just checked message from same caller at work. another guy with a foreign accent did this just a couple of weeks ago at home and work.
at home - I called the number he left every few minutes and started annoying that person and they finally stopped.

same thing to me to for the past two days they've been calling me like crazy so when i called back the guy answered and said that he would f*** me over the phone and hang up so i kept calling back and he wouldn't answer. I truly don't believe that a debt collector would be rude like that

Received a call for one of my employees from a person with a very difficult accent stating he was calling from the Law Office of Cyber Crime Deletion and identified himself as Douglas Crown. He also requested that the employee or attorney return the call to 408-701-9789 immediatly regarding to a "legal case filed under your social". Area code 408 is used in the Santa Clara County/San Joese California area.

I got the same call from some one named kevin foster saying that I took out a loan and I owed so much money. He called someone else that I may have listed on an application that I applied on a loan on computer but I have not taken out a loan or anything

| Theresa 2010-07-22 17:43:28 Debt Collector |
I got a call at my place of employment and just like the listings above was told I was being charged with 3 counts and was read an affadavit of some sort. I was also told that n officer of the court would be serving a summons at my home on 7/23/10 at 11:00 am and that I would have to go to court with a potential cost of 5484.87 for all legal fees OR I could settle today only with 501.00. I asked for more information and a mailing address and was refused. The caller first left a message on my recorded line and identified himself as "Daniel Brown" and part of the "cybercrime unit". I was asked to have my attorney call back. I dialed the number listed above and the same Indian accented voice answered and I was told his name was James Connor and he was Mr. Brown's supervisor. I felt so humiliated as he read the affadavit. I am a hardworking single mother and have done my best in the past years. This was just terrifying and I felt very threatened. I hope these mean-spirited, disgusting dirtbags are shut down.
| Teresa 2010-07-16 17:51:32 Unknown |
same phone calls everyone should report them to all agencies, if enough of us report maybe the will be caught and prosacuted. They are calling my work over and over threating me
| R Eidson 2010-07-16 17:19:34 Debt Collector |
Was told to call back the number listed above. Was told this was final warning message, that I or my attorney needed to call and ask for Robert Conner's. Said the company was DeSibo Crime Department and then said they wish me Good Luck...Guess no more doing things on the internet.
| R Eidson 2010-07-16 17:14:37 Unknown |
Yep they called me this morning and his name was Robert Connors...Never heard of the company but the numbers were 1-916-365-0000 and was told to call back 408-701-9789... Not calling back....
| keesha 2010-07-15 16:30:36 Unknown |
They have been doing the same thing too me for months now. What the F***!!!
| HH 2010-07-15 15:05:52 Prank Call |
I've put in written complaints to the FCC and the FBI as well as my local police as these calls have been going on since Jan.Always with "You will be arrested at your work tomorrow" or we will go to court tomorrow or I will call your employer..they have or your family..they have,,, but no one gives them the time of day and neither should any of you.I'm just disgusted with these scammers and their relentlessness.They're like hungry dogs needing a bone.
| marge 2010-07-14 15:13:15 Unknown |
It seems like they are scam artist with always an Indian accent and are quite nasty. Something really has to be done about this. They have called my place of work and left messages. I have filed numerous complaints. You should as well.
| justagirl 2010-07-13 19:19:25 Unknown |
Yep, they've gotten me and my husband as well. Have been getting the (laughable) threatening calls for around a month now. Have to say, it's getting pretty comical with the threats. My husband and I have repeatedly told them that we know they are a scam and to stop calling but it seems the calls are getting more frequent instead of stopping.
Here are other names and numbers from these same people:
Lance Morris (323) 319-2650
James Garner (323) 928-9852
(lady) Williams (408) 701-9789
I have reported them to the FBI and plan on making more reports with the agencies listed above. Other than that I don't know what to do.
| grassrox 2010-07-13 19:13:50 Prank Call |
Ok, I have just deleted 9 messages from these, uh, people! I couldn't understand the context of the message, and the # was anonymous, but in the message they left a return # (408-701-9789). So, googled the # and here we are. Wanna have some fun w/these folks? Do as I did, call them and let them "work on you" for about an hour. Pretend to be frightened and intimidated (it is hilarious, trust me) and pretend to start to give your information then falter at the last second, make them elevate their intimidation tactics to the next level and so on. I had the lady literally screaming at and belittling me. I got 36 minutes of pure enjoyment!! When I finally couldn't hold it in anymore I burst out laughing (I think at first the woman thought I was crying, she softened her tone & was consoling me?)! Anyway, after about 5 minutes she finally caught on to my sarcasm and hung up.
I called back and explained we were having so much fun, why hang up? She wanted to go through the whole thing again! Incredible...
| samantha 2010-07-12 23:56:32 Unknown |
pretty much the same for me. I also a few weeks before got calls from another number claiming to be a law and investigation dept. Same people. This time he told me he was going to come to my house to serve me and I had to be alone... kinda creepy. I tried to file a report but was told I can't because they never physically threatened me. I don't even know where to go with all this.

From Lamet's post:
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:

Consumer Alert: Attorney General warns Kansans of debt collection scam
January 29, 2010 -- Attorney General Steve Six is cautioning Kansas consumers about telephone calls from apparent fake debt collectors who are impersonating law enforcement officers in an effort to extort money from consumers. Consumers are warned to not submit payments to these fraudulent debt collectors.
When calling, the scammers most often state they are attempting to collect a debt related to an internet payday loan obtained by the consumer, but which the consumer never repaid. Consumers state they have never obtained such a loan or paid off the loan years ago. The scam artists have most recently identified themselves as ACS, National Affidavit Processing Department and United Financial Crime Division, but may use additional phony names. It appears the phone numbers used by the scammers are ?spoofed? numbers, so that the number appearing on a consumer?s caller ID is not the actual number of where the call originated. It appears the calls in question may be originating from outside the United States.
When questioned, the individual calling refuses to disclose the full name or address of the collection agency they claim to represent. These scammers have been able to provide consumers with identifying information, such as the consumer?s social security number, home address, e-mail address, names of family members and the consumer?s computer IP address. Since the callers are able to provide valid personal information, consumers may become confused and believe they are being contacted in regard to a legitimate debt.
If the initial debt collection scam is unsuccessful, consumers have been re-contacted months later with the scammers posing as law enforcement officers or officers of the court. Typically, the consumer is threatened with arrest for fraud or some other fictitious crime unless the consumer agrees to immediately wire money via Western Union. The fictitious officers strive to frighten and confuse consumers into compliance by using legal sounding terms such as ?We?re filing an affidavit against you? or by stating a lawsuit has been or is in the process of being filed against the consumer.
A hallmark of each scam has been calling consumers repeatedly at their place of employment. This scam hit home when an employee of the Kansas Attorney General?s Office was repeatedly called both on her cell phone and at work. Despite the employee?s repeated verbal disputes, the caller refused to provide any identifying information to allow her to send a written dispute. The scammer also continued to call her numerous times a day regarding a payday loan she denied obtaining. Two months later, she was again contacted by telephone by an individual identifying himself as an ?officer?.
?I denied owing the debt and refused to pay without being provided validation of the debt. I was then told, ?If that?s the case, I will have local law enforcement come to your place of business and drag you out kicking and screaming?,? stated the employee.
?It is important for consumers to know their rights under the law,? Attorney General Six said. ?If a consumer is receiving calls from a debt collection company and believe it is a scam, I encourage them to contact our office immediately.?
Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), collectors are required to send consumers a written notice within five days of the initial contact. The notification should contain information such as the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed and a statement informing the consumer they have thirty days to contact the debtor in writing to dispute the debt or request validation of the debt. In addition, legitimate debt collectors are prohibited by the FDCPA from making false or misleading representations, such as the consumer has committed a crime, implying nonpayment will result in the consumer?s arrest, or using the threat of violence.
More information is available on the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act at http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre27.pdf.
To register a complaint with the Kansas Attorney General?s Consumer Protection Division, call 1(800) 432-2310 or visit www.ksag.org.

Just got a call at my WORK from 408-701-9789, 0000 and 801-449-8037. This guy with a thick accent told me there were 3 alligations against me and that he was sending local law enforcement to pick me up. I asked him where he was located and he said he was in Los Angeles, CA. I could tell it was a Call Center, as I could hear a female in the background yelling at someone else. When I told the guy I was calling the police to give them his number, he started yelling at me and threatening me. I reported it to the FTC and put my work number on the Do Not Call Registry.

This guy used to go by "Samuel Bishop" and "Nick Carter". Just threaten to murder him and see what he says. Its hilarious.

This person called my girlfriend demanding that either her or her attorney call him back. And if they did not then all he could do is wish her good luck. I will fly myself to Sunnyvale California and take care of this personally once the address results come back from this number. So all I can say is that I wish HIM good luck. He will need it when I get there. THAT IS A PROMISE.

I have received several disturbing threatening phone calls from this phone number and also from 0000- number which turns out to be the same person/place. How can we stop this person (s) from trying to scam people. Thank goodness, I checked the number out but I knew they were scam artist by the sounds in the background and his accent. Very scary, these people need to be stopped immediately.
