They called me on Friday saying that I was being arrested for non-payment of a payday loan I never received. I had my mother call back to get some information for our attorney, they could not provide any information to her and they were very rude. Called my local courthouse and they had no record of any arrest warrants, so I called this "company" back and requested my case numbers and he told me to have my lawyer call back and speak with them. This is definitely a SCAM!!!!!!!
These people call and left a massage on my job voice mail. Saying they are from law Enforcement and what give any Information about this call. Please do something about this.
The told me they were a Law Office and I was involved in a "criminal lawsuit." When I finally got to the nitty gritty of it, apparently it was about some supposedly bill collector account of mine from the past that was "lost and/or stolen" that they had. When I asked for proof, they hung up. Tried to call back and they made some excuse that I was not the person they wanted and then hung up on me again. My suggestion when they try this scare tactic again, ask for the proof to be sent to you and see what happens. Then tell them you are recording them and that you will let your attorney know about their tactics to collect on a debt that was "written off." If anyone can get the company's name, please post so I can let my attorney know.
Received a nasty message from this number....Name given was Mark Slater....and I was pretty much treatened to either return the call or have my attorney call back....He said if I didnt call back that whatever unfolded would be my problem....and he also ended the call with Goodbye and Goodluck!!!!!
I also received a message saying this exact stuff specified as the other complaints. When I called back I said I will not be threatened and they hung up. I then called back and asked to speak to a supervisor and they again hung up. Just ignore them. Im calling my phone company to have them blocked today. Its ridiculous, but yes this is an illegal form of collecting a debt.
