial institution
2. You owe an unpaid payday loan
3. You have a warrant due to an unpaid loan
5. You will receive a court summons
6. Authorities are coming to arrest you
7. Anything similar to above,
a. Do not give them any information or verify any information for them
b. Tell them you know they are a scam operating illegally and that you are filing a complaint with the appropriate authorities
* File a complaint with the FBI on their Internet Crime webpage http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
* File a complaint with the Attorney General for the state you live in
The more information and complaints there are, the better the chance of getting these criminals to stop (or at least reduce the frequency). [abstracted from another site]
They continue to bother you, tell them you are going to the police to make a complaint of extortion
I have been receiving these scam calls for years and it is such a neusance. They always have all of my info and the only thing I have been advised to do is file a claim with the Federal Trade Commission. These people use disguised numbers to call and fake names but are usually calling from out of the country. I have gotten to the point where I just don't answer any calls that I don't know the number.
Hey, you better change your account number they will take all of your money each time you put money in. I just start getting calls from this number and a couple of other numbers but the same people a scam that all this is about
