To report Extortion Scam Operations, file reports with the FBI, your state attorney general and Department Of Justice,CFB,FTC & FCC..
Ignore them. Total scam. Don't pay them anything. Ignore them. You cannot be arrested for ordinary civil debt. These people are just trying to scare you into paying them something.
Fraudulent or Zombie Debt Collectors—Things to Know
If you have received a call stating:
1. You have defrauded a financial institution
2. You owe an unpaid payday loan
3. You have a warrant due to an unpaid loan
5. You will receive a court summons
6. Authorities are coming to arrest you
7. Anything similar to above,
a. Do not give them any information or verify any information for them
b. Tell them you know they are a scam operating illegally and that you are filing a complaint with the appropriate authorities
* File a complaint with the FBI on their Internet Crime webpage http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
* File a complaint with the Attorney General for the state you live in
The more information and complaints there are, the better the chance of getting these criminals to stop (or at least reduce the frequency). [abstracted from another site]
They continue to bother you, tell them you are going to the police to make a complaint of extortion.
I just received a call from them talking about a payday loan, when i called back the lady answering the phone was so stupid, when i asked for address info she began to stutter.
These people seem to have gotten my family mistaken with another group. I just got hung up on three times by three different people there trying to get it straightened out. They were reluctant even to tell me the name of their company. I can't find anything on the internet about this company other than these griping posts. With what government entity can we file reports to get them shut down?
They call themselves O'Connell, Greenman & Associates but I can't find any company by that name. I don'r know who these people are or where they hang out. I'm sure they are not a legal organization, I think they are just a group of con-artists working out of a rented house or back room of a commercial building.
But report them anyway:
* File a complaint with the FBI on their Internet Crime webpage http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
* File a complaint with the Attorney General for the state you live in
The more information and complaints there are, the better the chance of getting these criminals to stop (or at least reduce the frequency).
They continue to bother you, tell them you are going to the police to make a complaint of extortion. Tell them loudly and that you KNOW this is a scam.
