OMG these freakazoids called me today and they called my work...saying that if i dont pay them money Im going to jail. They told me to enjoy my last weekend of freedom....scared me to death...then my Mom told me she got the same call a week ago!! She didnt pay it any mind bc she knew it was a scam but i was completely caught off guard!! I hope they catch these idiots. Ugh.
They use various phone numbers - this one and 510-544-0204 and 305-230-4996. Now they are also using females to make these calls. they tell you they have your social security number too. Sounds like the calls are recorded as they will call back and say exactly the same thing, exactly the same way, inflection and all. I have blocked the numbers on my phone now, but they come up with different numbers. This is a phising scam that tries to scare you into sending them money. If you tell them you are in law enforcement or an attorney they hang up fast.
I don't understand why our government can't stop them so that the calls don't happen in the first place and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law for anyone that they have collected from illegally.
Never answer their questions, just question them if you want to have fun with them. They usually hang up.
YES I'VE GOTTEN THE SAME CALL, FROM KEVIN ANDERSON. THEY ARE COMING TO ARREST ME FRIDAY MORNING IF I DON'T PAY $8,000+. THERE IS A WARRENT FOR MY ARREST FOR BANK FRAUD!
I HAVE TRACED THIS NUMBER TO THE STATE OF WASHINGTON AND HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE WASHING STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, MY STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL AND THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AND THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATION COMMISSION. I SUGGEST YOU DO THE SAME. ALONG WITH THIS THEY HAVE HACKED INTO MY WESTERN UNION FILE AND TRIED TO SEND MONEY FROM IT. IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOU CALL WESTERN UNION IMMEDIATELY AND CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT WITH THEM AND ANY TRANSACTIONS THAT YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE.
OMG! I just got a call from this Asian guy too. I was scared to death when they said I was going to get arrested for not paying a bill. People are so crazy!
