i have received that same call. saying i owed a loan and there were three charges against me. he said if i did'nt take care of this i would go to jail. he also called my place of employment and left a voice mail on my bosses phone so now everyone at work thinks i'm a criminal i reported it to local police and attorney general office and the tade comission. also closed out all accounts. put a fraud alert on credit report
I to recieved a call from this number from an officer Jake Dawson I knew that it was a scam when he said that there were charges filed against me and that the police would be out to get me and hold me before I go in front of a judge but that He could make it all go away if I agreed to the charges and wired him the 1800.00 to close my case. So I told him that I was going to contact my attorney to see if this was the way to go about it. And that I wasn't paying them anything until I had legal council. He got angry and said that there was no time and that I should be prepared to go to jail. I knew that it was a scam sometimes its just fun messing with these guys. Always remember if it sounds fishy to you go with those gut feelings.
I received a message from this number on my cell phone, this man claim to be from the Feferal Trade Commission, he goes by the name of officer Jake Dawson, left a message stating that I have at least 3 allegations against me with my name and social security number, and that I am the main prospect for the these allegations, and I should call them back to resolve this matter, if I did not it would be out out their hands and it is all up to me. I did not call them back because a few months ago I was scam out of $500 dollars and this man sounded like the same people who scammed me before. This is about the second time i got calls from these people with this heavy indian accent trying to scam me out of some more money, since i have been scammed the first time. Don't answer these people they are all scammers.
Just got a call from my sister who stated that she and my step mom both received a call from a Robert Wilson with the "Federal Tax Lien Division" saying that I had listed them as a reference (false). Robert also left a voicemail on my office line stating that that there was a pending case against me and to contact them by Friday otherwise it will be forwarded to the local district attorney. I could be wrong but isn't it HIGHLY illegal to impersonate any persons in law force and especially a federal entity? There was no mention of who EXACTLY he was calling on behalf of other than to say "cases have been reported against you".
I know what is on my credit report and have completed certified mailings requesting the truth of any debts therein.
I also contacted the IRS directly and they reported that there is NO such action against me.
REPORT THEM!
