To report Extortion Scam Operations, file reports with the FBI, your state attorney general and Department Of Justice,CFB,FTC & FCC..
I've been receiving these calls from several different numbers today claiming that my long dead grandmother was going to be arrested for some debt or another. I called the numbers back, though it smelled like a big ol scam, and they claimed to be working for Capital One.
When I called Capital One, however, there was no record of my Grandmother having an account with them. They do not work with any company called "O'Connell, Greenman and Associates", and none of the phone numbers are in any way associated with their company.
When the next call came, I called them back and talked with the woman on the other line who swore up and down that this wasn't a scam, but wouldn't give any information to back up her company's legitimacy. I imagine these people on the phone genuinely have no idea that they're working for a scam company.
O'connell, greenman associates have been harrassing me this week.I decided to return their after telling me they had ss for fraudulent behavior with my ss. I asked to have papers that I supposedly owed. They couldn't do it. They said they would email a vop. I did not open it because it said I needed read and sign.
You can not talk with these dummies. They hung up on me 7 times at least. They yelled and asked" what do I want?"
Then I received an email that I had been" served" via email. I was ttold that I had until 2pm the next to pay up which I ignored.
I am a widow on fixed income,disability included. I am presently in rehab from my 5th surgery on the same knee. I have disputed this loan, whuch is why I have asked for papers that I supposedly signed. Never have received anything confirming this. I am told it was in May 2009.
These people here are plainly ignorant.
Since you did receive something from them, do you have a name, address, and phone number? Check out the forum on this site & you will see copies of letters you can mail to them. Send it certified mail, with proof of delivery. In the letter TELL them you dispute this loan & send proof, or cease & desist. Also, 2009 is 5 years ago. This loan may be State barred for collection. Do a web search on your State for Statute of Limitations on debt. Last word - You CANNOT be 'served' by email.
I had Greenman and Associates call me about an old pay day loan threatening to serve with papers, but they can't validate the depth. They could only provide me with an email of the amount they wanted me to pay. They first called me from Chicago and when I told them I had searched this number and had fraud reports they started to call me from a 214 number. Can they really come to my job to serve me? I called my county and the gentleman told me it sounded like someone was trying to collect a dept. If someone is going to serve you they don't call to tell you.
