Got a call from these people and needless to say that they pulled the same crap with me!! In fact they told me that they were actually part of the FEDERAL govt!!!! I don't know but if they are claiming that they ate calling to let you know about pending legal action they shouldnt be allowed to falsely represent who they are. I am no lawyer but they are not the DA's office. They called from a 516 number which is out of Long Island but Jason Warner......yeah right!!! Insisted they were in Manhattan.  Why can they get away with this????

I actually ran across this site researching the telephone number 646-543-0261.  I received a call from "Sherman" about a "legal case". I asked him about the case and he told me that he was calling from "D.C.A. Law Firm".  He gave me the address of 42 Broad Way, 5th Floor, NY, NY 10004 and a "case number".  I asked repeatedly what the case involved and he said an "unpaid pay-day loan".  I've never taken out any pay-day loans and shouldn't receive these calls at my employer.  I asked for the attorney in the office and he transferred me to "Pete Hoffman" who identified himself as the "Sr. Legal Officer", and said this matter was "really, really urgent". Strange verbage from the Sr Legal Officer is what I thought.  He told me that the case would be downloaded on Monday.  I asked continually about the case and what "downloaded" meant.  He would not give any clear explanations and finally he got frustrated and hung up on me.  I was actually trying to locate the actual business address of record etc and found this site.  Sounds like the same people to me.  This is definitely a scam, beware.  Should you find additional info please post it.

I had recieved a call from this number about 5 times almost a year ago or more.. and it freaked me out.. i had filled out stuff for a payday loan at one time but never actually got one bc i decided not to do it.. but of course they got all my information. I called the number back to see what this was about bc i have no loans ( except my home that i have never missed a payment) and no medical bills as i have insurance. I asked them what it was about and they wouldnt tell me, i couldnt understand what the guy was saying at all. Told him that i would need to see something in writing whether it was in the mail or by fax. I said you can fax something to me at work. He said where i worked and asked if that was right i said i wasnt going to answer that and he hung up on me. First off in any collection matters you have to give the FDCPA , i work at an attorneys office and i know this. Then i didnt hear from them at all in a whole year until yesterday this Kathleen Walker decided to call me on number 0000 on my cell phone. of course i didnt answer but she left a message a very rude one saying this message was extemely time sensitive, that i should not disreguard this message. Either me or my attorney of record needed to call her back immediatly. The she said best of luck to you at the end real rude. Ive seriously considered changing my number... i will never fill out any on-line anything with important information unless it is for school.

I received a call from a "Kathleen Walker" stating I better return her call or "she could only give me best wishes as the circumstances unfold on me." This freaked me out so I called the number and got a "Justin Brookes(?)" who was very rude and stated they were going to make an example out of me for stealing from thier company. After continuously asking when and who the loan is through, he kept stating I would find out in the paperwork I would receive after the courts were notified. I do take out payday loans but I never steal from anyone as he was insisting. They were threatening my job and good name. This has to be a scam as there was never any previous attempts to contact me if any money was owed. PLEASE BEWARE & HELP IF YOU CAN.

A client called me panicked that she was going to go to jail after receiving a call from this number.  I called; pretending to be family.  I'm fairly certain this is a scam as well, and my lawfirm practices collection law.  Few of the proper "Fair Debt Collections Practices Act" safeguards are in place, such as warnings that the call would be recorded and/or used against you, etc., etc.  They also freely discussed her matter with me without checking authenticity or warning against privacy concerns (another red flag to me).  They threatened some sort of goofy criminal charges for violations of "federal banking regulations" because supposedly my client's bank would not authorize them to retrieve funds they allegedly inserted into her account (she has no recollection of taking money from these cats).  Last time I checked, it was not a federal crime to have insufficient funds in one's banking account.  They refused to fax documentation so I could authenticate the loan (another red flag to me), instead insisting I could review the paperwork when the charges were filed and she was sued.  Again....I'm fairly certain these are scammer....BEWARE.

This number called me mutilple time send it into voicemail. Finally they left a message that this was time sensitive and needed a phone call back asap. I believe they name of the person that supposedly that message in voicemail was a Kathleen Walker( but not sure, because it was very broken english) I did call back and got people that could barely speak any english at all. They transferred me to a supervisor supposedly and I tried asking them mutilple times what this call was in reference to and they want my account information for somethiing it sounded like bank account info. I told them i need to know what this was in reference to before i gave them any info at all & they at this point got very ignorant with me and hung up. Tried calling this number back and also using caller id block and they either hung up, all circuits are busy, or didn't answer at all. I called my cell phone provider and they had very little info and were only able to tell me the number was out of NY and I asked them if there was anyway at all if I could check this number and the rep for cell phone provider told me to google.com it and that how i got to here.

I received a call from this number at work.  Fortunately, our receptionist forwards any calls that are clearly not client calls directly to voicemail.  I could not tell you if the man (Eric Jones, yeah right...) had an Indian accent or if it was from somewhere else, but I can certainly say that the manner of speaking DID make him sound like a robot.  I also had great difficulty understanding specifically what he was saying, although he did say he needed to hear from me or my attorney of record (???) or all he can do is wish me good luck."  Yes, I have taken out some payday loans in the past, but I wouldn't even be able to tell you which one this could be related to.  All were in my own state.  I have no idea who this Eric Jones is actually affiliated with.  But he won't be hearing from me or my "attorney of record," that's for certain.

Caller asked for my husband and I informed her that he was not with me at the moment. She asked me if I could give him a message. Gave me this number to call back and said her name was Kathleen Walker. She didn't sound like an american or irish person (considering the name). I asked her who she was with and she replied "Department of Corporate Affairs". The wole time she was talking, I could heard someone coaching her in the background. Would not tell me what this was concerning

man named Robert Foster called from this number asking for me. He said I had some business with him from my last job.  My wife told him I didn't work there anymore and he said "sorry to hear about that".  I have no idea what this call was about so I googled it and found this.

i received a call while at work trying to tell me I had to be in court the next day. I immediately looked at my caller ID and saw it as 0000. I then asked for a call back # and the name of his business. I told him I would not talk to him and hung up. I then searched for info on this 'company' and verified what I already knew - this IS a scam!!!!!

They called threatening me- said that I owe around $300-$400, back in 2009-2010.  As of right now, we're going to sue and file a lawsuit against you.  He went on to say that with federal charges and interest the amount would be $1027.  And he even gave me and a case number to file with the State.  

He went on to try to cut me a deal.  And even asked me for my credit card number and driver's license number.

PLEASE READ TO AVOID THE HARASSMENT AND ANXIETY THESE FRAUDULENT PEOPLE WILL MAKE YOU GO THROUGH ... YOU ARE NOT GOING TO JAIL! YOU ARE NOT GETTING SUBPOENAED! YOU DO NOT HAVE CHECK THEFT, FRAUD, OR JUDGEMENTS AGAINST YOU!! YOU DO NOT HAVE TO APPEAR IN COURT TOMORROW MORNING! YOU DO NOT OWE THESE DEBTS AND YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PAY THESE F****RS A DIME!! THEY ARE FAKE F****NG INDIANS ON A DIALER FROM TIMBUCKTWO WHO ARE NOTHING MORE THAN EXTORSIONISTS WITH A GOOD INTIMIDATING SCRIPT IN FRONT OF THEM!! I AM HEATED!! READ MY STORY SO YOU CAN HAVE PEACE OF MIND AND FILE A CEASE AND DESIST IMMEDIATELY AGAINST THESE A***OLES!!!!

My mom received a very harassing message today at her place of work from a "Mr. Mark Lewis" that clearly was of Indian ethnicity and did his very best to imitate an American; which made him sound like nothing less than a robot. After his very vicious threat of "good luck with what's coming to you" I called the number back 347.566.4240 from my cell phone and another Indian answered. What was odd is that I at first called private (dialed *67) and I got an error message that said "the MOBILE number you are dialing cannot accept private calls" - that should have been my first indicator that these people were no more real than their made up American names.

I DEMANDED to speak to this Mark Lewis character numerous times after calling and hanging up and calling back and yelling and hanging up again. Finally I demanded to know who these people were, where they were calling from, what their legal registered address is so I could make sure they were not full of s***, and they told me the following: Department of Corporate Affairs, registered address: 42 Broadway New York, NY 10004. So I hung up, and looked them up immediately to see what they were all about.

Come to find out, that is the legal registered address to the NYS Department of Corporate Affairs, and they deal with everything they just threatened me about! Fraud, check theft, etc. Now maybe I wouldn't have been so paranoid if I didn't know for a fact that I did take out a payday loan with this Advance Cash America company they told me this was about .... but I did! And I tried to work with those people for a year to settle it, and they never met my requests for documents in writing to settle it! So it went away, and I haven't heard a peep from any collector regarding the lousy $140 debt for over a year now. So all of a sudden they want to threaten me and say that I need to be in court and they are red flagging my SS# over this ??? This makes absolutely no LOGICAL sense!!! However, they did have my EMOTIONAL sense tied into pieces ..... I talked to these f****ng con artists for nearly 45 minutes trying to work out some payment plan with them and they demanded I pay $1,027 dollars within the HOUR!!! Otherwise I would have to pay $5,478 dollars at court! I said I was away on vacation and had no access to my check cards nor checkbook and that was the end of it they basically said I was going to be executed at 7am!! FINALLY....I tried to plead my way back into it and agreed to send them the $1,027 to avoid these legal issues.... and finally, after I hung up and said I would fax in the written authorization they made me write VERBATUM - along with MY drivers license!!! I checked one more time online for the number and was GOD SENT to this site. The sick part about this whole thing is, that they were able to manipulate me- a grown man, whose actually in the banking industry and finance world and knows how 99% of this nonsense works to begin with. That's why I'm trying to help those who are less educated on the finance system and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not fall for their DEMON TRAPS!! Do not give them ANY of your information period!!!!
