i got a call maybe 6 times now, everytime i answer its the same thing. they say they're from a law firm and i'm in serious trouble. lawsuits against me. the first time i ask the guy, "where are you calling from?" he replied, "from a telephone" LOL. that's how i knew it was a scam!
They called my husband work and us said the same stuff.I told them off I even gave them are attorney name number they didn't call her.They should get real jobs and leave americans alone.Maybe we should do this to there country.All I have to say is stupid people.
They did this several times at my place of business and I was even threatened saying that he was going to call til he got me fired. He even was talking to my boss and cursed him out. THIS IS RIDICULOUS BUT THANKS TO THE RECORDING WE HAVE HIM DOWN :)
This woman by the name of Angela Jackson has been calling my job harassing me since last Thursday. She has a foreign accent. When she called she expressed that she had my social security number and it can mess up my credit if they sue me. I asked her not to call my job using idle threats and I also warned her that I work for the Federal Government and she said she didn't care who I work for and she's going to keep on calling me which she did three times that day. I knew something was wrong then. She also called yesterday...the dummy and left a message supposedly using threat tactics for my supervisor telling her that I am conducting illegal activities over the internet. Anybody with common sense knew we were off for Presidents Day yesterday. I have 4 message she left on my phone which is for Govt calls only. She kept calling and hanging up today so I called my lawyer. He told me to call them back and asked for name of the company and leave them his name and phone number and have them to call him.
I called them this evening after I got home from work and a man answered the phone. I told him that this call is being recorded for quality purposes and anything he say can be used against him in the court of law. I asked him if I could please speak Angela Jackson and he kept telling me he is her supervisor and I can discuss any matters with him and I demanded him that I must speak with her and he put me on hold with some weird music playing in the background. When Angela got on the phone I told her the same thing about this call is being recorded...Then I told her the reason why I was calling and why did she keep calling my job when I asked her not to. I also told her that I am aware that she is using an alias name which is fraudulent. I could tell she was getting nervous because she had to ask me what number did she call ( I gave her the number like they didn't have it already). She said if you had only gave me another number I wouldn't kept calling you on your job. I told her that I had warned her and now the matter is serious. I told her to get a pen and paper so she can write down my lawyer's name and phone number.
Angela insisted that I speak with her supervisor and I told her your supervisor didn't leave me didn't leave me the threatening messages. I informed you I was an Govt employee several times and yet you didn't take it to heart. We have lawyers that represent govt employees free of charge in cases like this. She got off the phone immediately and switch me to her so-call supervisor. I had to asked him 3 times to give me the name of the company and finally he said this is a law firm and we're suing you on behalf of Advance Cash Payday loan. I said okay wise guy as I told you earlier this call is being recorded and we are aware of your scam and this call is being traced as we speak and you need to take the name and phone of my lawyer because you're the one who's going to need one and he hung up.
I called back three more times just to torment him and he kept hanging up. The Dept of Defense do not take Identify theft lightly. They have a zero tolerance level for situations like this. What I'm trying to figure out is how did they get my number because everybody's prefix was recently changed in December 2010 and it's not listed. This was a measure the govt took because of phishing and identify theft. My job is now doing an investigation on how did they got my desk number. They're thinking that they must have called through customer service and transferred the call because the number on the caller ID was coded the first three time. Angels must have called customer service again and told them that she kept getting disconnected and they gave her my direct number. I'm getting ready to go on facebook and remove my place of employment.
