I got the call and let it go to voicemail. They left a message saying They had a legal case against me and for that reason, I would be arrested from my work place or home. When I called her back it was the same woman that was in the recording. She said if I didn't resolve it now, I would go to jail for 6-8 months and be charged 5,500 instead of the $998 she was asking for. They said they were from cash net financial and a lawyer for the company suing me. She never gave me a name but when I asked what company and debt this was pertaining to she could tell me nothing. She then said I could not call her back and if we got off the phone, it would end the possibility of resolving the matter and I would go to jail. She also said that it would need to be paid in cash and they would take no personal information that they would need to run credit cards or debit cards. I told her that I have now tracked her address and she would be the one going to jail. I got off the phone and googled both the company, which has been out of business for 3 years, and the number. When I called her back, there was no answer. Definitely a scam.
I had the same exact message, they have done this to a lot of people and family it is sick that these people are doing this to people and need to be stopped.
I got this same call. Its friggin Indian scammers. Its from the L.A. Hollywood area. I'm working on getting the exact address. I called them and said I was on my way to their house. So what I do when I get these calls are to tell them I'm gonna find them and handle them myself. If you know what I am saying.
Don't waste your time. These callers are most likely scammer/extortionists located in India. You can't prevent the calls from being initiated, but you can protect yourself. Invest in a call-blocker.
