I placed a call to this number about 45min. ago to speak with the business person in charge to verify employment on all listed allias company employees and names used by the male rep. with heavy accent whom just answered my call (ie. John Martin, Mark White, Paul Baker or Barker, Adam Jackson, Officer Thomas and Officer Smith I announced outloud name after name so there is no mistake and when the names were given along with my request to be transferred to his Human Resource Dept. to verify employment on said persons.... He just quickly stated those persons were all fired yesturday. Hmm... I called him a criminal and his act will be reported to the public and our country's law enforcement officials. I then hungup. ***PLEASE TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW "THE LEGAL DEPT. @ PHONE (347) 467-0385 is conducting a very subspicious and fraudulant business... Any call made to you from this person re: lawsuits, legal matters or any other personal issue DO NOT ACCEPT OR RETURN CALLS DUE TO BOGUS EMPLOYEE NAMES USED TO IDENTIFY it's employees and NATURE OF BUSINESS FOR THEM CALLING YOU. ***
Typical scam that has followed me for literally years. These folks always claim to have some legal authority to collect a debt which I do not owe. They threaten al sorts of action from lawsuits to having police knock on my door with a warrant for my arrest. Often they even claim to be an enforcement branch of the government.
These calls began not long after I applied for and received a payday loan from CashNetUSA about three years ago. They even claimed originally that was the debt that I owed. I had paid that off and called CashNetUSA to investigate why they were attempting to collect this debt again and they told me they weren't but had received similar inquiries from other current and former customers asking the same thing. The assured me they would investigate if customer data was being stolen externally or internally but I never heard back if they met with any success.
ONE THING THESE CALLERS HAVE IN COMMON - ALWAYS, they have heavy foreign accents, usually Asian, and use American sounding generic names such as John Smith, Nancy Johnson, Bob White, etc.
The solution? Learn to identify these callers either by answering and hearing the accent with the American name and a demand for a debt you don't owe, or by letting the call go to voicemail then checking 800notes.com.
I received a subspicious phone message at my place of employment this afternoon starting I needed to return this call right away re: alleged legal matter and the caller identified himself as a Mr. Adam Jackson but, seemed to carry a very thick foreign accent and tossed around a issue that maybe in his mind would give his busniess for his call some kind of green light to skip my voicemail and speak with me directly... no instead his entire number for callback, voice and fraudulent name used in attempt to discuss a personal matter which he claims is valid... handed straght over to the state attorney general office for further investigation. First, let me tell you... if you receive phone calls from individuals stating thier reason for calling is to discuss business of a sensitive nature ie. debtor and the rep. identifies him or herself with an questionable name or in a manner that does not rest well with you're verification methods, you have the right to stat youre ending all further communications with his/her busniess for subspicious circumstances and yes point out there multiple identities, foreign accents and attempts to reach you outside normal channels. Be quick, to the point and always direct them to cease all future calls. If you must continue receiving calls from them... say You do not have to discuss any alledged personal busniess matters or information there of with no one over telephone lines with persons with questionable identities for safety of identity theft. after that being said hangup. If they are who they claim ²º be be assured that they must have other personal information on you and should go about reaching you in a more professional nature and atleast send something to you in the mail first asking you for contact not just make everyone at youre job aware of this business before you are. Get Them... Before They Try To Get You! KEEP IT PUSHIN.
