I got a call on VM from 281you 241 6239 saying to call this number 1 855 245 1259 and the name Legal Check Recovery. The number (855 245 1259) I got no answer so I called the 281 241 6239 and the man answered Processing and I told him file number and said that it was red flagged and put me on line with attorney Tim Hoffman saying to turn myself in or at 3pmthe the police would be at my door. I asked what about and he says payday loans I got from 2007 and 2008 and it's felony arrest for me, I tried telling him I'm in debt consolidation program and he said they not going to sit in kail for me, I tried to talk agot very nasty and rude after I wouldn't tell him where I was and said this how you want to play it then go to jail and I have a 35,000 bond and he would tell them I refused to cooperate. I went to police station to see and the officee told me no I dont have warrants and then he talked to the investigator and she says she has gotten calls like this from ppl saying the same thing. I was in tears and still very shaken and scared by this, could anyone respond back to me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Report the caller to your state attorney general's office. It is illegal to claim to be an attorney (and to be with the AG's office) if they are not & to make threats such as arrest or jail.
You did the correct thing---hang up on them.
Ya know, I think I will just bc he was so freakin rude. He was actually yelling at me and I never raised my voice. He needs a real job...something less stressful for sure!! Lol
Now he's calling from 281-764-9499....the lady is anyway. Then she transfers you to Timothy Hoffman from the District Attorney's office. Right after I hung up...they tried to call back from an "unknown" number.
I received a call today from him stating I would be arrested at 5:00 pm tonight if I did not pay 1400 in restitution on check fraud 2 counts of felonies. I started asking questions of him like what the case number was and what district attorney hired him. He couldn't provide me anything rather wouldn't just told me he was pulling the restitution offer and that I could turn myself in or be arrested. I contacted local county atty office and they had no record couldnt give me any advice other than if I was being harrassed by a collector to call the local authorities. I figured I would assume she was meaning to read between the lines and contacted local county sheriff office who put me in contact with officer and guess what they wouldn't take his call when he called them.... He then called from blocked number and spoke to Tim Hoffman and guess what he couldnt' give any information and got mad. :) THIS IS SO WRONG!!!! HOW CAN WE STOP THIS MAN AND HIS PEOPLE!!!!
