Some guy called me saying I owed on a pay day loan and he was an attorney calling to collect. I think they get your information online somehow. It's a scam I'm sure!
This caller refuses to give a company name, but claims to be an attorney representing a pay day loan company. He states he cannot give me the name of the company but that I owe money and need to give my credit card information.
Kevin Williams is the name he used.He told me he was an officer investigating me for a debt I owe. He didn't tell me who the company was he was collecting for, but he told me he was going to be my worse nightmare. He was going to block my social security number, my bank account, and call my manager and have me fired. That shows how ignorant he is, because I do in home care for seniors there is no manager. In fact, he left a threatening voice message on my clients cell phone and thank goodness I intercepted it. She is in the beginning stages of dimentia and it would have reduced her to terror and tears. Please let me know how I can help stop this criminal weirdo before he really hurts someone financially.
Don't answer the calls, and whatever you do, don't call this loser back. If you can turn off the answering machine, do so. If not, log every attempt at contact. and keep documentation just in case someone's family member gets one of these messages. You can also direct anyone to this website; the links down the right side show literally hundreds of numbers this extortion attempt is linked to. Good luck.
I also received a messege from this number , dthis person did not identify himself he said he was from 'John Wright finacial Crime Investigation. He also, threathen to send "cops" to my job and speak to my manager to verify my social security ,before he send some cops to my home address, if f I don't return the call he will send the case to the court.
Never heard of any type of debt collecter doing such a thing.
