He said he was from the Department of Investigation..which is pretty funny, because i decided to call him back..When i called the number back the person answered the phone HELLO?? not department of investigations..I asked for officer ryan black, he told me one moment let me see if he is in..then told me he just stepped into the office with a lawyer??  He asked if he could call me back..I said no i dont want you to call my number again..I know you are a scam i have looked you up..Just to let you know. you gave it up when you answered the phone hello..instead of department of investigations! he say OH??? and hung up..hahaha!

Ugh i have gotten so many calls from this number...my husband is a police officer and when he called them back they threatened to put him in jail for impersonating a police officer. They are so annoying!! I do not even know the person they are looking for! I wish there was a way to stop these calls!!! I have tried everything under the sun to stop them but nothing works!!!!

SCAM SCAM SCAM  AUSTIN PHILLIPS....YEA RIGHT....CAN'T EVEN SPELL IT! CALL MY PERSONAL NUMBER AND MY WORK NUMBER. I THREATENED TO KILL A COW ON HIS DESK, HOPEFUL THAT WILL END THE CALLS.

they called me 6 times today alone at my job. JOHN SCOTT (which isn't his real name) kept calling and harassing me saying he was with an attorney office.  but he's not, because i just googled the number and this is not a number to a law office!!!  IT'S A SCAM.

214-461-0552 called my phone and said they were from "the law firm" not just a particular one but "the" one...haha..anyways, i looked up the number on google and saw a lot of posts about this being a scam. So I called back the number and asked them what law firm they are from, they said "Resolution Center" is the name of their company. Hmmm...that doesn't sound like a legit  law firm to me. Also they asked who i was calling for, I told them Eric Carter,they didn't sound like they knew who an Eric Carter was but he was the guy who called me in the first place....hmmm somthing fishy. I told them I looked up thier number and told them it was a SCAM and right after i said that the guy said "Ok thanks bye!" and hung up super fast. SO DO NOT Give them ANY of your personal information this is a scam!

They have called my cell phone several times.. MIKE JOHNSON and MARK SMITH... saying they were a law office.

214-461-0552 just called my husbands work, the gentleman callings name is BRIAN HUNT.  He said he was with the Department of Law and Investigation, but after googling the TEXAS area coded number, we have seen lots of scam posts connected to this number.  We have no dealings with any debts that would arise from TEXAS so please, beware of this SCAM!!!

This company called and left a MSG saying that they were from the department of law and fraud so I called the number back and the guy answer the phone asking what's my case number and then asked was I calling with my attorney name and number so I asked what was the call about and he said hold let me transfer u to someone else another guy gets on the phone and starts threating me and then called me a piece of sh$$ then hung up....these guys are up to something don't give them any personal information

they called saying i was wanted and not even me but my family

I got a call from them 2 days in a Row. they said there were from the National Affidavit Processing dept. and they were threatening me and said they were going to sue me for fraud  for a payday loan i didnt have back in 2008 and that i needed to have my lawyer called them with their name and number. At first it scared me and then i googled the number and got this forum, so he called back a few minutes ago and I told him i was reproting him to the police for hasrrasment. And he told me to what i wanted and i said ok and looks like we will both be in court suing eachother! its just hat they are calling my job but i reported them to my HR

I just called this number back and asked the person at this phone number--for the 2nd time in a month--to remove my phone number from their call list. I explained--again!-- that I have never heard of the person they are trying to contact, and that I am on the do-not-call list and, further, do not appreciate the attention.  I hope it works this time, because they call frequently, leaving messages that come as close to threats as they probably can without breaking any laws. Or do they? Hm, they're not checking numbers against the do-not-call list, apparently, and that's definitely a no-no. It sounds like they are trying to collect on a debt, but they never said so outright.

I have received several calls from this number.  He is using the name Mike Johnson and he is also threatening me but I knew it was a scam when he started talking.  I hope they catch them soon and fry their butts!!!!!

I am getting calls from someone at this number saying he is Brandon McCellean calling from Department of Investigations. He than gave me to a guy named Dan Morgan. hmmmmmmm.............

I agree! That's the first thing I said! He's in on it!

You are a f****ng moron. I cant even bleep the ridicolous s*** out. I hope you rott in hell you stupid t**t. People like you dceserve to burn in hell.

I have been calls from them too. He said his name is was Charles Henry and he said he was with with the Department of Law and Investigations. He said that I have a court case I needed to resolve a legal issue with him OR i can pay 450.00 dollars over the phone. They all had Middle Eastern accents.

mine keeps telling my manager his name is robert cleave.  from the dept. of law and investigations.  these people need to be caught.. they are going to get me fired.  this is the second scam I've had inside of two months.  succeeded in convincing my manager to block the 888 number from coming in.  now this

I just received a call from this number claiming to be officer robert cleave of the dept of law and investigations.

Does anyone have an actual address & company info for them so I can lodge a complaint....  I have recieved several calls early morning (6 & 7 am)...  they are impersonating a lawyer (again bogus)... and refer to themselves with ficticious names... ryan black is the latest (note: thick indian accent... definetely not a black).  claim to have an afidavid... laughable... personally id rather they actually sue so I can deal with an inteligent human being vs. someone who is flagrently breaking the law.

http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2010/01/ks_debt_collection.html   latest release of information on this scam

http://www.wvago.gov/internetloanscam.cfm
Attorney 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 Virginia 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 Virginia.

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 shore 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 fictitious crimes unless money is wired immediately. They simultaneously scare and confuse consumers by using meaningless legalese gobbledygook phrases such as, ?We are downloading warrants against you? or ?We are filing an affidavit against 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 injunctions 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 assure the citizens of West Virginia 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.wvago.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 gobblygook phrases like "We are downloading warrants against you" or "We are filing an affidavit against you." Another trademark phrase is to threaten the consumer with something 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 Associates, 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 spoofing 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 associated 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 offshore scam are also the crooks behind the notorious Bass/Ellis Crosby & Assoc./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 against 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:

(Source: http://whois.domaintools.com/intellisourze.com )
Though scam calls from these crooks have been going on long before May 8, the frequency of complaints about these calls increased considerably after Crosby was shut down in early April.
This is conjecture, but appearances suggest that Crosby and company were originally running a two-pronged payday loan scam operation -- with some calls being made from Jacksonville, Florida and other calls being made from a phone bank in India (and possibly other countries); then, after the Florida Attorney General shut down the Crosby scams in Florida, the Crosby crooks transferred most of their scam efforts to the India phone bank.

If you are targeted by these criminals, be sure to report them to all the following federal and state law enforcement agencies (most of which you can do online or over the phone):
1.    The U.S. Secret Service is responsible for protecting the country's financial infrastructure and payment systems from international and domestic threats. 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.wvago.gov
5.    File a complaint online with The Federal Trade Commission at https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/FTC_Wizard.aspx?Lang=en
If 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 again -- phony organization names, thick foreign accents, and oddly worded threats that are so melodramatic and ridiculous that it's laughable:

Scam alert: Bogus debt collectors
By Leslie McFadden ? Bankrate.com
Monday, Aug. 3
Posted 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 spoof Caller ID to display different numbers, so trust your instincts over technology.
The BBB offers these tips:
?    Ask the debt collector to provide official documentation 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.
