I have received the same calls on periodically on my cell and work numbers. This is clearly a scam; after I threat to call the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) the calls stop for awhile. Several names have been used by a male with a HEAVY foreign accent, by the name of Eric Johnson or John Harris. The same threat of a law suit and sending the sheriff to my place of work. Please do not give this or any person your information. if you have a specific department/unit at your work that handle your telephone service, please it report it to them also, especially if you are in a Government agency.
i have been getting calls from 408716188 off and on all day im from arkansas the man claims i m be locked up tomorrow do to fraud charges i called there local police dept im taking it up with my local police dept here in arkansas to find out who this man is he wants money from me its a scam
omg! i just called from them too on my work phone number...from phone #408716188 his name is Jack Thompson, whats funny is i cant understand a darn thing he says..this definitely a scam, for a fact i havent done anything.
I just got a call from this number and said his name was RONNIE COOPER, couldn't speak clear English and his name is in no way Ronnie Cooper, claimed to be a attorney and read an affidavit. He told me not to interrupt him and when i did and said give me the name of the company he was saying was pressing charges against me and why didn't i receive anything in the mail, he started yelling at me and saying well the sheriff is going to show up at your work tomorrow, only thing is if he was a legit company he would know that my work doesn't have an office in my city, lol its a freaking scam. block the number and ignore, do not get scared, they got my information from a payday loan i got a while ago. Just because they confirm they have your social ignore them. TOTAL SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PEOPLE, this sounds like the typical payday loan scam that sweeping the country. Tell them what you think of the procedures they use and see what kind of response you get
