Just got this call, no message, any idea of who this is??

It's a scam. Google the number.  They said I owed money on a pay day loan I never got and that I was going to jail for money laundering unless I paid them right now.  I asked for the companies phone number and he wouldn't give it to me. He said he will see me in court after I informed him of my rights. He goes by Mark Henry or Jack Cooper and has a very heavy accent.

I just got the exact same call!  I did not answer it the first two times; however, since the number kept calling I was concerned so I answered it.  That was a bad idea.  I hung up on the caller and now they are calling me about every 20 minutes!

just got a call from this guy with an accent and he called my best friend looking for me too he was telling me I had a loan from fast cash (which I never did) and that it was $300.00 now I owe them $9000.00 for lawyer fees and court fees and that the court date was tomorrow 4/2/10 I told him he was crazy and never call me again. The 1st time he called he didnt even leave a message but he knew my last 4 of my ssn # which is scary....

i got the same call from a guy saying that i owed money from a loan i didnt take out and he called my aunt and cousin saying i would have to deal with leagal matters concerning fraud

The same thing just happened to me. This place knew my information and said they gave me a loan for $300 and now they are suing me. I told them to go ahead because I have the copies of all my bank statements, I do even have checks. You all have never deposited money into my account and I never applied for a loan. Finding a way to report and sue these people.

These people are a scam and I have contacted representation on my own to prosecute them. Good luck to everyone else. When you try to contact this number you will not get an answer, it is always busy.

Does anybody else getting calls from this phone number?

I have been receiving these calls all week. The woman identifies herself as Amy White, but has a very thick Middle Eastern accident. First she called my mom and stated that she was from the California Law Dept. and that I had to call her back or I would be arrested. She then called my job and left a message at my job and on my cell stating that i must call back NOW or else she feels sorry for what would " fall upon me."

I got a phone call from 760-282-4216 this morning, they left a message stating that I was involved in a lawsuit and for me to call back. The weird thing is, my mother just received the same type of phone call the day before. I called the number back and someone with a middle eastern accent answered the phone saying "Law office of Jack Cooper". The guy knew what number I had called from, and was going to look up my info. I hung up, researched the phone number online and then determined that this was a scam. I am going to be reporting this to authorities and the local news stations. I advise everyone to do the same.

hello every one if u wanna know the reality of this whole case than i can let u know ok u just have to do is mail me ur name and the name of the fake officer that talked with u and also the number which u recieved
and my email address is sallu286@gmail.com
bye

received two calls for a colleague from this number- she has never heard of the name given (John Smith?)- heavy Indian-type accent

This also just happened to me. Unfortunatly I believed these people and faxed what they asked for!! But realized before I gave them money !!! I did report them to authorities! These people really upset me and now I am just mad. The person that contacted me was a Jack Cooper also.

I received a call from 415.200.0202 this morning saying that i owed money for a payday loan i NEVER took out and/or received and that unless i paid $780 IMMEDIATELY my case will be downloaded to the court in the morning and that i will be arrested at my place of employment, dragged to jail, etc.  I tried talking to this Indian male caller by the name of "Jack Cooper", explaining that I had no idea what he was referencing and if he could provide me with additional information, he started yelling at me and when i proceeded to ask him to not yell and provide me with information and/or proof of his claims, he turned me over to the head person (he did state a "title", but i forgot) and that person hung up the phone on me when i asked him for details.  To be absolute, I went and checked my bank account and statement and low and behold, i never rec'd a dime from these people they were "representing" (FASTCASH)...so, i called back and got "jack cooper" again.  When i asked him again for information on this company, Fastcash, that i supposedly received money from, he again refused to give it to me-not a name, telephone number, date of supposed deposit, NOTHING!. Instead, he started yelling and screaming at me, calling me a thief, telling me i am going to jail, that i will be dragged out of my workplace, and hung up the phone on me!?!.  I can tell you that it really upset me-the entire day.  I am glad i found this site. If anyone has any advise, please do post as I, as well as many other, would so appreciate your help.  Many Thanks!!!!!

I rec'd a call about 30 minutes ago at my job, from Someone by the name of Chris Woods and Ray Flock stating that there is a lawsuit against me from their client. When asked, what client, they stated FASTCASH LOAN,( which I have never heard of). They had the last four #'4's of my SS, my old bank name and my current address. states that they deposited $300 into my acct in 9/09, but I owe $5484.87 becuase I did not pay. They also siad that I would be arrested and have to come to CA for court. Well, I gave them a piece of my mind and told them what they could do with the debt. I have contacted a friend of mine , who is an attorney and he advised me to ignore them, but if they continue to call , he will hadle it. Also,please people, regardless of who can verify your info, always remember to verify it and have it in writing,althoguh folks can write up any type of document. but most people no who they owe. I am still about to contact my local law department..BE CAREFUL FROM THESE DUMMIES!!!

I have been getting these calls and just looked this site up. Thanks for letting me know the real story. From being in the repossession buss. I know that it is against the law for them to say they are a officer or anything like that. This is why they will not give out any info. They called my b/f phone asking for me and I have no idea how they got his number.

i recieved the same action the guy with a middle thick accent name kelvin, ray fleck, and alex. they stated i owe 300 from  loan. with the interest it is 459 if i did pay i will be going to court. told them i did have it. said i could pay 230 now and 230 on 4-9-10. i ask them to send me some paper work on this matter, kelvin said he couldn't. i would have to fax a letter stating i was sorry for not paying back the and send the money, but when you go against what they want they get mad think you going against their intellegence and hang the phone up on you.

I have recv. the same kind of call and in one day they called me 13 times, so after the third day I answered it and they begin to tell me that they had a case number for me to give to my attorney, and when I asked him what was going on he begin to ask me how long I planned on getting away with stealing money from this company and that they were going to file charges against me and I need to contact my probation officer and let him know, I had several felony charges pending, and when I begin to tell him I work for a Sheriffs Office and that I didnt have any idea that it was not paid he begin to ask me if I liked my job, and if I did he would settle out that I borrowed around 100.00 but with interest I owed 745.00, but he would be able to settle out at 425.00 if I would agree to make the payment right then over the phone. When I told him I did not have that kind of money and that how did I know they were not scamming people, he got mad and told me to remember it could of been a scam when Im sitting behind bars. when I asked him to send me some papers stating I owe this, he told me it was all a paperless loan and there is no paperwork to it, but to fax him a paper admitting I stoled the money but it was not on purpose and he would see what he could do to help me out of this jam. I told him I would have my attorney to contact them and he said dont worry about it we will just make sure you dont continue to get away with this and hung up. After hanging up I was very upset due to this is my job and could not have something like this to happen to me, I begin to search the number and found this site I would just like to thank you who ever started it!!! I am at ease now

Got a call from the 209-622-4581 number at least 5 times in the same day.  All witha heavy middle eastern accented female leaving a message for me or my "ATTORNEY" to contact them.  When I return called the number above, BUSY SIGNAL constantly.  Then a couple of days later, another call from the 415-200-0202 number and when I called it back the guy asnwered "SAS can I help you"--SCAMMERS!!

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.

OMG I just received a call from "Ray Fleck" from this phone number.. what a jack a**... He said I owed on a 300$ loan that was deposited into my BestBank account and that he was going to have me arrested. He left a voicemail on my sisters phone saying that if I did not call him back he would have her arrested too.. LOL... What an Idiot... So I cursed him out and hung up, called my bank and needless to say there was nothing deposited into my bank account except my direct deposit what a joker.. he recited all of my info too. my soc, my old address, and my bank info..
