my husband just got this same call from a man claiming to be attorney Alex Cooper, he was calling from 916-259-9381. my husband first got a disturbing voicemail message from a Hindu sounding woman named "Lisa White" (like that's her real name). She said that they needed my husband to call them immediately to discuss a legal matter. My husband called and another Hindu man named "Alex Cooper" said that he was with the State Attorneys office for the state of California and that my husband was being sued for fraud for taking out a payday loan. He went on to say that the police were going to come to his place of work and arrest him. We did in fact get a pay day loan from a company, however the due date to pay it back isn't for another 3 weeks from now. Between me and my husband calling this "company" trying to get answers, we called them 4 times with us being hung up on by this "Alex Cooper" guy. We went online and looked him up and saw that all of these other people are getting the same kind of calls from all kinds of different numbers. We decided to call this guy one more time. He answered and then proceeded to call my husband a "mother f***er" and a "f****ng loser" and that we can not be calling his number all the time. This is obviously some kind of a scam and I do believe it is a federal crime to impersonate an attorney. I say everyone should call all these different numbers and give this guy a taste of his own medicine.
The person called me 5 times saying it was a legal matter but wouldnt tell me what it was about and that I needed to contact his attorney or they would turn it over to mny local court and I have not done anything wrong and wish they would stop bugging me and they are calling me on my cell. I could hardly understand the guy
I recieved the same call from a forgiener I could not understand him. He said I would be in jail tomorrow and I would lose my job. He sqid the same thing to me as he said them too Alaalfa. But I am not scare.@
I've had several calls myself. This made identified himself as Attorney Alex Cooper, by the way, there is no such atty in California Bar...he stated that within an hour, sheriff's office would be at my place of work to arrest me. I asked for his casenumber. He said, "I am an attorney, I do not have such things." This is criminal. Needs to be stopped.
This have happen to me today and he called my place of employment 16 time and cell 25. I know i have did anything wrong so I told him to call the officer because he just got caught my husband works there as and my mother so he Hung up in my face and wouldn't answer the phone. Have no idea how they have all if my information.
