Received this call from this person yesterday I started freaking out and we'll let's just say he almost got me but I'm trained in fraud at work so didn't sound right once he said I need to pay him 465 it will all go away. I was like I have to contact my lawyer he called back today and I haven't checked the voicemail. I need report it.
This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.
