Someone from this cell phone number keeps calling my home and work - person can hardly say my name correctly, but claims there is a law suit pending against me. This seems to happen every few months, I continue to report to FCC, my state's Attorney General's office, but call continue. Scary because they have my work number, etc. Would appreciate some advise on how to handle this.
This appears to be a foreigner with a cell phone that calls himself “Officer So and So” and claims to be a representative of the “U.S. Law Firm New York Headquarters.” If you have ever applied for a Pay Day loan or shared your personal information with a financial institution that was not a bank, chances are these crooks got your personal information. This guy can barely speak English and he seems to be networked with other cell phones with various area codes and locations the common denominator here is that NONE of these people can speak English. The accent appears to be from India. I found to call this number back would go to voicemail. They never pick up. These are scam artists and crooks. The kind that email you about how you won several million dollars inherited but the email doesn’t even have your name in it and it always seem to come from Africa. Curious…
Confront these people if they call you. Call them on their bluff. Don’t let that they have your personal information scare you. Your information is easier to obtain than you think owing to the Freedom of Information Act. Bottom line:
DON’T PAY THEM ANYTHING.
Tell them to go jump in the lake and laugh at them.
Yep getting the same info as Leonardo. They use the scare tactic saying "you will be arrested". I tell them to send the cops because this is fraud. They don't scare me just really frustrating because you finally get one number stopped and then they use another.
