this person identified himself to my family member as special agent cameron price and said a civil suit was being filed against me so my sister in law called me and told me about it i called him back and was treated very rudely and told i needed to pay them 3000.00 for a $500 credit card from back in 2002. i didnt even know what he was talking about so i hung up. he wouldnt tell me the company name or anything and the credit card name was even one i recognized ever even having. i am contacting the BBB.
this is me again and wanted to elaborate on my previous posting. my brother who lives in illinois had a message also for me on his answering machine saying i was being taken to court and to tell me "good luck" by "special agent cameron pryce" so i called the number back and told mr pryce not to call my family and that i sent all of this info to the FBI tipline, get this he then calls back to my house and pretends to be the FBI and i recognized his voice and he wouldnt tell me his name so i knew he wasnt FBI. i then called my local sheriff and gave them his number and the sheriff called and left a message for "special agent pryce to call him back regarding harassment to me because an answering machine picked up when the sheriffs dept. called. wonder if they have caller id eh?
Said he was a collection agency threatening legal action. Also said to send money to Lawrence Johnson. Gave me no phone number for Mr. Johnson out of Buffalo NY. I think this is a scam. Gave no proof they were associated with the bank that had the debt.
This guy named cameran price called and said he was a "special investigator" and that Ihad to pay money or legal proceedings would be put against me IN ANOTHER STATE all the way across the country! He said I had some debt with a credit card and to contact him or I was in trouble.
It's scam. They go by various names such 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://rn.ftc.gov/pls/dod/wsolcq$.startup?Z_ORG_CODE=PU01
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.)
