I had a similar scam happen to me over a week ago. Got $1800 from me. Had me running around for 4 hours getiing moneygrams and reloadit cards. I was told to stay on the phone the whole time while I drove around everywhere cause this was being recorded. As I got home I called the police, i know people think I am crazy that I feel for this but I am not crazy, was threatened and this guy had a thing to make numbers appear on my cell that were fake, even the police station with a guy saying I better listen to this Sam Wilson or I was in deep trouble. The police took a report and evidence and I called the FL attorney generals office cause this is where he said he was from and sent me e-mails apparently with fake logos, how would I know, so it is through magic jack ViOp's they are doing this so the FL general attorney office called and had it shut off and also the ip address shut down so the computers wouldn't work. I got a call from the same latin lady, left a voice message about me being picked up at home or work and see you in the court house. Who says that. So if u get a number of 714-442-2577 OR 714-485-4655 saying this stuff it is a scam, I would hate for anyone to fall victim to this like I did. these people are tricky so you have to be too and know your facts and don't be scared. I am on disabiity due to a rare autoimmune disease, had to move home due to a domestic violence occurance and had to borrow this money from my mom who is the nicest person, would help anybody and she is a single mom, works full time and is my fulltime caregiver. I feel awful about this and just want to help others not fall victim. Even with the police reports and all my evidence I did not get any money back. F these people.
received pre-recorded message from a woman with a latin accent saying that i would be arrested. i asked her what this was for and i will give this information to my attorney and she hung up. called back and a james answered and i again asked him what this is for and when i told him i have an attorney he wouldn't give me any information and said this would be forwarded to the d.a office i asked him what state and he wouldn't answer me and hung up!!! annoying but fake!!
I just recieved the same call described by others here as well, saying I was being sued and would be arrested at my residence or work. Glad to know I'm not the only person they've called with this hoax!!
Thanks for posting this info.
Got the same call. I know the person who serves papers for court and they don't call you first and when you are going to get arrested that is crazy to let someone know so they can run away. Boy people have nothing else to do but play with poor people s mind s that don't know better.
11:05am Received this voicemail: We have received a legal claim against you and for that reason you will be arrested at your legal residents or place of work. For more information, you can contact me at 7144854655.
