Prank Call
I received a voicemail from the same guy that everyone else is getting. I never took out a same day loan. The man said call back before something bad happens to me. In February I was getting calls from all different numbers and they were harassing me and when I asked who was calling they hung up. For 3 days I was getting over 60 calls a day.  They finally stopped calling every few minutes but I still get voicemails. I did file a complaint with the attorney general office and for the 3rd time added my cell number to the Do Not Call List. It is very frustrating to say the least. Thank you for all who have taken the time to pass along helpful resources and I hope that we will not receive these ridiculous harassing calls from scumbags who obviously enjoy getting others worried or upset.

I received this call today.  They stated they were with the Financial Crime Enforcement Network.  202-239-7044.  Stated that I was receiving this call due to a Federal lawsuit that was headed my way.  This department of the Federal Government does exist, however, this is for the invesgation of money laundring etc.  A scam from some debt collector I guess

UPDATE:

last week, when I received these calls, I emailed my state's Attorney General's Office. Today, they called me and verified these are scam calls and are being investigated.

DO NOT return their calls, except to tell them you are aware it is a scam.

DO NOT send them any money.

I have not received a call since I told this man that I knew he was a scam.

As soon as I posted, this idiot had the nerve to call me back. I asked his name, and he stated, in his heavy Indian accent, "Attorney Roy Miller." I informed him I'd already filed a complaint with my state's Attorney General's office, and he quickly hung up.

I received two phone calls from this number on March 20, 2014. The voice mails said, "Kindly call us back before something wrong happens to you."

I called back to find out what this was. A gentleman with a heavy Indian accent answered the phone, would not identify himself or give the name for a company. He said that I had a loan application and needed to "go to the courthouse". I informed him I did not apply for a loan, nor do I have any loans in my name. He said, "Are you sure?" Upon telling him I was sure, I asked for the specifics about this loan and he said, "You have that information and I have legal proof." I asked him to give me details and he said, "You must go to the courthouse if you're not going to pay this now." I asked him what he was talking about and he repeated that I needed to go to the courthouse. I asked which courthouse and he replied, "The one where we are."

At this point, I told him this sounded like a scam, and he abruptly hung up.

I called back and the same man answered the phone. I told him not to call my number any more. He said, "Oh, I'm so scared." I informed him I believed this to be a scam since he would not give me either his name or the name of who he represented. Again, he said, "You must go to the courthouse." I informed him I would inform the Attorney General's Office of this scam, and he replied, "You talk to your Attorney General, and bring him to the courthouse with you. Our Attorney Generals are already having a case against you."

It's obvious this is a scam. No details are given, demands are made for money, false information is given, and the man (who clearly wants to be believed to be of some kind of legal authority) isn't even aware of what an Attorney General is.

Extortion Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

Washington, D.C.
December 07, 2010  FBI National Press Office
(202) 324-3691

? filed under: Press Release

The Internet Crime Complaint Center has received many complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. Callers claim the victim is delinquent in a payday loan and must repay the loan to avoid legal consequences. The callers purport to be representatives of the FBI, Federal Legislative Department, various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies. They claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, and other Internet check-cashing services.

According to complaints received from the public, the callers have accurate data about victims, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, employer information, bank account numbers, and the names and telephone numbers of relatives and friends. How the fraudsters obtained the personal information varies, but in some cases victims have reported they completed online applications for other loans or credit cards before the calls started.

The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim?s home, cell phone, and place of employment. They refuse to provide any details about the alleged payday loans and become abusive when questioned. The callers have threatened victims with legal actions, arrests, and, in some cases, physical violence if they do not pay. In many cases, the callers harass victims? relatives, friends, and employers.

If you didn't take out any loans, then you already know he's a scammer.  No one gets a heads up they're being sued - the process server just shows up unannounced.  You don't have to get a lawyer to tell you the caller is full of BS.  Per the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) you should not pay any caller who refused to MAIL - do not accept email or fax - a debt validation letter which shows that (1) you do owe a debt and that (2) your caller has the legal right to collect said debt.  Refusal to mail this DV letter within five days of the first call is a violation of federal law.  Also - debt is civil, NOT criminal, so you cannot be "charged" with any crime for failure to pay back a loan.  Please do report your caller to the FTC, FBI and your state's Attorney General.
