This is a harrassment phony bill collector. Called me several times threatening to take me to court over $700...um yeah it would cost them more to file and take me to court then what I owe! What a crock they just want to see how scared they can make you so you will pay their sorry a@#@# something!
Don't fall for it HANG UP AND TELL THEM YOU ARE REPORTING THEM TO THE FBI AND TO CA ATTORNEY GENERAL...
This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information from unscrupulous websites like the one you may have filled out an application with, and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.
ABC News released an investigative report on this scam in June. The FTC has indicted one of its ringleaders for criminal fraud:
Really???? A foreign guy named James Anderson!!!!! And says he's with the FBI and a lawsuit is being filed against me. Come on people....how would you feel if I tried to steal your darned identity!!!!! These foreigners calling constantly really needs to stop!!!! Not just from this number but from EVERY number that was outsourced!!!!
Oh forgot....once I didn't answer call on my personal cell phone...he left message then called my work number!!!! How the heck did they get that? To beat all, I told him that he was calling a government number & it could be traced because I was reporting it to my manager.
I've gotten four more calls since my last post on here. The calls are getting more intense today the same dock called me telling me he was Officer Jackson. He said I took out a loan for $2600 And I did not pay it back then at the end of the call he said that I took out a loan for $400 and I needed to pay it back. He said that if I did not make the payment in two days I would go to jail. I called my local police and file the report against this this isn't the only case that they've had. Anyone who gets a call from this number or the other 646 number should file a police report! These are magicJack numbers located out of California I work for a phone company so I have access to records like that! I've turned over the address the name on the file and everything listed for that phone number to my Police Department!
This guy, first Jack Clarke then James Anderson, has been calling me for weeks. He leaves threatening voice messages stating ill be taken to jail if i dont pay. I can barely understand anything in the message since he has a thick middle eastern accent. I have reported him to my police department and will be filing a police report after work. Im doing research on the phone company and will be filing a civil suit. A lack of regulation on things like this is the reason horrid eventslike 9/11 take place. I want this guy taken down!!!
