Albiet mby many different names I have been getting calls from these gys for almos a two weeks, I have yet to talk to them since they call my home pphone while I am at work. The bottom line is that two weeks ago they said in two days they would turn me ove to the police and I would be in jail. and loose my job and benefits. It is a scam I know Florida Law I happened to work in Law Enforcement for 16 years. I have already turned them into the state attorney's office as well as added the # to the florida do dnot call registry.
This person with an accent called my place of employment today 09/11/13. . They told me that I had taken out a cash advance loan. I asked when and with what company? He said he didn't have the exact name because they own several companies. I said what date and how much. The man told me back in April or May. I was driving home and pulled over. I told him I never got any money, but I'll check my bank statements. I looked all the way back to 11-01-12. That's when I decided to Google the number. This person was very threatening saying he was going to report me to the police for check fraud. I've never even had a parking ticket. If he calls at work again I'm telling him I informed the police about this hoax..
Had a call from unknown # on cell phone foreign accent person stated that a warrwnt was issued for my arrest no other details said I had to call 412 342 5993 to halt any legal action. I did not get a reason for the arrest warren just that i had to call within 30 minutes to halt the warrent. I have had these scam calls before they always wanted some money from a green card where you give them the card number and they dsappear. I have a lawyer to contact to keep tings on the up and up
Had the same basic experience as others who have reported this number. Very rude and nasty guy. Started in with the "criminal investigation" and "financial crimes" unit, had last 4 of my SS#, could find me on facebook (not really, I'm not on facebook).
Somebody should tell these guys that owing money on a loan is a civil, not a criminal matter in the good old USofA. Debtors prison was abolished like 200 years ago. The tipoff was that they had basic public information, when you get down to it, and none of the information that a true investigator or even a legitimate debt collector would have. Refused to give an address, email, website or anything where someone could check. Getting any of this would "impossible!" Why impossible if they're legit?
Oh, and of course, they needed a credit card numer right away, to "take care of this." Problem is, I think they are hooked into some kind of real financial info database where they can get just enough information to fool the fearful or unwary. Don't be either. They're crooks.
I just got called on both my work and cell phone it came up as 266-9666 said he was from the financial criminal invetigations depart said the same thing as in a previous post.. His name was James Winston
"A person called from this #. I could not understand his name clearly as he spoke with an accent and he stated that he was from Financial Clients from the Investigations Department. He stated that I needed to return his call due to some information that is linked to my social security number, mailing address, and email address"
