Same thing for me except it was thomas gibson. And the charges were fraud with malicious intent. For a loan of 350 which grew to 780 and now wanted 1500.
My calls started coming to me on 3/9/2015. They started from quite a few different #'s in Ohio. I never picked up, so I have kept them all. I received 16 calls from the Ohio # and today I got a call from this Omaha, NE #, but it was the exact same voice and message as all of the other calls from Ohio. The phrase that is so funny is, "Govern yourself accordingly." I have never heard anyone talk like that. As you listen to all of the messages, they never say anything specific to incriminate themselves. You don't find out what company they are calling from or exactly why, but yet it is urgent that I call back immediately. It was urgent in March, April and May! Sometimes it's the same exact "voice", but she leaves a different name. The names being used are: Megan Byrd, Rebecca Outlaw, Jennifer Page, Martha Schaefer.
All I can think is that they must be making some really good money doing this or they wouldn't keep calling me!!
SCAM ALERT!
I received a call today from a very hostile person stating I had committed a felony by opening a Pay Day Loan and not repaying it, and/or using false bank account information to apply for the loan. The representative recited my old address (I haven't lived there in 6+ years), she quoted the last 4 digits of my SS number, and gave me the email address they had on file. I asked if she could send me legal documents showing the complaint and charges -- she stated correspondence had already been sent to my physical and email address. I told her the physical address on file was incorrect and that I hadn't received anything via email pertaining to this charge. She said it doesn't matter anymore, the only two things she wanted to hear from me was that I would claim responsibility for this or I would be obtaining a lawyer and defending myself in court. I told her I didn't want to make any decision until I saw the charges and information in its entirety. She hung up on me.
I called back immediately to get more information. After a quick shouting match (she was very rude and hostile, lol), I asked who was making this claim; she said, "United First Federal Bank". She told me they have a cease and desist order against me so I am not allowed to contact them (I searched online and couldn't find that "bank"). She mentioned again that I should contact a criminal lawyer right away because I would be arrested soon. She was "putting in an order to revoke my driver's license" and the arresting officer would be at my doorstep or my place of employment within in 24hrs. She ended the call with some kind of tag line "lawyer up and good luck" or something. Sure...
I'm guessing if I had chosen the first option (claim responsibility), she would have asked for my CC or bank info.
I received the exact same phone call. Even went to my bank and they investigated it. Of course nothing was found, next went to the police department and they had me google this number it's all fraud
