Thanks for the info.
Everyone should do their due diligence prior to giving out their bank acct or their credit card numbers. Now, even though the guy who called 'Investigator Jordan', sounded very believable, I know that I have nothing to worry about, so I decided to NOT wait for them to call back & blocked all private/unknown number using the app MN - Mr. Number. Its free, & it works!!! This morning a blocked number tried to come thru and it blocked them. I'm sure that it was them.
Be careful out there guys! Its not safe!

You cannot be "served" via phone, fax or email.   This is a scam operation.  Per the FDCPA, you should not pay any caller who refuses to mail - do not accept email or fax - proof of debt/proof that they have the legal right to collect said debt.  Refusal to mail this documentation within five days of their first call is a violation of federal law.  Misrepresenting themselves as police, "investigators", and giving you a fake docket number are also violations of federal law.

Follow the steps in what you need to know. A legitimate debt collector agency should not have a problem with giving you a real business name and address you can google and verify via google street view, BBB etc.

And folks should consider looking at maybe getting call blocking device or phone....you can Google them and many are around $60 or so.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll be better prepared to deal with them when they call me. By any chance, what number did they call you from? (855) 328-9767. Investigator Jordan called this afternoon & left that number along with a "case docket number."  
My gosh! These scammers will stop at nothing!! smh

I received a call today from an unknown number, so I forwarded it to vm. Later on, I checked my vm & it was from an Investigator Jordan stating that I have a complaint against me for check fraud, with a docket # to appear in court. He also said that I had 24 hours to respond & cosider myself served. I called back & got a voicemail, saying the name "Eastern Division." Of course, the first thing I thought of was "who the hell wouild complain about me?" I mean, I know a have some debts, but nothing that severe, esp check fraud!!!!! Also, what court clerk would contact a defendant over the phone & from a blocked number? I've been served before, & it is always done in person. I guess i'll have to wait & see if they call back, since I left a voicemail.
By any chance, did this Investigator Parker person ever call you back?

You're just mad cuz you're no good as a shill.

You are just mad cuz your fat a** got fired lol

This is a illegal debt collection agency, they use police radios and use phone numbers from your county to FaKE call you from the sheriffs office or clerks office thats the number that shows up but they are sitting in a office at536 west 3rd st in jamestown ny there are NO investigators in your countys its all a LiE all THREATS they are a office of 8-10 people passing calls to eachother NEVER PAY THEM it doesnt go toward anything but their own pockets your bills are never paid they will just keep your money and it will never be removed from your credit report

I received a call like that also. He said that his name is investigator Parker and I had a payday loan and if I didn't give him a call within 24 hours that he was going to prosecute me.  The loan amount that I had to pay back was $500 and stated that I need to pay $250 to stop all legal actions against me. He said that he would send me an email with all my information on it that I had paid. I never received an email so I looked up the so called company that took my money and I saw all these different complaints and he told them the same thing. He called me from several different number. There was a 716-338-0077, 855-328-9767, 540-483-3036 and 315-515-4708. I called all of those numbers and it goes to voicemail and he never returns the calls.

So I'm a victim too is there anyway we clean get r money back they got me for $1220 f****ng b*****d

So about 3 weeks ago I recieved a call from a poser saying they wanted to collect a debt for an online payday loan that I took out years ago? Mind you I was driving and working so I was wrong on my part for not being mindful and thinking about it first. The guy told me that I was going to be sued, sent to jail and be served papers by "maricopa county sheriff dept". at my job, all i was thinking was oh my god I cant have them come to my job I work in social services how bad would they look right? So he tells me that I can set up payment arrangements but they needed my debit or credit card information. So again not being mindful I set up the arrangements because all I was thinking of is I cant go to jail I will loose my job ETC......So I gave the guy my debit card number and he set up payments for 1/30/2012 and 2/2/82012. for 255.00 each. So I asked him if he could email me some records indicating that I owe this money, in which they never did. So I go to my bank today after my account was debited 255.00 and I was curious the name of the agency because I wanted to call them to get my documents prooving that I owed this money, need less to say it showed up as Northwestern Agency LLC in New york. however no contact number. So I sat down and processed the conversation that I had with the guy that notified me and one thing that stood out was that he said that he had an IP address from the computer were the payday loan was applied for and he blurted off my home address at that time however now that I think about it I didnt have a computer during the time I was at the residence he blurted out. He also said that I would be charged for internet fraud and some other weird stuff but like I said I was driving and working not thinking of it. So I got on the internet and looked up information on this so called agency, and found that I could of been scammed just by reading some similar stories. So I had my bank stop process and close the account and now they are investigating this agency because I showed them documents that this agency could be fraudulent. If I owe money then I will pay but I want to see proove. I am going to contact the police in New york were this agency is supposably located and file a report. I learned never to trust people and to always get documentation prior to agreeing to pay something. God knows who else I paid something too that I didnt have too. Another learning experience I guess.......

call saying they were investigators and if i do not pay my debt a warrant for my arrest. they were posing as detectives and calling everybody in my family which i do not know how they got their numbers and harassing them to get intouch with me or i will be arrested.
