I asked who was and "Alex" staed he was calling from Anderson Law Associates. I tried getting more info and he hung up. i guess I will wait for the papers to be served. I tried calling this moring and a woman answers with a thick indian accent and says hello and I ask for Alex and she hangs up.

I goot the call from (914) 205-8235.  Claimed he was from the Credit Bureau of New York City. (I did a websearch and this doesn't exist)
He gave the same info others had reported, Anderson Law Firm, 750.00, etc. And said I need to send a letter with my name, last 4 of SSN and credit card number.  

I asked why he had such a teribble phone- it was all echo.

Anyway, as I know this is a scam I kept asking questions.  He asked why I was asking so many questions and I told him it was for my report to the FBI.

He said the FBI worked for him.
HA

Getting the same calls, but they went as far as threatening to hang me, family and co-workers of mine. Filed with the FBI and FTC.

What is the number for the FBI? If we all came together I am sure we could bust these creeps. We have power in numbers.. They want my money, I want to see them come get it.. If you would please email me the number for the FBI. My email address is mikeyj1982@yahoo.com

I agree they did the same thing to me with asking for money; this has been going on for several months I just got to the the point I ignored them

Received a phone call today from 562-684-4999 today from a David Jones, whom does not speak very good English, can hardly understand him.  He wanted money today from me for a payday loan that I supposedly took out, and he said that I owed $750.00 or I would go to jail.  He has called me 6 times today at work.  He cannot and stated that he would not send me a hard copy of the documentation in regards to this matter, that all I had to do to clear it up is give him my checking account information.  Not happening, for on the 17th of June he called me 6 times at work, but gave me a different number to call and that number was 626-467-0164, and when I tried to call that number guess what, it came up as a voice mail that was full, never reached David Jones at that number again.  I have contacted the FBI, the Federal Trade Commission and my local police department.  This David Jones Stated he is with Anderson Law Firm out of California, he would not give me an address or any other information

Not sure who these folks are. I received a call message left on my voicemail telling me that I needed to call a person by the name of David Boston...I think...since the individual has such a bad linguistics..makes me wonder if this isn't a scam of some sort. Especially, when they did not say who they were? or why they were calling? Very suspicious indeed. Noticed that the number this person left was listed on this site which was 562-684-4999.

This is a scam! They called me today 35 times saying I had court in Cali for some loan i got over the net which in fact i never had any loan over the internet! This is a scam and please no one send them any money!

Some man called me today and say i owe money but then they hung up on me WTF

I also recieved a call from the same number, the number is listed to Anderson Law Firm, or at least that is what they call themselves, told me that bad things were going to happen to me if I did not return the call, had local police at my home to have them listen to message from these people who you are all right, they don't speak well...filed fraud alert with all three credit reports.  The message stated that I was going to be sued, due to a cash loan that was taken out...news to me...when I called the company with the police officer in the room, the man stated he could not be responsible for what was going to come down upon me if I did not supply or verify my social security number...Call is from Long Beach California. SCAM

Oh these people called me 32 times 2day and i called them back she hung up on me

This is really important they are people that does have your information to detail I recomend when they call ask questions till they tell you more info first get a hold of your general Office and report it with them cause it will lead you to identity theft in my case it has and they call from different numbers and names and when you call back they know who is calling right away I track one of this numbers and it was a cell phone number be really careful with this and don't let it get 2 far cause it will

I have the same problem right now and take it in big consideration this person are really mean and dangerus the first thing u want to do is contact the Federal Communication Commision and report the calls from and latter check all your accounts and get a hold of the General attorney office in you state and explain whats happening they will tell you what to do next

I have been receiving calls from 916 395 0000 since July 2010. The caller has a VERY thick accent claiming to be officer Richard Adams. Also received calls from Mike Anderson, and Julian Marshall, same thick accent claiming to be from Anderson and Law Association in California (562) 684-4999. These callers are harrassing, and to the point they curse me out. They even call my job and curse my manager and co-workers. They insist I have a loan with cash net; quick cash, claiming they are from Financial Criminal Investigation (FCI) and they made me an offer to settle and send $250.00 or go to court, I said lets go to court then he got angry, and started yelling "24 hours you go to jail" I replied, "ok". They have been reported by my employer to the attorney generals office. I ask the caller to please stop calling and send the allegations against me in writing, or course they hang up but keep calling. HELP!!!!! this is out of hand. about a week ago they called 34 times back to back. AGGRESSIVE

"attorney" angela anderson and her assistant dean jones along with several others have called me daily telling me i owed them $998. They would call me 10-12 times daily and threatened me with jail and 3 fraud charges. She offered her bar association number and yet i could not understand it.

THEY TRIED TO GET ME ALSO BUT I AM A COP AND THAT WAS A MISTAKE. SAID THAT I WOULD GO TO JAIL IN CALIFORNIA IF I DID NOT PAY A BILL. I DO NOT OWE ANYTHING BUT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A CIVIL MATTER ANYWAY NOT CRIMINAL. THEY ARE SCAM ARTISTS AND THEY WILL GET CAUGHT ONE DAY.

I also am a single mother of two girls and they told me that they are going to pick me up and take me to jail in California for a loan that I didn't even get or know about I am not even working right now so why would I get a loan in California I've never even been to California. We need to do something about this I believe this may be Idenity theft. My mom is going to call our local news station to expose this number.

HEY HOW R U THEY DID THE SAME WHY TOD SAID THAT I BORROW 350 INB JAN 2010 N I KNOW I DIDNT BC I HAD JUST GOT MY STUDENT LOAN ANYWAY WHEN U ALL DFOUND WHAT TO DO TO THEM PLEASE LET ME KNOW GOD  BLESS AND TAY STRONG HONEY FOR UR KIDSPLEAS CALL ME AT 2104980

Today I started receiving the same type of calls from this number.  The messages are the same as mentioned above, but now they are using the name, Betty Brown.  I am very thankful for all the previous posts because when I first heard the message left by them I was a little concerned but then I thought better do a little research before I return their call, and sure enough another scam.  So thank you all for all the valuable information.

I am getting calls from this number stating the same thing. What can I do? They are calling me at work and at home I don't know how they got me numbers?? I never recieved any type of loans. They are saying I got 3 criminal charges in California for bad check writing. I never been to Cali in my life. What can I do about these calls??

I just got a phone call today from "Anderson Law Firm" from "Dean Jones" First off all what person with broken accent is named Dean Jones.. He called and said I was being charged with violations of federal codes, check fraud, and theft by deception. Mind you it was from a company called easycash.com or something where I got loan from. I did do online loan applications I only rec'd loans from ABC payday loan and ACE So I pretty much already knew this wasn't right. He wanted me to write a letter with my credit card info on it to charge the $684.33 for my past due amount to settle out of court... Mind you I wrote the letter and left everything blank (no credit card info, nothing).. He told me to call back by 11;00 or I will have to go to court in California. MInd you I live in Maryland. Anyways, I continued to call this 5628644999 number and I got the address to the "so-called" company and nothing shows up. I also put the number in and it came up as a landline number.. from pacwest. or something. I called and Alex answers the phone.I asked to speak with an attorney (their all gone to court).. go figure! Do they really think people are just not going to know who we borrow money from or that we are just going to give our information to people we don't know over the phone. I closed my bank accounts and all.

hi all,

i linked a service to the phone number 562 684 4999 that's been calling w/all this nonsense...the company is called Pac-West telecomm...i called the phone @ 877-626-4325 and told them that their company's name is coming up when i did the reverse lookup for the phone number and i explained to her what was going on she told me to send them an email from the website from the http://www.pacwest.com/...click on the support tab @ the top of the page..it will then take you to the support page,,click on support on the left side of the page then the email link for Account Mgmt Support make sure to CC abuse@pacwest.com..in the subject line put the ph 562 684 4999..tell them whats been going on, you don't have to include your name @ all...they will in turn conatct the compan that gave the phone number out and let them know that their customer has been making harrassing phone calls...also list the date and times of the calls...i hope this works guys

Thanks

i received calls from this number all day long and messages following advising i would be sued if i don't return the call. he wished me blessings and all, and told me to call back w/my lawyers info...when i finally got someone on the phone w/the thickest accent and gave him my name and phone number, he asked me if i was i F*&^%$& my aunt!...i wish there was a way that we could find out who these ignorant persons are an have them arrested...or better yet i would like to pay them a visit!

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.

I RECIEVED A CALL FROM THIS NUMBER AS WELL. HE SAID HIS NAMBE WAS DAVIS BOSTON.HE HAD A VERY THICK ACCENT. HE SAID THAT I WAS BEING CHARGED WITH CRIMINAL FRAUD. HE WISHED GOD BLESSINGS AND SAID HAVE A NICE DAY.

they told me all the same crap that i have read on this web site.some one needs to put a stop to this mony scam i could not under stand half of what she was saying.

I received a message today from "David Boston" in very broken English, on my work phone, stating it was very time sensitive to call back today and something about may God bless me, etc.  I called back and spoke with "Alex" also in very broken English who read me an "affidavit"  saying I was being charged with three very serious criminal charges, including fraud.  He wanted the name of my lawyer - which of course I did not have because I did nothing wrong.  They were very convincing.  Stated I received a 300- from a company owned by Instacash.usa and had never paid it back. (I NEVER received a payday loan but I did fill out an application online several months ago when times were tough.)   To make a long story short they convinced me that if I paid over 1200- TODAY with a debit or credit card ONLY that no criminal charges would be filed and that they would not come "arrest me" at my place of work.  They even told me word for word what to write in a letter, giving "Julian Mitchell" my debit card info and authorization to process the amount and that I would not dispute the transaction in anyway.  I needed it notarized and faxed to them in ONE hour with a copy of my drivers license.  I really knew at that point that it was a scam.  I did check with my back of course and they said no deposit or request to They called me back in one hour and I let them know my friend with the State Attorneys Office said I needed any request in writing and that is when "Julian Mitchell" said "Fine I will have my team come get you" and hung up. I did notify the police who took a report but said unless I actually paid them, there was nothing they could do.  But that if someone did come to my house or work to call them for harassment complaint.  They were very good at what they do.

Also this entity is located in Long Beach, CA. (562) 864-4999.
