I just wanted to let people know, this person is in no way affiliated with Law Offices of D. Michael Tomkins of Seattle. We are a boutique firm, and would never take part in this practices, and this isn't even a phone number we own. I just wanted to clarify for anyone who might confuse us with the offending party.

It was a debt collector.

Same story as all of the above!! He wanted me to "settle" this for $500 and no legal action would happen, otherwise they would call my job and have me fired then arrested and put in jail, yada, yada, yada! What can be done about this?

I received a unfriendly vicious call today similar to the ones posted here, but get this your posted name/number is the number given to call back.  It I call your posted Number and you claimed to be Michael Tompkinmlaw office.  What's up with this. Who are you?

The same exact thing has happened to me. He has been calling me for the past 3 days & there's always noise in the background so it's hard to understand him. Everytime he called me, I could hear my echo. He told me I had taken a loan out for $300 & that I never paid it back & that I was being sued by quick pay loans. He said I could make a settlement payment of $550 but I had to write a handwritten letter "authorizing" to charge my card & he even told me to fax him a copy of my license ! I went to my police station & had a case opened. I called the actual law firm & was told there's someone trying to rob people's money & using their law firm name ! They always call from weird or incomplete numbers ! Do not fall for this ! Call the credit bureaus & have a fraud alert put on ur social & report this to the cops ! I hope they catch him soon cuz he seems to gave all my information ! :[

i received a call from an arabic speaking man who left me a message advising that legal action was going to be taken for something i have no clue as to what he is talking about he said that he would be contacting me at home and the police would be coming to my job and home and i stated i didnt have a clue as to what he was talking about he called me a bi*** because i kept telling him this and i am still confused as to waht this person was talking about i know that debt collectors do not go to this extent and the police do not have time for such nonsense when there is real crime happening I have never committed a crime in my life...

they have started calling my job as well and my boss got on the phone and took care of it. they have been telling me for months they coming to arrest me. they are scammers and ruining all of us we have to stop them somehow.

I'm in the same boat as all of yall, it is so stressing... they are calling my job, i never thought it could be me. something has to be done to these people. they are trying to ruin our lives, and trying to distory our names... where do we go from here????

Same as everyone else.

If you can't call back, it means the number is spoofed and the caller should be treated as hostile.

THIS IS A SCAM. Scammers are using bought/hacked loan application data to extort payments for fictitious debts from victims and victims' families and friends.

The BBB has issued several alerts on this scam, just google "bbb.org alert phony debt collector"
Report to the Internet Crime Complaint Center http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx , the Federal Communications Commission http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm , the Federal Trade Commission https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ and your state AG, as appropriate.

I received a very threatening phone call this morning from "Daniel Brown".  He said I should notify my employer that I would be arrested at work in the morning.  I work for a school district so this should be fun on a Saturday.  I'm glad I "Googled" this number because this joker would not answer any of my questions.  I plan to notify the Better Business Bureau as well as a friend of mine that works for the FBI.  My best friend is also an Attorney and she already has all this info.  Hopefully this "Crap" will stop or at least slow down a bit. This guy said if I gave him my debit card for $522.00  this would all go away.  Right??

Same exact story here

I received several calls today from the same numnber with the same story, threatening to send the police to file charges against me for an unpaid claim for a Quick Pay Day Loan, They did have alot of my personal information though. What can be done about this

Got a call from these jokers.... and said I would end up in jail...they have been trying to collect 250.00 and now I owe like 5 grand..... got another shadey call like this, but they would not give out a bench number...this one did...????? Never asked for money.....nor did I. Get any, I have statements to prove it...now trying to call back and number is no good...???!!!!

I have received the same phone call and am reporting them to the Attorney General's office for the State of Washington.  I also gave them when they called me the number to the FBI!    Yet another scam and another way to exhtort money from people.  Have all of the phone #'s written down.

Sure they did...NOT!!!!

I received a call from this number (206) 203-7293, the so called "Michael Thompkins Law Office".  I received a similar threatening call in the past from a different number but back then I actually returned the call.  And the person on the line claiming to be an attorney stated that I had taken out a loan, did not pay, etc. but would not give me the company name or any information that I asked for.
He just shouted, said a federal suit would be filed, I would serve jail time, and hung up.
I contacted an attorney who felt it was a scam for many reasons but also stated that no one has been arrested for being in debt since the civil war.
I ignored the calls from the past number and they finally stopped.
Now I'm receiving calls from this number.  All callers seem to have foreign accents, calling from what seems like a call center, and claiming to have names like Crystal and Bob.
I'm glad that I googled this number and found out that yet this is another scam.

thankyou sir for resolving my case thanks to michal thomkins law office

I usually never answer calls from unknown numbers. Boy am I sorry I did today. First a call came in from 2180022, then from 298-486-2536. A random lady said that I was going to be charged with fraud and like three other things. When I told her that I have no idea what she's talking about, she told me that she was going to transfer me to the attorney handling my case. A 'Daniel Brown', from Michael Thompkins Law, (contact number: 206-203-7293) came on the line to give me the rundown about my case. Apparently, I've borrowed money from some online payday loan company and 'whenever repayment was attempted, it was declined due to insufficient funds or whatnot. So they will be filing against me today, coming to my house tomorrow, and showing up at my job on Monday. They actually had me spooked enough to call my attorney. Thankfully, a rep at the firm gave me the good advice to research/Google this alleged firm. I've come across this site and others talking about this scam. I am seething with anger. These people must be stopped. I know folks need jobs, but this scam is ruthless and ridiculous.

I had a similar experience very shady as I never took out such a loan and have the bank statement to prove it.

Called threating leagal action and that they would send me to jail for a loan that was not paid...nor taken out.  They say the loan company they represent was Quick Pay, but could not give a specific date of the loan or the amount.  Said they had tried to collect and contact me via e-mail (funny I thought collections would come through USPS).  Called me twice and have a post on reportthecall.com.
