(206) 855-5350

i received a call on may 21, 2010. he left a message and stated that he was going to download an arrest  profile into my personal profile. I left him a message stating that my lawyer has his number and will be contacting him first thing Monday morning. He stated that his name was William Walker.

I got calls from a officer Kevin Smith and Jessica Brown. Saying that I would be arrested and they were  would like to clear up a debt. And if I did not clear it up they would press charges a***nst me for writing bad checks etc. The officer Kevin Smith left messages with a friend and my sister. And when I called back he refused to speak with me until I call back and give him all the information he had asked me to write down. When asked what company they were handling my debt with they gave me some check place which I had not even heard of. He then placed me over to a Jessica Brown who asked me to clear up my debt and asked for my banking info. The bank they were using was a bank I had not done business with in over 2 years. So I did some checking and was told this was a scam.

Received a call from an Officer "Tom Scott" threatening to arrest me. I've dealt with this scam before, so I called at 7:00 in the morning & asked for Officer Scott. I had done my research already & knew it was a scam. He told me he was Officer Scott's supervisor William Walter. It wasn't until later that he added Officer & a fake badge #. He tried to verify my info. I stopped him & asked what company he was "collecting" for. He gave me ***ue info about EME Marketing. I stopped him a***n & insisted on WHICH company; that I would not confirm anything until I knew who the company was. He got frustrated & told me to stop interrupting him so he could finish reading his prompt. I nearly laughed out loud!I got a little more info out of him & laid into him. I told him the call was being recorded & that my attorney was working with the AG for my state & the call was being traced. I informed him that he was in violation of numerous FDCPA laws, federal and state laws--including impersonating an officer, in violation of US Bankruptcy laws, Identify Theft (which is a 20 year imprisonment and $100,000 fine) & repeated FTC violations as well. He got a little incensed & insisted that he was an officer and repeated his "badge #". I told him I could say I was Officer Suzy Q with badge #123 but that didn't make me an officer! He then tried to tell me I was breaking the law by calling him before 8am. A***n...almost choked on the laughter. I let him know those provisions of FDCPA applied to collectors, not consumers. I ended up by telling him I'd already contacted EME and they not only didn't have an officer Tom Scott or William Walter working for them, that they did not use any outside collection agencies. So add hacking into a company's data base to the list of illegal activities!By this time he's angry & s****s repeating what he'd already said. I told him my attorney would be contacting him & we were cooperating with all authorities to pursue him to the fullest extent of the law. He told me he hopes I can sleep at night and ***g up. We have a trace on the number which is "assigned" to Belleview, Washington but is actually running out of the West Indies.You may need to contact the 3 credit bureaus to notify them of ID theft if they do have your info. Good Luck and don't let up on the crooks!

Received one, too. Am in contact with the authorities.

I also recieved a call from a man with strong Indian/Middel East accent, a Nick Anderson with Legacy Legal so****ing, so****ing... accent so strong I could not understand.  Sounded like he was calling from a call center, very nosey.  He said it was a legal complaint with my name as a reference on the doc. If I did not respond full legal action would be taken and he wished me good luck.  A little scarry at frist so far do not know what info he has of mine.  When I called back I got his voice mail.

Well it does sound like you guys have all had the same experience. They are all working together.

I got about 3 or 4 of these from Officer John Cop (hard to tell from his accent--he could barely speak enough English to read from the script he was obviously using). I knew from the get go that this was a scam but he kept calling me and even left a voice mail. These people had all my personal information including ss and bank account number. He claimed he was from some so****ing of Investigation and Crime....(hard to understand with accent).  I would only take this seriously since he had my personal information and I intend to contact the authorities. To maybe give you so****ing to help you, three or four months ago, I got some other scam calls from other foreigners claiming that I had defaulted on some payday loan in CA. I contacted the actual payday loan company and got an e-mail from them stating that I had never ever had a payday loan with them and that their name was being used in a familiar phone scam. What these guys would do was claim that you had defaulted and charges were being filed in a CA federal court. I finally called their bluff, but to me, this appears to be an extension of that one. It would be interesting to find out if anyone else had that happen as well (that is on this forum) as the two could be connected.  Thanks

I keep receiving calls from this Officer James Walker from the US Investigation stating that I am being brought to court regarding payment...I do not know this person and have had many calls regarding this and he has a Middle Eastern accent and knows my SS# and my family information and work related information. Who should I contact in regard to this...This is scary that he has all my information.

I have gotten these calls on and off going on 18 months after the second call I reported it to the Attorney Generals Office and they are investigating it. They called a***n today and I let them know they we now under investigation and the guy called me a ***** ******* and ***g up so I called him back and we had a not so nice conversation. Once I ***g up he called me back from 911 Emergency. So****ing needs to be done to STOP these guys!!!!!

we have been dealing with thses same people since december too, we have called several #'s too FBI,FCC

we have been receiving these kind of calls since December...always men with Indian accent, very hard to understand, harrassing, claiming we are being sued for a payday loan debt (we never had), and that we need attorney, and that my husband will be arrested if we dont call back and take care of it...when will this stop? Well, he hasnt been arrested yet. So it is a SCAM...I have reported each number that calls, but they just keep using different numbers. How can we get these ****** scammers?? Why are they always heavily accented men with American names??? Such as Officer Justin Watson, Offficer Jack Austin, and so on??? And they can never mail you any proof or information in the mail....they say they arent authorized to do so. Whatever, when have you ever had a debt that you didnt get calls and letters from the actual creditor??? This is so wrong for them to do this and they have all the personal information of my husband...that is so scary.

Have you applied for a payday loan in the last year with maybe Salaryfast.com?

I'm keeping a log. Any of you get additional info? 4/13/10PHONE CALL FROM 206-855-5350 (landline from Bainbridge Island, WA unlisted) – claiming to be William Walter from US Investigation Bureau representing EME Marketing in regards of legal complaint # AL0786512—Check Fraud Mr Walter has a thick “Indonesian” or "Middle Eastern" accent citing that I made a payday loan on or about 6/3/2009 and this loan is in collection. Mr Walter indicated that I was about to be sued and or arrested over the supposed debt. He provided a partial bank account number -drawn off of Bank of America. Although I do have an account there he could not supply me with the complete number. He stated that $390 was deposited in this account on 6/3/2009. Upon review of this account no such deposit was made. However there was a deposit of $200 from Salaryfast.com. I called the phone number indicated on the transaction and spoke with the representative named Bruce. He informed me that the account was paid in full on 12/11/2009 and also that several of their customers have received similar threats. That this was a huge scam and not to pay this extortion. Mr Walter has also made contact with my daughter issuing the same threat to her. I SUBMITTED ONLINE A COMPLAINT WITH THE FBI AS WELL AS ISSUED AN EMAIL TO MR CUCCINELLI the VA State District Attorney. 4/21/2010Phone Call from 707-474-3337 looked number up on google and found that the number is attached to Fraud. Individual calling himself Chris Mathews. When I call him back he claimed that Chris Mathews was his paralegal and that his name was Kevin Lee with American Law Division. This is the same voice from before. I confronted on the phone about the call last week and that I also thought him to be William Walter. Once I announced that I reported that call to the FBI Fraud as well as the State’s attorney general he said goodbye.

Received a call today.

I received a phone call on both of my cell phone #'s reporting that i was being investigated by someone from this number and would be brought to court. He strongly advised me to get legal representation before the court hearings and wished me good luck. He had a middle eastern accent and new my information such as my date of birth and the last 4 numbers of my social security number. I would like to know if this is just a scam or should i reply. How would he get such information for me such as the last 4 of my social, birthday and home address. Plus link that information to 2 of my phone numbers one of which i do not use never have, it is my ex's number that hasnt been used in months for anything.

a Nick Anderson keeps calling me from this # saying that there is a legal action a***nst. he has called my in-laws and made threats. this has being going on for several weeks. i will be reporting this to my attorney general as this is very scary for someone to know this much info.

Nick Anderson just called three times was rude and refused to take no for an answer you would think with a name like nic anderson that he would speak english with out a hevy aribic accent ... what a scammer

Ol' Ackhmaad Azule called me today and began calling me names that did not even make sense. Then after talking to my girlfriend I found that any number beginning with a plus (+) sign is bad news. How do we put a stop to this? I was called from +206-855-5350, both my cell # and my home phone which are supposedly on the National No Call list. I ask then how did Ackhmaad and his gang of ********* get them? It is pretty scary to think they can get US citizens information this easily in this day and age of computer hacking and idenity theft, what's next? Our SSI #'s? Drivers license #'s? Home addresses? Very scary indeed!

I received a phone message from my employer, that A William Walter contacted my employer and left a message to call him at the above number. I am not going to contact him back, due to the post that I received from the Google search I conducted on the number. I have advised my employer that this is a scam, I will let my employer handle this if he keeps calling.

Officer Nick Anderson just called a place employment for one of my reps.  I then called back and got his SO called supervisor.  This is not OK

I have gotten these calls all hours day and nite.It has been from a few different not american type men I had hard time hearing them and asked to speak to the supervisor.I was threatened and I said for them to stop calling I continue to get them they have repeated my social so Im not happy

I rec the same call when I called the number back never got an answer, Not sure if my if cam from apply for a new car and my husband got the same call.

Received phone call. Did not answer.

I work in Southern CA and just spoke to a citizen who has received phone calls from this number asking for the citizen's COMPLETE SOCIAL SECURITY number and when denied - makes threats.  I called the phone number three times and spoke to at least 2 different Middle-Eastern male adults who were evasive with their answers and ***g up on me when I confronted them and demanded they stop trying to "scam" or "con" people in Southern CA.  There is no doubt in my mind these people are just that, scammers and con artists.  DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TO ANYONE WHO CALLS YOU AND ASKS FOR IT OVER THE PHONE, OR IN PERSON FOR THAT MATTER.  Any information obtained in this manner will undoubtedly lead to iden***y theft!!

I just got a voice mail message from a man with a middle eastern accent too.  He said he was from "Legal Investigation Department, State of Washington." He told me that I had been named on some kind of legal issue in Washington State, and that I had to call him immediately, and that people were on there way to my house.  He told me to call him back or only God could help me, then he proceeded to wish me good luck and a good day.  He said his name was William Walter.

Middle Eastern sounding voice. name used: Harry Connor  He told me, on voice-mail, my name & number unfortunately was listed on an illegal or legal do***ent. As a reference?? I have no idea what this is about & this seems very fishy. So I Wanted more info before I even think of calling this number back. thanks
