April 26, 2017 - I received a call from Attorney John Anthony this morning on my cell phone and work phone, plus he called my sister. He was very aggressive with me and my sister. I reminded him that if this was a legitimate collection, I would receive a notice through the US postal service. He stated that I was hiding behind that excuse and hung up on me. He was rude to my sister and hung up on her as well. I am sure this is a scam.

This guy called my father and stated I have a warrant out for my arrest. Called my attorney and he did a state wide search and nothing came up. I haven't done anything wrong but when you hear stuff like this you want to check it out. He said there were 3 felony charges. He claimed to be from a company called nationwide. This guy is a Joke and do not return his phone calls.
This is a scam do not give him a dime and he is not even a real attorney.
You aren't hiding behind "that excuse", you're informing him of the law. Which he doesn't want to obey.
And yes, this is a scam. Block the number and tell your sister to do the same.
