A So called man from the Department of bureau of Criminal Investigations called me toda by the name of Michael black and told me I had to put my money on a moneypak card but little did he know I was cover by bankruptcy protection. He wasn't trying to hear that. he told me I had 30 minutes to get a moneypak card and put the money on it and he needed to stay on the phone while I do it and if I didn't do it I would be arrested in 30 minutes at my home or place of employment.... what if I get away with this type of thing? I called my attorney and he told me it was a scam and don't worry about it cause that's not the way that you do business
It is a scam. First of all, debt is civil, not criminal, so no one is going to be arrested. Secondly, no legitimate law-abiding business threatens you with arrest if you don't pay a debt. Third, no legitimate law-abiding business asks you to pay a debt via Western Union, Green Dot, Vanilla or whatever other pre-paid card they ask for.
And last but not least - legitimate law-abiding businesses will not violate bankruptcy protection laws and ask you to pay a bill which was covered by bankruptcy.
I got a call today on both of my phones on my cell phone plane they said
That he was an deputy Rogers with the missouri
