I have been receiving the same call. India accent with an american name. They have been calling me everyday. Than I received the same call from a different number 508-499-8523. Both of these people are calling me at the same time. They stated that this is a legal matter and there are charges filed against my social security number.
Lisa Brown called from Legal Invetigations Department and said had information regarding my name, address and since I wouldn't call them back or answer when they called, I was going to be dragged to the court house. Anything that happened was my fault. She did wish me good luck and God Bless before she hung up. Another gentleman called from the same number. They are always foreign sounding and there is always a ton of background noise.
This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information from unscrupulous websites like the one you may have filled out an application with, and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.
ABC News released an investigative report on this scam in June. The FTC has indicted one of its ringleaders for criminal fraud:
This is what I did. I went to my local police department and an officer called them and tried to verify information. Since then the calls have stopped. That was on 1/7/2013
