Got a call at 6:30 am (pst). Only the phone number now ends in 7616 and the company name on the caller ID is showing as LIG Corporation. I told the woman the person she was looking for was not here and I hung up. Now I am seeing these comments and am adding mine. There are a lot of these scams going around right now. Some calling to say there is a legal action being filed and they are sending someone over to serve you. I know debt collectors are not supposed to call before 8:00 in the morning or after 9:00 in the evening. You'd think people would just get a legit job instead of scamming people. So obnoxious.
Karly James calls and claims to be from IFG of Atlanta. Said she had all my information (social security #, bank account information, etc) and in order to continue I needed to give her the last 4 of my social. I refused and told her that I don't know her, she threaten and said it was a debt collection call. She told me that if I didn't give her the last four of my social that she was going to get the judge to sign the warrant and arrest me. I told her that this seems like a matter for my lawyer now, can I have your bosses name, she hung up. Called me again the next day.
I receieve phone call at work from a women who claims she was going to issue warrant and have someone come to my job to arrest me. However, if that was the case she would have something in written format and sent to me first. These types of calls should stop especially when you target old people.
I received a call from the above number also. I know I don't owe anyone and I found it hard to believe why I never received anything in writing they have my phone number. Thanks to the previous post for information regarding the bogus calls. She couldn't tell me anything until I provided the last 4 of my social. My response was then sue me.
The company is not a legit business. They have tons of complaints against them, they are not members of the better business bureau, and change their name every 6 months or so to avoid being found by authorities. It's a scam and they are in violation of so many laws and credit regulations it's not even funny.
Do not answer their calls, contact an attorney and let's shut this down.
