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.
I just recieved this callas well and whats funny is that they are the same people from a different number. I am sorry but this people have no life and just want to scare everyone and you can report it but I believe that they are using their cell phones and using a phone number duplicator.
OMG, these people need to be stopped!!! What can we do to stop these annoying calls? Please, it is very disturbing and I'm sure there are other people out there like me with health issues and this is not helping at all!! I told them a few months ago to f*** off, and I said a few other select words as to how can they be an attorney here in the U.S. but not speak very good English and that just got the guy all angry and he called me a b****! but it stopped them and now they're calling again, grrrr!!!!!
I recieved a call from a Dan Scott from Johnny best law office saying i had a criminal suit against me for owing excessive money to a sent collector & if i couporated they rush to there boss and stop the suite. I immédiately called my attorney wh said the states attorney office wouldnt call. To Tell them to mail it like everyone else does. When i told him that his tone changed his tone & hadnt realized id 3 way'd my mom who's a légal assistant starter yelling at him saying this is a scam. He tried to over talk her & she repeatew this is a scam. He hung up.
Me too is all that I can say. I am out 300.00 but wiser and know that if ever the words prepaid or Western Union are uttered there is a 99 % chance that criminal activity is involved. Do not feel embarrassed feel empowered and enlightened. Continue to share your story with others because knowledge is power.These people are professional criminals involved in organized crime that prey on the week and financially venerable. Our strength will be this character's downfall. Private collection matters are not criminal nor do they warrant arrest. If anything civil proceedings may be filed, but certainly do not warrant arrest by a sherrif.Knowledge is power.
