Who called from 4042870204

ok .. just got off the phone with illiterate edward lumus .. when i told him i was contacting the fbi he hung up on me .. wonderful business skills he has there .. didnt even ask me for my addy or phone number .. anyways .. got off phone with him .. called the local fbi .. i was then instructed to call the magistrates office in atlanta georgia as that is where the number is originating from soooooooo off to make some more phone calls ...

ANYONE WHOM THIS IDIOT IS TRYING TO SCAM (and the fbi confirmed it was a scam) call the magistrates office in atlanta and report him

Good job, Deb. As you probably read earlier in this thread, these crooks are based in Buffalo, NY, but most of their calls are routed through other phone numbers in other states, including Georgia. Bud Hibbs has all the dirt on these crooks; in case you haven't seen Bud's report, here it is:  http://www.budhibbs.com/debtcollectorpages/cmc_recovery.htm  Here's a partial list of phony names they use plus an address:

RSI Investigative Services
RSI Claims Processing Services, LLC
CMC Recovery
Claims America
Emanee Development Inc
Murray, Bradshaw & Associates, Attorneys at Law

3385 Bailey Ave., Suite #8
Buffalo, NY 14215

GEORGIA-ROUTED PHONE NUMBERS:
***404-287-0204*** & 404-492-7970
FAX: 404-592-0173

(Here's the link for reports on the other Georgia phone numbers: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-404-492-7970 )

In addition to the FBI and the Atlanta magistrate, I suggest you also email your information to Sid Barret; he's a Georgia assistant attorney general who, from what I can gather on Google, handles many consumer fraud cases. I saw his contact information mentioned on another 800Notes thread regarding a similar debt collection scam. Here's his contact information:

Sid Barrett
Senior Assistant Attorney General
Office of the Georgia Attorney General
40 Capitol Square, S.W.
Atlanta, GA 30334-3202
Phone: 404-656-3202
Fax: 404-656-0677
[email protected]

If you contact Sid, you may also want to include the link to this thread so he can see the pattern of illegal behavior.

Also, you may want to give a heads-up to the New York attorney general:

Keep up the heat, Deb!  :)

Hi, I have a really good one for you and if it didn't happen to me I would not believe it either.  I get messages on my answering machine from these morons.  They are looking for someone whom I don't know and never heard of.  I have returned their call, thinking that they were legit, and ask them to take me off their list.  Days later, I get the same messages again.  I call them back, they apologized and Mr. Lumus said he would take my number off their list.  They do hang up on you, and are very rude individuals.  After having a really sh**ty day on Friday, I have a message from Mr.Lumus telling me that he is looking for that person and has an arrest warrant out for them.  I called Mr. Lumus this morning and told him that I had called on several occasions and requested to be taken off their calling list, blah, blah, blah.  He hung up on me.  I really tried of these people.  I want their a*s on a silver platter.  I feel really stupid, but thanks to a good friend who showed me this website, I'm not stupid, just someone who pays her bills on time and really can't stand people like these idiots who couldn't stick their finger up their butt with both hands, unless it was a drug!

If you want to have some fun, report these ridiculous grifters to all of these law enforcement agencies:

1) The FBI at http://tips.fbi.gov

2) Sid Barrett, Senior Assistant Georgia Attorney General at [email protected] or 404-656-3202

3) New York Attorney General at http://www.oag.state.ny.us/complaints/complaints.html or 800-771-7755

4) Your state's attorney general, the contact information for whom is at www.naag.gov

5) The Federal Trade Commission at https://rn.ftc.gov/pls/dod/wsolcq$.startup?Z_ORG_CODE=PU01

Have fun tweaking "Mr. Lumus"!

A Special Investigator Barbara Perusy called and left a message saying someone had siled a civil complaint and left a file number and a phone number to call.  I tried to call the number and it had been disconnected.
The number she left was 678-392-1160
