My phone caller Id says 323-476-3048, but the person leaving a message says to call 415-200-0265 back regarding a very important issue that if not resolved ASAP will result in legal action. Very heavy accented woman (sounds like from India) who goes by the name Mary Watson does not say what company she is calling from.

I have been recieving multiple calls from 415-200-0265 daily. I was never left a vm until yesterday. A women stated her name was Jennifer (who had a real bad accent)and that I needed to call her back as soon as I get the message and if I did not return the phone call that she could Wish the Best for me as the situation falls upon me.
Well I didn't return the phone and was just explaining the situation to a co-worker. She advised me to look the number up on here. So I did and I read all the posts. Well as I was tellig my co-worker about what i had found I got a phone call transfered to me from another department. I told the caller to call me back on my cell phone.
The caller is named Jacob Morris. He stated that He needed the number for my lawyer asap. I told him I did not have a lawyer and asked him what this was about. He continued to say that because of an outstanding payday loan that I was being charged with Check Fraud, Bank Fraud and another type of fraud. I couldn't under stand him to good. I told him that I did not have any legal proceedings against me. He asked me if I ever had any judgemets against me or have been convicted of a crime. I told him no again. He stated the following.
"Luz ******** all of your court costs and fees for making us find you will add up to $5484.87. This does not include your bail money or lawyer fees. Make sure that when you are arrested tomorrow that you have someone to bail you out."
SInce I knew this was a scam I figured I'd play along. I asked how I can get this resolved. He said that he can get me an "out of court restitution" (I think I spelled that wrong) and that they would only charge me half of all the fines which is $2095.00 and can be payed with a Credit or Debit card. I would avoid Jail Time. The next thing he asked me for was two letters that should be faxed to 714-845-0766. The first letter was to be an apology letter on why I defaulted on my loan, the second was to be a permission letter to use my credit card to take care of this balance. I had to included my social security #, age, phone number, date of birth and address. I would recieve a confrimation number of my payment with in five business days.
After agreeing to all of this Crap...I asked for the phone number and address of his company. He stated that I already had the number which is 941-961-8518 (it was registered in Florida). I said okay and he gave me the following address (which by the way my co-worker was looking on google maps while he was talking) Address = 11846 Website Towers, West Olympic Blvd L.A. Califorina 90066. (It did not register on the map)
At that point I had enough. I stated to him "Okay Your number is coming up as a Florida Number, the Address you have given is not a real address in LA. I know that this is a SCAM and I have contacted the Federal Trade commission. I got hung up on. I quickly dialed the number back (941-961-8518) and it was disconnected. Within less then five seconds the number was DISCONNECTED!!
WARNING THIS IS A SCAM!!
I'm glad I read all of these postings before actually getting a call from them again. My question is...how do they get this information. Is the pay day loan companies selling customer information???
Any way I hope this helps anyone. Thanks and Good Luck!
Today, receive a vm from 415-200-0265 saying I defaulted on a payday loan. When I called number back, it was a fax. I waited 5 minutes, called again & was told a court order would be served to me tomorrow at home & work. Jeffrey Stewart said I agreed to a payday loan in 2008 & defaulted and bank notified CashNet Express I had NSF to pay several times and I would be going to court & jail and I would end up paying 5000-6000 dollars before it was done. He said I owed $1095.37 & then had someone from 941-961-8518 call and say I could settle for $802 with a debit or credit card. I told them I had know idea what they were talking about & to fax me the info. He said they were not authorized to fax me any info so I said I will wait for it before I pay. He hung up. Will be reporting this to the appropriate authorities.
