SCAAAMMM! for home properties want you to pay 19.99 to see other listings over the phone and dont provide a website.

Caller asked for person by name, but when we questioned who he was with he became quite rude.  Said he was a customer of ours.  When I tried to question a***n to direct to the appropriate person. He stated that he was "not going to play 20 questions".  I ***g up on him and called the number back.  It is a solitation for subscription number.  It would allow me to remove my number from their list, but will take up to 30 days and I must speak my name, number etc.

Or a ********* funding org.

jc Do not pick up this call. It relays all your info to them. Some kind of scam. FBI is working on it to arrest these people.

Harrasment at work

I got a call from this number, with caller id reading AMSI. It turns out to be "Real Solutions Center" with website: http://www.realsolutionscenter.org and they are also on the better business bureau website, bbb.org, under the name "Real Solutions Center" based in Mesa, AZ. Basically they say they can reduce credit card rates down to 7% APR, but the only catch is, you have to pay a supposed one time fee of $469, which they tack onto that already existing debt. Only 5 complaints on the better business bureau website, but I have no issues paying my credit cards, and that $469 c***k would be a large portion of it.

My first run in with "cashnet or as of now called quikpayday" was just year at the same time and date as this year. I was at first just receiving voicemails to my cell phone from some woman named "Kathy Jones" that I couldn't understand so I called them to find out how they are calling my cellphone number but only to be passed on to a guy that I also couldn't really understand named Scott. I have never taken money from on-line lenders so when I s****ed to get these calls I was godsmacked when I was being told that "You are lair and the cops are now on their way to arrest you!" in a very thick indian accent had me puzzled. He had an old bank account, an old address, and even a old place of work. I have called these online loan places telling them that scammers are using their name of business and are also saying that they work for "cyber crime division" and of course these places have no record of me taking money from them. I have all the numbers that they are using at this moment 213-232-4327, ***-961-8518,213-992-0684, and now a fax 323-739-3313, last but not least it say's Nevada 418-3094. T

LONG RUNNING AND KNOWN SCAM Fake Debt Collectors – Terrorizing Consumers http://abcnews.go.com/Business/story?id=5621205&page=1MORE ON FAKE DEBT COLLECTORS http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-904-425-9141http://www.thepittsburghchannel.com/call4action/17285785/detail.htmlhttp://www.800helpfla.com/newsletter/2008/092008.htmlhttp://www.w***o.gov/internetloanscam.cfmAttorney General Darrell McGraw took the extraordinary step today of warning the public about a band of scam artists making threats to consumers who allegedly obtained Internet payday loans in West ******ia and across the nation. The consumers they threaten never obtained a loan at all or paid it off years ago.Internet payday loans are short-term loans or cash advances, usually for 14 days, made over the Internet via interactive web sites and secured by an agreement authorizing debits of the loan and all fees owed from the consumer’s checking account. These loans typically charge interest rates ranging from 600-800 APR and are unlawful in West ******ia. The scam artists, who speak English with a foreign accent, call themselves “U.S. National Bank,” “Federal Investigation Bureau,” “United Legal Processing” and numerous other phony names. They refuse to disclose real names and addresses and are believed to be operating “off the grid” from homes, automobiles, or from off s**** locations or foreign countries, including India. Since the scammers have kept themselves purposely well hidden, thus far no law enforcement agencies have succeeded in locating or shutting them down.The scammers typically pose as law enforcement officers, investigators, lawyers, and bankers and threaten consumers that they will be arrested for “bank fraud” or other fic***ious crimes unless money is wired immediately. They simultaneously scare and confuse consumers by using meaningless legalese gobbledy**** phrases such as, “We are downloading warrants a***nst you” or “We are filing an affidavit a***nst you.” Consumers who don’t immediately fall for the scam are warned, “Only God can help you now.” The scammers almost always call consumers at work several times a day, and tell their supervisors, “Your employee has committed fraud and is about to be arrested.” Such threats have proven unsettling even to the most savvy consumers and employers who suspect the calls are fraudulent. Attorney General McGraw stated, “Ordinarily my office protects consumers from fraudulent activities by seeking *****ctions in court. But legal action cannot be taken until the scam artists can be located. Even then, it is unlikely that the persons behind the fraudulent calls and extortionist threats would obey a court order. In this case, the consumer’s best defense is to be armed with the knowledge of the scam so that all demands for money can be resisted, despite the false but scarey threats of arrest.”McGraw added, “Because the fraudsters make a special point of calling consumers repeatedly at work, employers must understand that the consumers are innocent victims of a criminal enterprise and cannot stop the calls from coming. I also wish to****ure the citizens of West ******ia that my office will continue to do everything possible to locate and shut down the outlaw debt collectors.” More information about this fraudulent debt collection scheme is available at the Attorney General’s website, www.w***o.gov/internetloanscam. Any consumers who have been threatened by these persons or wish to file a complaint about another consumer matter may do so by calling the Consumer Protection Hot Line, 1-800-368-8808, or by obtaining a complaint form from the Attorney General’s web site.It's a debt collection scam. And all their threats are false and illegal.This is a very active group of scammers, many of whom are calling from India (and probably other countries) and are in cahoots with a group of American pay day loan scammers. They attempt to extort money from consumers with a myriad of false and illegal threats, and alternately pose as debt collectors, federal and state law enforcement officers, lawyers and bankers. Their trademark is to use meaningless legalese gobbly**** phrases like "We are downloading warrants a***nst you" or "We are filing an affidavit a***nst you." Another trademark phrase is to threaten the consumer with so****ing like this ridiculous phrase: "If you don't pay then only God can help you."Typical of many financial scams of this variety, they usually demand payment via Western Union or MoneyGram or credit card. They use any number of phony names such as US National Bank, Federal Investigation Bureau, US Legal Investigation Bureau, Hopkins Law Office, United Legal Processing, Morgan****ociates, United Pay Services, National Processing, White Collar Crime Unit and many more.  These criminals also use many phone numbers from many area codes; they're probably using caller-id s****ing software and/or VoIP to disguise their real location.The main thing to remember is that anytime someone calls you demanding money to prevent your arrest, or demanding your lawyer's name so they can sue you, it is ALWAYS a scam. No debt collector (let alone criminals posing as debt collectors) has the authority to have anyone arrested for anything. (And it's illegal to them to threaten such a thing.) And since these foreign dirtbags routinely impersonate law enforcement, it's also important to remember that American law enforcement officers aren't in the business of debt collection.  (Debt is a civil, not a criminal, matter.)The bottom line is, these are criminals trying to steal your money.A consumer posting a complaint about these same scammers at http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-718-831-7157 notes that 718-831-7157 is****ociated with an India-based "outsourcing" telephone bank.  Though a reverse search on WhitePages.com shows that 718-831-7157 is an unlisted land line in New York City, information on Debtbuyers.Com shows that that number is used by India-based Intellisourze. (Source: http://www.debtbuyers.com/debtbuyers.asp ) My guess is that it's a VoIP phone number.This is another piece of the puzzle that fits in perfectly with other information about this scam. There are some reports on 800Notes that have suggested that the crooks behind this offs**** scam are also the crooks behind the notorious Bass/Ellis Crosby &****oc./States Predisposition scams in Florida and Georgia. The interesting thing is that the number of complaints on here about the US National Bank/US Legal Investigation/Federal Investigation scam skyrocketed *after* April 7, 2008 when Florida obtained a $1.3 million judgment a***nst Ted Ellis Crosby, shutdown his operations and barred him from ever conducting debt collections in Florida (Read http://myfloridalegal.com/newsrel.nsf/newsrel ... 5257424005858A6 ) There's certainly a good chance that the crooks placing these calls from India are doing so on behalf of the American crooks behind the Crosby/Bass/States Predisposition scams.Here's the contact information for the phone bank in India: IntellisOurzE BPO701, Sapphier, Nr.

Call or write your local Secret Service field office to alert them to the details of this attempted extortion. The addresses and phone numbers for the local Secret Service field offices are listed at http://www.secretservice.gov/field_offices.shtml or in your phone book.2.    Alert the FBI at https://tips.fbi.gov Be sure to tell the FBI that you are being targeted by extortionists over the phone. And if the crooks claim to be law enforcement or lawyers, officers of the court or bankers, be sure to include that information in your report.3.    File a complaint with your local police. Most police departments will take a report over the phone.  Be sure to tell them that you're being targeted by an extortionist and give them all the details.4.    File a complaint your state's attorney general, the contact information for whom is at www.w***o.gov5.    File a complaint online with The Federal Trade Commission at https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/FTC_Wizard.aspx?Lang=enIf these crooks call back, promise them nothing, pay them nothing and tell them nothing other than that you know they're a scam and that you've reported them to law enforcement. (And be sure to report them to all the agencies above each time they call you.)By the way, here's just a small sample of numbers used by this particular group of scammers. Read the reports and you'll see the same pattern time and a***n -- phony organization names, thick foreign accents, and oddly worded threats that are so melodramatic and ridiculous that it's laughable:http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-925-262-1327http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-678-954-6346http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-888-341-4004http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-856-831-0640http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-949-743-1140http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-410-505-8128http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-917-464-2534http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-210-858-6602http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-888-775-2121http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-949-743-1156http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-214-245-1402http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-214-245-0922http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-214-723-5572http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-904-425-2863http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-718-831-7157http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-904-425-2857http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-858-244-0444http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-954-678-9724http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-610-571-3252http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-310-909-8245http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-310-499-9983 Scam alert: Bogus debt collectorsBy Leslie McFadden • Bankrate.comMonday, Aug. 3Posted 2 p.m.Bankrate reporter Leslie McFadden contributed this entry.This scam isn't technically about credit cards, but it is scary enough to post a warning. 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.

I recieved a missed call from this number (213-232-2391) yes****ay (10/14/09), no message was left. I returned the call and recieved a recording saying all customer service rep.'s were busy to leave your account number and a message. I left a message with my name and number (which I probably should not have done), I recieved a nother call this morning and was told the person was from the LA Department of Transportation and did I own a Ford with License number ********. She had my husbands name and our address and mentioned a $194 bill.......but my phone was echoing so bad I could not understand all she was saying so I asked her to call me back. She has not yet called back.

this number keeps callin me and i dont answer from the pipol i dont know.. its anoyying he/she wont stop callin my phone

HAS ANYONE THAT HAS BEEN HARRASSED BY THESE PEOPLE EVER STAYED AT A HOLIDAY INN HOTEL CHAIN OR IS A MEMEBER OF THE PRIORITY CLUB THROUGH INTERCONTINENTAL HOTEL AND RESORTS.

It was collection agency.

I got about three calls from this guy today on my work phone...I picked it up because the caller ID said the phone number was in my same area code.I couldn't understand the person and when I tried to call the 213-232-5902 number, I kept getting a busy signal.I also received a call from 982-32 from the same guy.

They called me on yes****ay morning and asked about my brother.I don't know why they knew his name.Henestly, I told them that he left the house and would be back at noon.Their "strong" tonge scares me . . .

They do telemarketing for companies such as USA Grants, INC., 1500 East Tropicana Avenue, Suite 214, Las Vegas, Nevada 89119, phone # 877-872-3545, fax # 888-231-5746. Their name and address is Lizbeth Loera, Ruth Loera, also other possible name at this address Rosario Guzman, Josephine Guzman, Vincent Guzman, Victor Parra, Josefa Guzman. This is a land line and the address is 1620 East 45TH Street, Los Angeles, CA 90011. How you catch these people is somewhat difficult, when you call them it is automated so you are unable to talk to anybody. If you press 1 you get an automated voice so a***n you can't talk to anybody. How you catch them is you leave a fic***ious name, so****ing you can remember and wait for them to call you back (but leave you correct phone number). That will link the call center to the company that is getting the leads. This group of people are forwarding the leads to USA Grants, out of state, located in Las Vegas, Nevada. You could write Ms. Loera or Mr. or Ms. Guzman in Las Angeles a letter, requesting them to stop calling you. Or you can call their customer USA Grants and tell them to tell your call center to stop calling you. You are going to need active extensions to get thru after you dial 877-872-3545, active extensions are 304, 305, 306, 307, 308, 309, and 315.
