Received a message on cell phone last night and again this morning. Also this morning he called me at work. Saying his name is Peter Johnson from ACS and that I should call him back asap because there is a judgement against me and if I don't take care of it soon then it will hurt my credit...Help this is really annoying.
I have been receiving the same calls... What do you do? He told me my ss# was in trouble. I have contacted the police and the sheriffs department... What else can be done to stop these people?
I just got a message from someone, saying they received an affidavit against one of my friends and we both need to call to discuss a serious matter, that my name and number were mentioned in the affidavit. I'm not calling back, the number that showed on my cell is 052497347 and thew indian guy, sorry, I couldn't understand the name he used said to call back 347-289-3902, sounded like lots of noise in background like a call center or something. I think he said the name was Steven Wood.
I just got a few calls at work from the same guy with Indiana accent and he said the same thing.. I kept hanging up on him but it was the same phone number 347-289-3902, scared me at first, till I started researching this. Something needs to be done about CTS ASAP and have them put in jail.. Damn scammers!
This is a scam and he is not a debt collector for a legitimate agency because the tactics that he is using are illegal. I answer a switchboard and am dealing with the same jerk. He's overseas using voice over ip so there is little the authorities can do to stop him. Educate yourself on the Fair Credit Act and you will see what he's doing is illegal. He is even threatening me with arrest for refusing to put his calls through. After talking to an employee and doing research online I can tell you that these people get your information off of fishing websites that they have set up. They often know your information because without meaning to do so, you gave it to them. One individual said that they filled out a form online for a loan and when they got to the end they realized it was a payday loan or one with an enormous interest rate so they declined the offer. Too late though because they have your details. Change any phone numbers you are capable of changing and put everyone on notice.
