I received this same call at work and on ny cell. He said that he will be dropping papers off to the police and they will be issuing a warrant for my arrest and they will arrest me at my job.
This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information from unscrupulous websites like the one you may have filled out an application with, and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.
ABC News released an investigative report on this scam a year ago:
I recieve these calls as well. I asked him what company he is attempting to collect a debt for-- I had to argue to get this information from him and then he said CashNetUSA. I said I would call them directly to find out more information. When I did so I had no debt with them.
I reccommend going this route. Don't give them any information. It is a SCAM and what they are doing is illegal.
i got the same call at my place of work on a Saturday and its a scam he said that a warrant for my arrest will be issued on Monday and the police will take me to the courthouse and do 6 months in jail
