THIS IS A SCAM. Scammers are using bought/hacked loan application data to extort payments for fictitious debts from victims and victims' families and friends.

This is a scam. If you owe debt, you can be sued in civil court but you will not be arrested because arrest is reserved for severe crimes like robbery, not for owing debt. This is a well known scam. Do not give any info or money. Get a whistle or air horn and blow their ears off.
Received calls at work and home phone. Was called on a Friday and told I had to go to court on Monday, what court I asked? Answer- your local court. What court room? Answer- I don't know Who do I owe? Answer- I don't know, you have to go to your local court. Finally as asked for documentation and was told it would be sent. As of this day 3/16/11, no documents received.
Just received a call from this number both at my office & on my cell phone. The message left on my cell was from a Moses Matthew & he wished me luck with the situation as it unfolds if I chose to ignore this phone call. But he suggested I call him back NOW. I don't think so.
