I haave been receiving phone calls from this number for about a week. I can barely understand the caller for his thick accent. There is a ton of noise in the back round. He proceeds to tell me that myself or my atty must call. "VERY time sensitive." That if I don't call back "he can't help what will befall you". He ends the call by wishing me "Good Luck" if i don't respond.
I can't believe these people.
1st off, these calls aren't originating in the USA so the phone # means nothing. The number is being spoofed. These means they use a computer program to mask their number and make it look like it is coming from another number. We used to do this at my last job just for fun in the office. On April Fools one year, we called the boss and had a number on there for the IRS but my coworker was calling from his own desk phone. The way I handle them is to wait until they leave a voicemail where they have crossed the line. Then and only then do I contact them. At that time I let them know, the debt, which is never valid, is not valid and they have violated the Fair Debt Collections Act. Their call will cease or I will file charges with the local sheriffs office and hand over the voicemail along with a call record. If they call again, answer tell them you are tracing the call, hang up, dial *57 on your phone. This will automatically trace the call and the system will make you through steps to press charges against the person or company for harassment.
I got this number while working at a call center. He was not professional and there was much laughter in the background. When I explained where I worked he wanted to know how old I was! report this number if you can, probably scammers.
Had a call from 408-624-1166. Left a very threatening message. The man named "chad" had a very thick accent. Lots of background noise when I called back. I have called back many times with my number blocked. They will begin to cuss at you, use a different language and also begin having an answering machine pick up the calls. I call several times a day just to annoy them because what they are doing is ILLEGAL & THREATENING & WRONG.... THIS IS A SCAM. Within in a month, the number will be disconnected. DO NOT RESPOND to their threats, DO NOT GIVE any money or personal information to them. Report them to your state's attorney general office.
I got this stupid phone call said I'm gonna get arrested if I don't have an attorney and said is a frauds from whatever I did cuz I couldn't understand what the hell those Indian people were talking about. So I would like to not ever getting all this stupid calls on my cell and my work.
