Got the same email with a lame attachment of a bogus arrest warrant - LOL! Did a little research on my own and found out that the phone number 202-506-9999 was issued by MagicJack but before they disconnect it they are researching it because they believe it is attached to another number that is hidden. Have to say, MagicJack company was very helpful after I told them the number is being used for fraud. So, by the end of today that number should no longer be taking calls. Now to move on to discovering where the email truly came from. Sick and tired of these scammers and how they scare people! I was so terrified after the first call and then after talking to my lawyer, realizing that it's all a scam just made me mad!

I just received a email just like that.  Says I had an warrant for my arrest. I too called that number and got a voice mail to a cellphone.  I was then convinced it was a scam. So, BEWARE@

Was emailed a arrest warrant.  When called he couldn't give me any information but his name Adam west he works in Washington D.C. for the affadavid department. But wanted all information from me. I gave him nothing. But nice scam and way to scare people.

I received an email about a warrant for my arrest, attached the letter with the United States District Court on the top of the warrant. When I called this bogus foreigner he could not find me unless I gave my email address. I contacted the Attorney Generals Office and I am reporting and forwarding the email they sent me, to them. They need to be stopped and stop using the US as their firewall to them.

It is illegal to forge any state or federal document. What I've done is copied and pasted your comments and the "fake Arrest warrant"  along with the email to my local satellite F.B.I. Branch (internet crime division) For them doing this on such a large scale with court "state" or "federal" forgeries if convicted (and it's a scam so they will- just look at their "warrant" as there is no county or state listed on it) they will get federal prison time.
Also Homeland Security will be involved using the patriot act, along with the I.R.S. (if they suckered anyone out of money) and tax fraud on their part (these scams) carry Federal Prison Terms as well.
So IF YOU GET AN EMAIL FROM THEM JUST DO WHAT I DID- your local F.B.I. office is easy to look up in your county or state & go to their internet crime division. It only takes a few minuets to do...

Caller: "202" area  code  fake  calls ,  bogus / fraud  scam

I received an e-mail  marked important! Oh my goodness it had an attachment! It was a warrant for my arrest. I was terrified as it was a federal arrest warrant for violation of a federal banking  law. If I did not respond I would be arrested and could serve 10 year's and 50,000.00 I called the number provided  I could not understand 1 word the man spoke his name was Adam Garcia.Telephone  number  202-506-9999 This is a scam I am per suing this with local authorities

Emailed me saying I have a warrant for my arrest.

I receive the same email. Who i can do?

F**k ... Behen'chod

Behen'chod is abuse word ... details here
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_bhenchod_mean?#slide=2

I seat several letters out on this and repoted the people to FTC and FBI on this scam and others that they wont money for some loan that was not even giving out in the first place the bank does not honor loans from anyone which is why they are commenting a crime even  sending this out.

I received the same email.  Just hit delete!  I know better.

That's the same email that I received today.

I got the same email! Will they really get ahold of your work or is that just a threat to get you to call? Do I need to warm my boss something might be coming?

Shill, you are so full of bovine manure you need mouth wash.  Debt is a civil matter, not a criminal matter.  On the other hand, the behavior consumers are describe this company engaging in is illegal, it is wire fraud, a federal offense.  Moreover, planting false testimonials on sites such as this ("shilling") is illegal per FTC regulations.

Wrong!

Do you own the magicJack that is being used to place these calls?

You can always try asking if he is the owner of the magicJack number he is calling from.  That should get a rise from him, too.

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.

No they can't! Debt is a civil matter, not criminal! Nice try Shilly, but epic fail!

Yes, They can do this.

No - debt is civil, not criminal, so no one is going to be arrested for failure to pay back a loan.  

Even if you HAD committed a crime, the cops don't call you and give you a heads up - they just show up and arrest you!

If you had an arrest warrant, the cops would have already shown up and arrested you!  However, being that debt is civil, not criminal, no one is going to be arrested for failure to pay back a loan!

had a call from this man saying sometthing an arrest warrant . can they do this?

I got the same email. hope they end up in jail.

I just received the same e-mail, idiot!  I am retired from the Sheriff's Department, and know for a fact, this guy  should be behind bars!!!!

Received this email earlier this morning.  How are you going to serve someone by email?  And it went to junk mail at that.  LOL

Adam Garcia

(202) 506 9999


State Investigation Department

Same thing has happen to me also.  But I call the state attoneys office in my state and they said that if you had a arrest warrant they would never contact you by email. They would havea government email address not aol. Plus it stated that if I called and may payment arrangements they would not serve. Once a warrant has been issued it cannot be retracted from being served and you would not be able to make payment arrangements. If it was ligit it would not come to your spam folder. This is a bogus and a scam.

This scammer has changed his name from Mike Anderson (Mike J. Anderson) to Adam Garcia.   (See the following thread in which Jessica (5 Sep 2013) reports the *identical* email text from Mike Anderson: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-786-505-7875


Here's a YouTube recording of "Mike J. Anderson":


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anJ_X8jZx5s


Mike Anderson: ?State?s Attorney Office.  This is Mike Anderson.?

Caller: ?Yes.  How can I help YOU, Mr. Anderson?  I received a bogus email.?

Mike Anderson: ?Bogus email?  Then why you call?  Hmm.  Goodbye.?

Caller: ?Thank you.  You confirmed it.?

Mike Anderson: ?Hmm.  F**k [unintelligible].?

+++++++++++++++++++++++

If anyone can understand the last word(s) Mike Anderson says in the "[unintelligible]" part of the transcript, would you please post a reply?

Caller: Fake State Attorney (Mike Anderson)
