Yep, they just got me too, they said there's been a lawsuit complaint against me for a pay day loan I didn't even open but said oh its linked to maybe another one you've probably obtained, called himself a loan officer, Robert Miller with an indian accent....I went thru my speech about verification of the loan, then he asked if I had a fax available I told him no something should be sent via certified mail in writing to me so I can have my attorney verify the loan and also verification from him....he turns around and says oh well then the cops will be there shortly to pick you up since you don't want to pay and hung up... the scary thing is I changed my cell number because of these types of calls, now this one came to my job, so I have to try and figure a way to report them. Unbelievable!
I got this call on my cellphone, I never answer if it's a number I don't recognize. They left a message, someone with a very thick accent, I'm not sure, but I did hear asking for last for digits of my SSN, so I'm sure it's a scam.
it is a scam I receive a call from this number first did a reverse phone # search and it matched the caller id saying it was fron NC , I blocked the number so they could not call back, then a day later a call from another number, another person with an accent called from a NY # both came up in the reverse search as Sprint cell phone numbers. so be on the lookout for this number from NY 914-373-7034 Ossining, NY
it's probally from the same people scamming people. any people you suspect is a fraud should keep a log of the date, time, city and state that shows up on your caller ID if available, and phone number each time they call and keep every voice messages they leave on your answering machine , then report them to your local law enforcement agency , and your telephone company.
Here is the following info on the reverse number site
