I have been getting these same scam calls from several people All with a heavy Okie/Texas accent-voice is ethnic.
They demand SS #, Name, Credit Card info
If they are calling me about any debt, felony, name associated with a tel # they should have my name - RIGHT!
Well, I have blocked all calls, everyone should do the same. As soon as the call comes in answer, hang up and then post the number to your contacts and block
I so far have blocked 12 numbers and they continue to come up with new numbers AMAZING
If you do not answer they leave a 5 min vm message same script as when they start talking.
Everyone should contact their local FBI offices since the scam has crossed state lines which now makes it a federal fraud case and the feds have better access to find owners or ping the callers # for exact location and raid the boiler room operation.
How many have been tricked, how many people are fools to believe this total [***] they are trying to sell?
I have never received calls like this.
Best part is the cell # they are calling is a pay by the min unregistered untitled phone a burner if you want to get technical that I have had for yrs so how do they have a debt, felony prosection to a phone that has no name attached to it.
Everyone should tel their senior citizen parent to not fall for this scam
SCAMMERS GIVE UP-WE HAVE NOTIFIED ALL FEDERAL, STATE LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT PROSECUTION TEAMS AND YOUR TIME IS LIMITED IF NOT TOMORROW LIKE YOU SAY WE SHOULD SEND YOU $ MAYBE TOMORROW THE KNOCK ON THE DOOR WILL BE THE ARREST TEAM
I just received the exact same call with the exact same prerecorded voice mail. I have been receiving a lot of these scam payday collection calls for the past month, all from different numbers saying legal mediation, blah blah. I'm so over it - give up already! Everyone is on to your scam! Also receiving scam calls from:
228-207-2635 instructing me to call 844-388-5435
303-562-1923
720-381-1628
844-276-0353
228-533-8570
I just received my first call from this number. However, this isn't the first time I have received a phone call about this.
I received my first call on 4/7/15 from (786) 369-1661. They called twice from this number and then switched numbers.
I received two calls on 4/8/15 from (305) 509-6477.
I received two calls on 4/13/15 from (720) 943-3040. This was when they first used a Colorado area code.
The calls stopped for a while and I thought they were going to just give up on me. Finally.
On 5/4, I received a call from a "Michael Thompson" using the phone number (720) 961-4499.
On 5/7, I received a call from a "Russell Bale (sp?) with Legal Mediation Division 217" using (303) 951-4754.
They stopped for a while and then today I received a call from "Julie Hyman" using (303) 565-5762.
This is just getting ridiculous. The messages are worded differently but it's so obviously a scam to get personal information out of you. The fact that my "telephone number and possibly your social security number" could be linked to a transaction just sold me on the fact that this is a scam. They need to be stopped already.
I too have received the exact same calls, they told me I was being combative because I was asking questions. Sorry if you cannot mail me a letter of validation then I can't agree to any terms.
so the woman that keeps calling me while i'm at work says that i will be facing two felony charges if i didn't pay $578 today, goes by the name Brandy Byers. i spoke for a while, told her to call me on my lunch break. she calls me back. i ignored her call. so she calls me repeatedly from a blocked call! I finally answer considering the fact that she was interupting my work. she doesn't answer. when i hang up and call back another guy answers. so i decide to request some sort of document supporting their legal reason to be calling me! the man says he's transfering me but than i get disconnected. i've had this number for years now. but am definitely considering to change it after all this bs today!
