It's a scam that goes by such names as MoreStar Consultancy, LLC; Litigation Consulting Service, LLC; Claims & Warrants; and North American Asset Investigation Bureau, LLC (NAAIB). For details, read consumer credit advocate Bud Hibbs' report on these scammers: http://budhibbs.com/debtcollectorpages/NAAIB.htm
One thing it remember is that anytime someone calls you demanding money to prevent your arrest or criminal charges, it is ALWAYS a scam. No debt collector (let alone criminals posing as debt collectors) have the authority to have anyone arrested for anything. (And it's illegal to them to threaten such a thing.) These type of crooks also routinely impersonate FBI agents, police and other law enforcement officials, which, obviously, is illegal as well. (Besides, law enforcement officers aren't in the business of debt collection, and debt is a civil, not a criminal, matter.)
The bottom line is, these are criminals trying to steal your money. Ignore their illegal threats and report their attempts to extort money from you to all these federal and state law enforcement agencies:
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 and give them all the details.
3) Maryland Attorney General http://www.oag.state.md.us/Consumer/complaint.htm (Litigation Consulting claims to be in Maryland)
4) Your state's attorney general, the contact information for whom is at www.naag.org
5) 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.
6) File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/FTC_Wizard.aspx?Lang=en
If these criminals call back, tell them that they aren't getting any money from you and that you've reported their scam to federal and state law enforcement. They will react with the usual moronic, false threats. If possible, try to save any voice messages they leave and, if legal in your state, record their calls if you speak with them. (Inexpensive phone recorders are available at Radio Shack-type stores.)
this person calls my house every day, funny thin is - i have no debt, no mortgage only in the usa 2 months, she wanted a social security #, my bank account , i gave her a few choice words, she said that the local authorities would be on thereway in 24 hours, , i told her to come visit herself, and that she is a wuss, she said some foul language then hung up. i am sure she will call call tomorrow
I too have received calls from these criminals. I spoke with a Mrs. Pearson, Robert Lorne, and Daniel Hoffman. They have called from 240-764-4255, 240-696-8261, and 240-696-1779. I have contact the sheriff, local police, FBI, FCC, Attorney General, and FTC. I'm going to do whatever I can to bust these people.
how about you put as much effort into coming up with the money you owe as you do in trying to report them,pay your bills and you wont have to worry about anything dead beat

AND NO I DONT WORK FOR THESE FOOLS, I JUST REC'D A CALL IN ERROR AND I SPOKE WITH A WOMAN REPRESENTING THE COMPANY, WHO SHINED A LIGHT ON THE SITUATION, ALL THIS COMPANY DOES IS LOCATE PEOPLE FOR ATTY'S WHO REPRESENT CREDITORS SO THEY CAN PROPERLY DELIVER SUMMONS TO APPEAR IN COURT FOR PAST DUE BILLS. THEY DONT EVEN WANT YOUR MONEY, THEY OFFER OUT OF COURT SETTLEMENTS AS A CONVIENCE SO YOU DONT HAVE TO PAY FOR ATTYS AND COURT COSTS NOT TO MENTION YOU'D ONLY BE PAYING A PORTION OF THE BALANCE INSTEAD OF PAYING THE WHOLE THING PLUS INTEREST.
