I probably would've died laughing, and told them, "Well, it's gonna take longer than that, cuz I'd have to go open one first ... and last I heard, they don't let you do withdrawals for about 10 days.  So, you might wanna hold off on that arrest."

Sadly, though, they catch people at vulnerable times, and they get the information ...
BUT, while the people may be out the money, that just gives the FEDS more info on THEM!!

If these people were only HALF the professional thieves they think they are, they'd almost be smart enough to rob their own piggy banks!

It also occurs to me that, particularly on the GreenDot/Prepaid card ?payments,? since they are apparently difficult to trace, I seriously doubt they are reporting these funds on their income taxes === tax evasion.  (That?s the way they finally got Al Capone!)  The IRS has forms for reporting suspected evasion, and even a reward form you can complete for if you help them catch the folks!
http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/How-Do-You-Rep ... aud-Activity%3F   (I?m 99% sure it?s the Form 3949-A that you?ll want to complete if you?ve been swindled by these folks.)    It looks like Form 211 is to claim a reward!
http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f3949a.pdf   -- Form 3949-A
http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f211.pdf  -- Reward form

   I personally don?t care WHICH branch of the government goes after these people, as long as THEY get REAL FEDERAL ARREST WARRANTS out on them!!  So, if you?ve been taken in by these folks, besides filing with the above, don?t forget the IRS!  (You KNOW they like going after money!!!)

It may not help, but it certainly wouldn?t hurt to fill the mailboxes at the White House with letters about these folks.  If the President wants to get involved with courts and everyday peoples? lives, then he needs to get involved in THIS!

TYPE OF CALL:
SCAM AND/OR EXTORTION BY A DISREPUTABLE LICENSED COLLECTION AGENCY

There are complaints about them all over the internet for harassing people that do not owe the debt, threatening to arrest people for a debt, telling people the only way they'll stop calling is to pay "court costs" on an alleged suit they filed, etc.  According to some of the MANY complaint pages and numbers they've called using, it seems they call about debts that are 5-10 years old, don't care if they were paid or not because they want money.  There are people who have fallen for this, and stated that they paid, and are STILL waiting on getting the documentation of the debt from them.  Of course, their story is that they sent it out ... yeah, right.
What's laughable is one page on their website that says they follow the law during collection attempts.  OBVIOUSLY, NOT!  THEY have an F rating with the FL BBB (see below).

By the way, it would seem to me that, IF you had a bad debt, it would show on your credit report (if still eligible to be reported).  IF you do have a bad debt on your credit report, you might want to consult an attorney and/or the original creditor, rather than these folks who obviously could care less about the law.  [I am NOT an attorney, nor do I profess to be one.  I am NOT dispensing ?legal advice,? simply giving my opinion!]

IF they were calling about a legitimate debt, they would NOT be calling to see if you'll be home all day on certain day to "deliver legal documents" or "subpeona."  A legit collector CANNOT discuss your bill with anyone else OR threaten to arrest you and/or send you to debtor's prison, etc.

Make yourself aware of the rules in the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT.--http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fdcpa/fdcpact.shtm  
Here is more info on it from the FTC Consumer information -- http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection
It's glaringly apparent that these folks enjoy breaking most of these rules.

SUGGESTIONS (again, I am NOT an attorney and am NOT attempting to dispense legal advice.  These are my PERSONAL suggestions)
1-IF you decide to answer one of their MANY calls from about 50 different telephone numbers (no, I?m not exaggerating), give them NO INFORMATION.  In fact, YOU MAKE THEM ANSWER QUESTIONS, and if they don?t, hang up on them!   I don?t know anything about spoofing/masking numbers, but there have been comments that they are VOIP?ing the majority of the numbers they?re calling from.  I do not doubt this, as a person said the number showing on her phone was that of the local police department.
2-Keep a running log of the date, time, telephone number, person calling and note of conversation to file with your complaints.  (Or, try to record the call, BUT they usually hang up when they?re told they?re being recorded.  ROFLOL, now how many LEGITIMATE collection agencies would do that?  NONE that I?ve ever heard!
3-Look up your state?s Statute of Limitations on debts that can be pursued in court (that you can still be sued for).  It seems to vary from 3-15years.
4-DO NOT allow them to intimidate or frighten you.  These idiots have even called the numbers attorneys, police officers, etc. with this scam.  Intelligent, they are NOT.  

USUAL PLOYS:
1-call friends, neighbors, relatives, employers, and you trying to intimidate you into paying JUST to make the calls stop (but, from looking online, they don?t stop?they just demand more). ? Ask these folks to also keep a log of the calls, give them this internet page to check.  Ask them to do a search for ANY of these company names.  They?ll soon realize it that these people are nothing but SCAMMERS.
2-??have important legal documents (or summons) to deliver, will you be home ---(day) from 8:30 to 4:30 to accept it??
3-?There?s a warrant out for your arrest UNLESS you send us $xxx TODAY?  -- they seem to prefer asking for the ?Green Dot? prepaid card and want you to call back with the numbers on back ? harder to trace where to $ goes, apparently.

hmmm.... Considering that pay scale was ELIMINATED in 1978, I seriously DOUBT your post.  But, thanks for posing as a FEDERAL employee!  I'm sure the real feds can find out who you are!

Besides, WHAT federal agency is going to put that kind of information "we are working on this case, soon they will be prosecuted" out? especially on the internet, and tip off these low-life snake-belly scumbags?

GET REAL, fool!

Is now (786) 358-5269, if you have received call from this number please report to the Attorney Generals Office for Delaware also.  I have done both but need more people to report them so we can get them caught!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi received your email regarding debt collection calls you are receiving from (786) 358-5269. Attorney General Bondi asked that I respond.

We appreciate you taking the time to share this information with our office. Please understand that you cannot be arrested for failing to pay a debt, and you should not let such threats scare or intimidate you into making a payment without first verifying the legitimacy of the alleged debt. We urge you to review the consumer alerts below for information about common debt collection scams, and important tips on how you may validate an alleged debt:

One common way scam artists take advantage of unsuspecting consumers is by "phishing" for personal information, such as bank account numbers, Social Security numbers, passwords, or other sensitive data. Criminals will claim to represent a legitimate corporation or government agency and even pose as attorneys and law enforcement officers. Another red flag common to many scams is a demand for an advance payment by cashier's check, wire transfer (for example, Western Union or MoneyGram) or more recently "MoneyPak" or Green Dot. Please review the links below for information about wire fraud schemes, and tips on reporting phone scams:

However, if you believe the company in question may be a LICENSED (legitimate) collection agency, please contact the Office of Financial Regulation (OFR) to alert that agency about your concerns. The OFR licenses collection agencies and administers provisions of both the Consumer and Commercial Collection Practices Acts. You may reach the OFR directly by calling (850) 487-9687. You may file an online complaint at the agency's website:

Just as I expected, nobody showed up at my house yesterday. Called them back last night and was told they were there but nobody answered the door. I sat on my porch in the beautiful 70 degree weather enjoying my day off from work and nobody showed up at my door. They will try again tomorrow (which is today). When I asked if they wanted my work address I was told the "officer" can only deliver documents to my house. Yeah right.

Scare tactics are the oldest trick in the book for collections.

Just spoke to a lady At GSA Management and she asked me to verify the last 4 of my SS#. I told her if you have it then you can give it to me and she said by law we cant do that. I told her no way am I giving you the SS# over the phone. She told me my "case" is in the Civil Division and an officer will be at my house Monday from 9-4p to serve me. I called back and asked why a police officer will be serving civil documents and she said "I never said Police Officer, I said Officer", when I asked what that means she said it can mean an array of things & there is no need for me to call back and hung up.

Of course I work in collections so I know the scam routines. I'll bet you on Monday from 9a-4p no "Officer" will be at my house. When I call them back on Monday they are going to tell me, they were there but nobody answered the door even though my wife will be there.

Once again. same call from this number . Linked numbers are 213-260-9483 and 804-554-1032 Same scam. I do not understand why the repeated reports to AG, FBI and other agencies do not stop these people. The DO NOT CALL list is useless. I use caller ID so I'm prepared. but it still is a work interruption.

Some idiot girl calls from 302-394-9172 almost every week with a different name saying they will deliver legal docs in the am or on Monday. THIS IS A ANOTHER SCAM PEOPLE. PLEASE GIVE NO MONEY OR INFORMATION!!!!  So so so many scams going on and people will rip you off fast and do not care!  I told this girl this was a scam and not to call back. well, she will anyway.. caller ID is great. National do not call list is a JOKE!!!!!!!

This place has called twice in the past two days after telling them that the person they have "legal documents" for doesn't live here nor is he associated with this phone number - Idiots.  I told them to take the number off the records and they said "Thank you and have a nice day." ?!?!?  WTF?  Can't this place be shut down???

Hi Bella
I have also been asking the same question as to how our  Government lets this happen .I have been told the FBI is involved, so hopefully something will help.  These ppl have gone too far, I told one person that I had contacted the AG office , "she said so, that does not scare me "

These ppl have been calling me for at least a year or more.  They have used deragatory language and recently said he would "shoot my dog", could not believe this. . I have complained to FTC,  A G office, and State Banking.   I have contacted a few lawyers also .

Michele the best to deal with these people is to, give them the nearest sheriff's office... Tell them you can be contacted at the number without telling who they are calling.

These pople need to be stopped!! My question is how do they get neighbors, parents, and friends phone numbers to contact people. My phone number has been changed recently and they still contacted me for my daughter and my daughter doesn't even live with me hasn't lived with me for years. How do we stop them?

I have been called 12 times by this 302-394-9172 number and when I ask what are the legal papers and they said we cannot give that information out over the phone. I have a step-dad who is a retired police officer talk to them and their response was OOOO I am so scared of you what are you going to do you are a washed up has been. At this point it is considered harassment.

I have been getting calls from different numbers. They ask me for my address and all. They was trying to say I had a loan out that was back in 2009. They was telling me the FBI was going to come get me. They wanted my bank account number. They was trying to say I owe $600.00

Who are these people that keep calling? I don't even answer as I don't know anyone from that area code. I will never answer even though they call several times a week. They are wasting their time as well as mine. I don't owe anyone money and never have had an upaid debt which is what the people on the Internet say these calls are all about. Please send a cruise missle out to their whereabouts. What a useless existence of this (business?).

I received a call from this number today, telling me that I was going to be served a legal notice tomorrow between the hours of 9am-4pm and would I be home.  I was then asked to contact 888-983-5404 and given a case number to refer to.  I called and a woman saying she was with GSA Management, Civil Division asked if I would confirm whether or not I was the person in question.  I asked where they were located and she said Charleston, SC.  I told her the person in question did not exist at my phone number and hung up on her.  How can the government allow these idiots to stay in business?

There's no way you are actually dumb enough to pay an obvious scam TWICE, right? ? ?

I have received a call from phone # 302-394-9172, stating that they will be serving me with civil legal documents. The caller could not give me any information on the legal documents and where they were coming from.  She gave me a numbert to call, 888-983-5404.  They stated they were calling on behalf of a pay day loan and they represent Stern Recovery.  They said if they take this to court, I would have to pay over $2000 but if I settled today, I would only have to pay $642 with a credit card.  First of all, I had this same call about 4 years ago and they threatened me so bad I paid them $500 but I wired the money to them.  Not even thinking that this was a scam.  

Call the number back the next day, the phone was disconnected.  I paid it because they told me I would be arrested in 24 hrs.  Not even knowing anything about this pay daiy loan, I did not want to go to jail so I paid it.  This needs to stop and taking people's money..How do you put an end to this?

They Call leaves no message and when i return the call no answer.

Scammer for sure. Telling my parents in another state they are going to sevre papers. Return call does not work. It does receive text. I texted them some nice words of leave me the hell alone.

I keep getting calls from the number they said if I give bank info they would stop calling yeah right there crazy I am not giving any info for my idenity to be stolen!!!

calls all hours of the night, annoying.

My daughter has been receiving calls from this number for several months now. They seem to have started when we purchased her a smartphone. I don't know if that has anything to do with it but the easiest solution for us was just to block the number. It is very unprofessional and just plain stupid to call a teenage girl and insist she has ten years worth of credit card debt.

they keep calling doing same to as everyone else. Once I said I work for FBI and going to look into company they said forget it and hung up on me. lol CAN U SAY SCAMS!!!!! ARRRRR

The first time they called I told them I didn't know the person & they said they would remove my number. They've called back 6 times, but they aren't smart enough to figure out that I have been playing them. I try to see how long I can keep them on the line, use different accents & feed them a lot of BS.

I recieved many calls from an anonymous organization asking to talk to someone else about an appointment to be served a legal Today I said I would not forward anything to someone else.  They said that they would continue to call me then.
    I have been harassed by this scam for months.

Receiving daily calls now from this outfit. I have caller id set on this number and two related numbers as "scam" I just let it ring. Why waste my cell phone minutes? I'm keeping documentation so that the TEXAS AG can file charges. Report! Report! Report!
