I received a call from another phone number asking for some unknown individual to call back to this number. The person on the call had a thick Middle Eastern accent and called himself "James Oscar". He said the person, or an attorney, should call back imeedicately "or else". Sounds like a phony call to me. I didn't call it back.
Yes! i've been receiving them over the past several months and have even tried calling back to tell them the person they are trying to reach doesn't work at this number. I've had them identify themselves as James Brown ....
Yes finally someone else feels my pain phone number 718.841.6490 calls me ten times a day and they are threatening calls from same person always a different name advising I need to call back asap and they wish me well if I don't the guy has a very strong accent I don't know what else to do or how to stop this or even how they got my information any suggestions?????
These calls can sometimes be linked to payday loan applications you make online. When they call, they have all your information, so it sounds like a collection agency. However, do not give out any information. If they have a legitimate debt, they can give you the name of the creditor and information about the account. If they cannot, DO NOT give them personal information or agree to send money. Most of the time the frauds want you to wire them money or give them permission to debit your bank account to satisfy a debt that they threaten you about. Ask for the information in writing about the debt. If they won't give it to you, tell them you are calling the police and hang up.
