I have been receiving very threatening and nasty phone calls from this number, I was advised by an attorney to request written proof of the claimed debt and he claimed he could not!!! I don't know how they received my info and social security number. I was told to pay now or they would go tell my employer, haha... I am self employed, and even made a comment about sending authorities and court stuff to my business door. Then in a barely understandable mid-eastern accent made a comment about my children being at risk. If you find out who this is I want them gone!!!!

Today I received a call from 408-459-2291, a company called American Legal Service. He had a very thick foreign accent, he is from India and left a message saying I had a case against me. This CLEARLY is fraud. If there was a real case, i would've gotten some paperwork, not a call from some person i can barely understand. Other websites say this company will say u have a case using the last 4 of your SSN, then try to EXTORT MONEY from you!
I am reporting this number to the:
National Fraud Information Center
1-800-876-7060
If u get a call from this number, please do the same. I am SOOOOO sick of these Indian People taking advantage of people who don't know any better.
THIS IS A SCAM. Scammers pretend to be law enforcement (police, sheriff, Feds, AG's Office, fake cop agencies with made-up names) and using bought/hacked loan application data to extort money for fictitious crimes or your personal ID.
