I had recieved something similar this one by the name of Calvin Collins and apparently I found out that he was pretending to be a client for ACE Cash Checking.. Please make sure that you do your research before paying anything to anyone and also don't sign anything either. I found out that these are scam artist with the same Middle Eastern background.
I got a call today from a James Davis. He stated that he is a trial attorney working for The "American Law offices" in California. Yet the number (520) 336-9109 is from Tucson, AZ. He gave me his attorney registration number as 020078. This number belongs to ( http://members.calbar.ca.gov/search/member_detail.aspx?x=20078 )
I caledl the Federal trade commission and filed a complaint (http://www.ftc.gov/ftc/contact.shtm)
I suggest anyone getting a call from this number call the FTC also.....
If the person/company who actually is making these calls reads this.....DROP DEAD.....
Every one needs to report calls like this to the Attorney General's Office. Make notes of when they call and what they say or better yet record the call onto tape or CD if you can so you can submit with your report. They will also say they are from the Dept of Finical Investigations (no such place) and claim to be Officer So & So (yea right! I can say the same thing, that doesn't make it true!). They will say your Social Security # is on hold (can't be done), you're being investigated for an online loan you received (I applied but never received or accepted loan), your address is being investigated (for what?), and someone will be coming to my house (come on over! No one shows up). I told one caller I was reporting him and he is a scammer and he said "No you scammer!" I laughed and hung up.
Also report it to all 3 credit reporting companies for ID theft/fraud since they do have your info. What ever you do DO NOT give them permission to withdraw any money from your account. They may have your routing and account numbers but they can't withdraw without your permission. If they do that's when they can be tracked and charged with fraud and theft so they won't do anything without your permission. If you do give permission they have won and you are screwed.
I no longer answer my phone to numbers I am not familiar with. I let them leave a message and they sometimes do. Since I get a wide range of these numbers as well as 'private' or 'unknown' (they're trying to block their number) they change their numbers, possibly throw away cell phones. What ever area code comes up may not be where they are at due to electronic technology routing and the throw away cell phones.
United we stand divided we fall. Everyone report these callers with as much info as you can and we can stop them. Do nothing and they will continue harassing us!
