The Better Business Bureau issued an alert today saying consumers across the country are getting phone calls from bogus debt collectors claiming default on a payday loan. Of course, the consumer needs to pay a large fee to avoid arrest -- as much as $1,000.The caller poses as a lawyer, and may threaten extradition to face trial if the consumer doesn't pay up immediately.What makes these calls alarming -- and perhaps convincing -- is that the perpetrators reference the consumer's personal information, such as the person's Social Security number, driver's license number, previous bank account numbers, home address -- even personal references."The amount of information they have is really troubling," says BBB spokeswoman Alison Southwick. She adds that the amount of data points to a possible security breach.Spread the word to your friends and family: Don't give out personal or financial information to an unknown caller. Scammers can s**** Caller ID to display different numbers, so trust your instincts over technology.The BBB offers these tips:• Ask the debt collector to provide official do***entation which substantiates the debt. • Do not provide or confirm any bank account, credit card or other personal information over the phone until you have confirmed the legitimacy of the call. • File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission online if the caller is abusive, uses threats or otherwise violates federal telemarketing laws or the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. • File a complaint with the Better Business Bureau online if you believe a debt collector is trying to scam you.
this number has been calling me for months threatening that i need a lawyer or myself to call. no reasoning why...just that it is over an important matter. it's the same guy calling every time. he's said that his name is josh, mike, and now today sukjinder. he's an annoying indian guy. today he left a message saying criminal charges were going to be filed a***nst me and some **** about a prison. he never leaves a company name. i've also switched jobs over the last year and he's left messages on my desk phones also.
DONT RECEIVE ANY CALLS AND DONT GIVE THEM ANY INFO. THEY ARE SCAMS AND FREUDS AND THEY ARE HAVING EVERY INFO THEY ARE HACKERS BEWARE
Its yet another scam from people with very american names with very arabic accents. He claims to be an Officer Chris Watson and claims he has "legal alligations" a***nst your social security number. Dont give them any information and report calls to your local authorities.
scam
He said his name was Curtis Watson and that legal actions were being taken a***nst me but couldn't talk about it over voice mail
Left message, said he was Officer Chris Watson, hard to understand but said legal actions were being taken a***nst me and that I should return the phone call immediately.
