Caller claimed to be "Investigator Robert Warren" and advised there was something being filed "with the county". Nothing specific, and he had the wrong name. A lot of pretend legal jargon, etc. Called the number back and it went to a general voicemail box.
Caller said she was "Investigator Elisa Banks" and advised a civil complaint had been filed in some county. Could not understand what she was saying. A lot of so called legal misreprentation. Left an affidavit case number and the number 240-696-1779 and 240-482-8284 and asked I return the call. From what I have read, this is illegal to use threatening tactics. I saved it on my phone.
Received a call from "Special Investigator" Elisa Banks. We were not home to answer the call, but she left a message stating that she was calling in regard to a legal case where we were being summoned as a respondent. She did not say who she was representing or give any other identifying information. Just a phone number with instructions to call immediately and refer to the case number she provided. This was very suspicious to us, so I went online and Googled her number and found that I was right to be suspicious. We did not call her back and nor will we ever. If someone needs to get in touch with me about a legal matter, then they need to send me the summons by mail! Don't fall for this scam!
Received a call from 240-482-8384 telling me to call re: a civil complaint where I am the respondent. They left a case number also. Got suspicious because the phone number is in Maryland and we are in CA. Googled the number and got to this site.
What can be done about this scams? The number is a land line in Bethesda, MA, and could be connected to a name.
Is there any legal action that we can take?
Thanks.
Received a call from a person claiming to be an investigator "Anita Banks" at 240-482-8284. Person claimed I was named in a civil lawsuit from the county. Got suspicious and Googled the number and got this site. I called back and asked a lot of questions and ate popcorn in the phone. The person said I was rued for eating in their ear and I asked them why they were scamming people and they hung up.
We called the FL State Attorney Generals office and they said to call MD State Attorney Generals office. MD said to write a letter and we did. I have passed this number out to my fiends and neighbors and we have be taking turns calling the scammers back to give them a hard time!
