Got a phone call from this number said i had criminal charges against me because i applied for a loan was approved and never accepted the loan or the fee to get the loan. Said i could cancel the loan for a fee! Scam!
I got a call from this Missouri (660-677-4736) number yesterday and today. This man had a thick accent. I could not tell if he was saying Adam or Alvin Smith very rude. I have never received a called like this in my life!!! I asked who he was and how I could owe money. He would not give me any information as to why he was calling. I was told that I should have cancelled my commitment with the loan agency. I am disabled and would have never been in trouble with the law so why would I be arrested. I called my local police department and learned this was a scam!! All I have to say is I hope this person is caught soon as possible!!! All I thought about is how he wished me good luck...Well good luck in jail when they finally catch up to you harassing people!!!!
This number has called me many times at work and on my cell, they are rude as hell! When I stated that sure I will pay you to try to get more information the lady said "never call here... can't you understand English?" I understand English just fine they just cant speak it very well. I asked them to send me information via email with documents and the documents that were sent looked like a 10 year old created them. No doubt a scam, how do people get away with this s**t?

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.
ABC News released an investigative report on this scam a year ago:
