I got the same call 2 days ago and a lady was talking about me, saying that something about state law with some noisy background of peoples talking, which I can barely hear her. Telling me my name and birth date and my bank's name.. Then saying that I own them 38$ and if I don't pay, it'd will affect my credits. Then asking me for my credit card number to "clear up the dept" but then I was thinking to myself, what the heck? I don't remember owning anybody money. So I was acting dumb repeating myself saying, "What dept!? for state law!?!" then the lady got mad and told me "Sir, call back when your listening." hahaha... So can someone tell me if this number is a scum?
sure sounds like it. I've been getting similar calls from the same number. Except I think they say I owe like $83 or something like that. I know I don't owe, but they just keep on calling.
THIS IS A SCAM. Scammers are using bought/hacked loan application data to extort payments for fictitious debts from victims and victims' families and friends.
