I received the same call and the girl named Taylor Lakes said she was from the Legal Research Group and that I had passed the NCIC background check and have no felonies so that woud be considered in my case. The B... also said I had until 4:30 today to send the money via moneygram or pay online to some place or the police will be picking me up. This is the second time someone has tried to get me, last year it was a guy and I got the police involved and never heard from him again, now this so I told her to do whatever she felt was necessary and I hung up. It's sad that there is nothing you can about these kind of people trying to scam you out of money, I feel for the elderly people who may have fallen for this kind of crap.
I just got a call stating almost the same thing today. I haven't talked to him in 13 years and he doesn't have my new cell number that I know of. They said they were trying to keep him out of jail and I was his emergency contact.
same as above, got a call from girl named Chelsy. Said my brother had 2 outstanding warrants and police were going to pick him up today unless he got a hold of them. Thank goodness for these blogs to see they are nothing but scammers.
My mother and father-in-law received the first phone call from 855-791-9102 from a gentleman with a heavy accent asking if they knew me. The man said he was calling from an ïnvestigation agency and needed to get in touch with me. I reported the number to the FTC fraud online investigation and didnt think twice of it. On May 24th, someone called from 469-513-9094 saying that they were "trying to keep me out of jail" and that they needed to find me. My in-laws were frightened and let me know about the call today. After researching both phone numbers, I am somewhat convinced that this is a scam. I did leave a voicemail message for a John Warren at the 469 number to return my call and I will try to update this post if I hear anything back from the number.
