Who called from 4089155242

On Monday, October 27, 2014, at 2:03pm, we received  a call from Jenny Scott from the Oakwood Law Group (I think this is correct as I couldn't really understand the name of the law firm).  Her message:  "got a complaint about your name and socials - arrest warrant has been issued on your name.  If you do not call back by the end of the day, warrant will be issued and processed without further notice.  The call back number is 408-915-5242."

The call originated from 913-555-0173 in Kansas City KS.  The call back number is from Campbell CA.

I did not speak to her as we do not answer phone calls with unfamiliar numbers - just listened to her message.

Haha!! Hey Michelle... What's ur address?? We would like to inform the FTC about ur whereabouts! Thanks!

Its not unusual for Extortion Scammers to use real legal company's names and even real attorney's names. In this case, they are using and abusing  real company's which happen to be either personal injury attorneys, patent attorney's in different states. There is one collection out of Texas, it goes by Oakwood Collections Lawyers though.  Not Oakwood law Group.  I also found another reference here under Oakwood Law Firm along with other names given when pressed :

Wow...you guys are incredible...im not a scammer...i was scammed...i was refused any information regarding the court information...and i would be happy to give all my contact information to anyone that wants to find out how dumb they look for attacking a person reaching out for help.

....we are incredible - incredibly good at catching shills!

If you were indeed scammed, then you would have the court information - because your bank would have to have this documentation BEFORE they could deduct anything from your account!  And that documentation would give the company name and address.
