got this call twice today, didn't know whose number it was. just looked it up because I was curious. the number DOES NOT show up when my phone rings, the caller space is blank.
Just got a call from this number too. No one there when I answered. Called it back and was asked for my pin number. F@#%ing prick woke me up at 7AM on a Sunday morning. I filed a report with the police department and will be contacting the Attorney General first thing Monday morning.
This # is associated with an ongoing payday loan scam located in india...(look up 202 629 9693 for more info ) they will call say they are with a loan company and u will go to jail if you do not pay this loan ....I have been dealing with this for 2 mos now DO NOT give them info or verify any info plz contact ur local DA, the FBI secret service and homeland security for any1 that is thinking this is real plz read this before you give any info What a debt collector CANNOT do:
* Use deceptive practices. For example, threaten you with arrest or trick you into paying for collection calls.
* Use obscene language.
* Call you at work after you tell them that your boss does not approve these calls.
* Deny you the right to receive a written notice (within five days after your first phone conversation) that would tell you how much you owe and the name of the creditor that says you owe the money. If you do not receive the notice within five days, call the collection agency and ask for its address and fax number. Then, send a letter to the collector noting its failure to send you the required notice. As a minimum, make a note in your file.
* Refuse to give its name and the name of the collection company when asked.
* Put a debt on your credit report if you file a dispute. It must validate the debt by obtaining a verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment from the creditor before continuing their collection efforts. The results of the investigation must be mailed to you.
