Officer John Peterson - who has a thick indian accent & is impossible to understand, is a payday scam artist who pretends he has a warrant unless you pay him by credit card or western union immediately by phone. I almost fell for it & was asking for an address to send a check to. This completely confused the guy. TOTAL SCAM!!! BEWARE!
My co-worker just rec'd a call from this number looking for another of my co-workers...if that co-worker didn't call back they would issue an arrest warrant. He identified himself as "Officer John Peterson" and gave the 201-215-7140 as the call back number. Except when we ran the number it didn't come up a police department...it came up with this site.
They called and he said he was from the US Federal Crime and Prevention Bureau. I proceeded to ask a message and he did not answer any of the ones i asked that anyone should answer. This is a scam
Yeah I did they left a voicemail but said nothing. I called backed and the dude was talking so fast asking if I was who I was and if my ssn was mine and my phone number. I thought something was phony because he said I had the phone number since 2009 and I didn't. I actually just got this phone like 3 months ago. They also said something about me having the email address since 2009. That was incorrect also. I signed up with gmail in 2010.
I have recieved a call from this # today saying they are threatening legal action against me if I do not respond today. I do not believe it is legit!!I called the number back and some one else answered and said they have not called anyone in the lat 15 minutes. Beware!!
