Received a call from this number the person would not leave a message with my secretary only that he needed me to call him back. I called back only to get a beep to leave a message. I did not leave a message. The caller identified himself as Mike Anderson a State Attorney from California. My daughter received the same type of call around this time last year. The caller stated that she had been named as part of an identity theft ring and they were giving her the opportunity to pay a settlement or she would be arrested. They provided her work address to really seem legit even provided a bogus ID number.

This number called me today and said I was under arrest about a loan. I never recieved a loan and he insisted that I had a warrent. Contacted the local pd and they told me about this scam.

i got a call on my job on 1 9 2013 at 645 am this man has a heavy accented he want 2 know do i have a attorneys  i say for what he say i was going 2 jail  but he never gave me no information on why he told me dont ask no question until he get through talk so i just got nother he then hung up   his name was mr smith

Got the same call today from a heavy accented Indian male who kept calling me even after I hung up on him.  He called back I inquired about the problem said he was calling about a lawsuit I told him sorry but I know who they are and that I had reported them to authorities already and he hung up.  Not more than 20mins later same guy calls back and I sent him to voicemail and he left a message, so being the Debt Collector that I am I called back to have some fun some guy answered said he was Mark Anderson and he was with the States Attorneys Office In New York I kept asking for answers all he kept saying was it was about a lawsuit I told him good luck with that and I guess he thought I was an idiot but there is no 415 area code in Cali (lived there) he said "Whatever" and hung up

i received a phone call at 6:45am from the number 415-483-2302...i did not answer the phone and a male with a strong accent left a threatening message stating that the call is time sensitive and that if i ignore the message then it will unfold into a legal situation.  i knew immediately the call had to have originated out of the US since debt collectors are not allowed to call that early in the morning.
thank you for posting this information!

i just got a call from this same number telling me if i dont have my attorney call them at this same number my file will be downloaded into the courts???? all India speaking people from an obvious call center - what a fraud!!!!

This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information from unscrupulous websites like the one you may have filled out an application with, and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.

ABC News released an investigative report on this scam in June. The FTC has indicted one of its ringleaders for criminal fraud:
