Updated June 25, 2009 - this article just out by AP:IT'S LIGHTS OUT FOR DEBT COLLECTION AGENCY RUN BY FELONSBy DAVID B. CARUSO****ociated PressJune 23, 2009, 10:45PMNEW YORK — State authorities have shut down a collection agency they said terrified people across the country into paying debts by telling them if they didn’t send money immediately, they would be thrown in jail.Investigators said collectors working for the Buffalo company routinely posed as law enforcement officials in a bid to trick people into thinking they going to be arrested.During one call recorded by a debtor, a man who ***uely identified himself as an investigator from “the warrant division” said one victim was about to be “picked up.”“Make sure you have somewhere for your kids to go. Lock up your house. Get some clean clothes, because you’re not coming home anytime soon,” the caller said.In reality, authorities said, the business was run not by law officers, but convicted felons. Its owner was former drug dealer who goes by the nickname “Bags of Money” and served 13 years for attempted robbery.“This company was run by people who lied, bullied and preyed on vulnerable Americans struggling to resolve their financial situation,” Attorney General Andrew Cuomo said.The collection agency, which did business under several names, including Final Claims****et Locators, was ordered closed at least temporarily Monday by a judge.The company was the subject of a Dateline NBC expose in March. Its owner, Tobias Boyland, was arrested Tuesday on a weapons charge after investigators found he was carrying a loaded, unlicensed pistol. The search also turned up other weapons, including an AK-47, authorities said.

His name is Tobias Boyland. He owns several debt collection agencies. Has a criminal record for armed robbery. He lives in Buffalo, NY. He is also known as T-Money. He has side business in the music industry his website www.bagsofmoney.us. He has a my****e page. His phone number is 702-448-4515. If anyone has been harassed by him should call the FBI, Buffalo police. The names of the debt collection companies at present is Litigation Consulting Services, LLC. Integrity Resolution Group LLC. More Star, LLC. Final Claims****et Locators, LLC. The last one is located 3871 Niagara Capital Bldg. wasn't able to find exact address. One of his employees is Andrew Brzyski poses himself as a lawyer. Don't respond to these guys they are crooks. They use a***sive and threating tactics.

I was contacted by a "Agent Leslie White" with Special Crimes Unit Phone number is 240-483-4254, it is a number in the Baltimore/Bethesda MD area. I let the answering service take the call as I didn't recognize the number. She left an interesting amount of information, much of it wrong including the name of the person they were looking for: that person hasn't lived at my address for almost 10 years. Gave the wrong name for the County Clerks office also the Co. Clerks office handles car tags and tax payments not court cases... They aren't very savvy but neither are most of the folks getting the calls... BEWARE! Don't be bullied. Having credit problems? They will take advantage of you! Don't bite!

The calls are from Buffalo, NY at 3871 Harlem Road.Owner is Tobias Boyland, a convicted drug dealer.His partner is Dorian Wills and Dellian Sharp. They buy old debts, use people's ss# to blackmail them for money, use it to buy drugs.They threaten legal actions to scare them into paying. Everyone working there has a drug problem. Can't believe the feds haven't shut them down yet.

just got called by Carla James same scam asked me to call back at 240-483-4254

This is a group of people currently taking advantage of people across the United States. They go by a variety of names and phone numbers -- some of the names they use include Global****et Investigations, Worldwide Recovery Services, Worldwide****et Investigation Services and North American****et Investigation Bureau (NAAIB). Last year they were operating out of Cleveland, OH, until they were shut down -- the Cleveland BBB named them as one of the top ten scams of 2007 (http://cleveland.bbb.org/WWWRoot/SitePage.asp ... 19642b&art=4334).You can get more info here: http://www.budhibbs.com/debtcollectorpages/NAAIB.htm.They will probably continue using this MD number until they get shut down a***n, then s**** using a new area code, but the MO is always the same: they call and identify themselves in a way that implies they are either working for a lawyer, the court system, or the police department (all of these misleading statements are illegal); tell you that there has been a civil case filed a***nst you, they give you a case number, and tell you that you must contact them before a warrant is sworn out a***nst you. When you contact them, they tell you that they are investigating a debt that is 10, 12, 15 or so years old; they'll name some bank you've never heard of, or a credit card you've never heard of. They'll have just enough information about you to make you nervous and they'll be phishing to find out more information. They'll tell you that the debt is some ridiculous amount -- let's say $10,200 for an example -- but if you're willing to pay today, they'll reduce it to, for example, $650. But they can't give you an address. Instead, they will ask for your bank account or credit card number. They'll tell you that if you don't settle on the phone with them that moment, a sheriff will appear at your door within 48 hours to arrest you. NONE OF THIS IS TRUE. Complaints have been filed to the AG of OH, MD, TX, NY, and IL, as well as to the FTC, FCC, and the FBI (as they are trying to illegally extort money over the phone). They often target the elderly and infirm. Do not speak with them, and save whatever messages they leave on your phone. If you get a phone call, file a complaint online with the following organizations:http://www.oag.state.md.us/Consumer/complaint.htmhttps://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/FTC_Wizard.aspx?Lang=enhttp://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htmas well as the Attorney General of your own state. Remember: whether the debt is yours or not, you should not be dealing with these people. They are not a legitimate organization.PLEASE -- file a report. You were smart and savvy enough to do research on this number; not everyone is that lucky. REPORT THEM!!!

I got the same call. Did some research on the Internet and discovered they're crooks.

I am an attorney in CA.  I received a call from Laura James indicating that I owe a debt to Providian Visa (which I have never had) and that a criminal and civil lawsuit has been filed a***nst me.  They insisted I give them my checking account routing number and they would settle for 1/2 the balance owed.  Since I am a bankruptcy attorney, I have access to pull credit reports.  So, I pulled mine to see what type of debt I owed Providian and of course, none existed.I found this website when I googled the number.

I got the same call from someone named Maria Rogers. She said there was a civil complaint filed a***nst me and that they were investingating. The caller ID on my phone showed the number 240-696-1708, but she asked me to call back 240-483-4254. Seems like a scam.

got a call from sabrina washington stating i was named in a civil lawsuit and that i needed to contact them immediately. googled the number 240-483-4254 and discovered that this is a SCAM!

Same as the comments above, googled the number and it's a scam.  Don't give them any information

Received a call from a Laura James claiming to be a civil claims processor - she claimed that my husband had a formal civil complaint and criminal aligation a***nst him in Ramsey County and said he was required to report for court and it was a time sensitive matter.  She did not*****ounce his name properly and left a case # for us to call and confirm the court date with her.  Fortunately I found this web site and I hope these people get busted ASAP!

Called and left message about affidavit and law suit a***nst me. Wants me to contact them ASAP. call originated from 240-696-1779. Hyattsville, MD
