Officer Black, Robinson, and cohorts have been harassing me for almost four months. Their "sales pitch" is that a friend used my name/SS# as a guarantor for a loan, and he/she is now being investigated for fraud. They go on to say that, in order to waive my association, I need to contact Of. Black ASAP.
The callers are of Indian/Asian origin with thick accents (Black's is actually not that bad) and are definitely using a canned speech, as well as some fear tactics. They have used numerous phone numbers (Maryland, Georgia, California), and are very persistent...to the point I've been called three times in a row when ignoring their call or when even answering and saying, "Thanks, but no thanks."
All I can say about Of. Black and his henchmen: SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! SCAM!
This are scammers..and i been getting these harassing calls also. Saying that if i will not contact them back they feel sorry for me and i will be in big trouble if i dont call them back or pay. I have never used a payday loan. They are illegal in north carolina so i know for a fact they are fake.
Hey "officer John Fiitzpatrick, California" you are one of the troll scammers trying to make yourself look legitimate with a fake post! You don't write english any better than you speak it! To anyhone doing a search on this number - these people are scam artists who have stolen your information and are trying to extort money from you. If you get a call form a middle eastern person with an americanized name saying you owe on a bad check or a loan - but they refuse to provide details or anyhting in writing - you can be sure it is a scam. If you google the company they say you owe you will either find a phoney website - or if it is a real company they will have no record of you. These people will call your work, family and friends - it is all part of thier scam to try to scare you into paying. do not give them any money or confirm any of the information they have. Notify your state attorney general and file a complaint on www.ic3.gov. Good luck - these people have been bugging me since Feb - always call form different numbers using different names - but same crackpot story - Good Luck!
got a call from this # saying that the caller was Chris Robinson, from the FBI. He said that he was coming to get me and my daughter. He had a middle eastern accent and was very threatening. The # is (408) 940-9489 from the South SAn Francisco Bay Area. THIS IS A SCAM. I HAVE TURNED IT OVER TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
