I got similar call from 214-416-0423.
I knew this is a fraud. so I kept talking so he finally gave up.

Today I received a call from the Bureau of Criminal Financial Investigative Firm from a "Bruce Payne" at my work place. When I asked for information abut the money owed he said that he could not tell me as I should already know.  However he then gave me to the Office Manage a man called "Jack Thomas. This gentleman then proceeded to give some info.  However he would not tell me when the money was deposited into my account. All he said was that money that I supposedly took out was from a company called US Cash Advance. I have received calls over the past 4 months demanding the same thing.  Each time it was a different person, a different phone number & a different amount. I requested that they send me copies of the invoice requests. I did use a payday loan company at one time.  It was originally set up to come out of the account directly.  

I asked for copies of the documentation showing that I hade taken out the loans but said that they were not allowed to do that.  They also said that they would have a suit against my name and S.S #
and would have the law enforcement show up at my door. And also said "Good Luck"

I too have been receiving threatening messages made from a person identifying himself as Officer Kenneth Smith from Bureau of Criminal Investagation except the number he keeps calling me from is 347-504-0773, he keeps calling my work.  This person also has a very heavy Indian accent and has been and continues to be very rude.  How can I get him to stop or report him to someone?

Oh Please do not be intimidated by these people. They are idiots and nothing is true! They scammed my sister and now they keep calling pretending they are someone else. LOSERS!

Contact your local police and let them know about.


also contact the police where the area code is from. If they get enough calls maybe they will do something about it!!

The number doesn't come up on my phone, it says no data.  However, a guy called me today, and I could barely understand him, but I think he said his name was Nathan Brooks.  His Indian accent was very hard to understand.  I allowed him to talk to my answering machine, and the message says there are some criminal charges involving my social security number, then I picked up and told him to @%&*? off.  He said that he was calling from BCI, the Bureau of Criminal Investigations law department.  Are these the types of calls you're receiving?  The BCI is legitimate yet he wouldnt give me a state and no phone number appeared on my caller I D.  Any info would be appreciated.

Been getting calls from this number they accuse me of not paying back a  debt back and saying
I'm going to be arrested and held without bail. Couldn't understand name or much else. They are most certainly foreigners.

I have been getting several calls from different foreign people stating that they are calling to let me know that I have criminal chargs against my name and social security number. They are really scaring me to death. They are telling me that I need to turn myself in to the nearest law enforcement. I really do not know what else to do. I have asked for information on the debt and they will not give me any information just keep telling me I am going to jail. I have filed Chapter 13 and have forward them to my attorney. I just do not know what to do anymore it beginning to make me really angry.

I have been receiving threatening messages from an "officer Ray Martin" from Bureau of Criminal Investigation at #719-286-0497. He has a heavy Indian accent. He has been calling my work, which is a hospital, and my cell. He only wants me to verify my SS# and I refuse and he gets angry and shouts over me and threatens me with jail!! My Supervisor at work has even talked to him and told him to stop calling me there but it hasn't helped. He is very rude and has called be 10 times in 5 minutes.I also had a bogus check go through my checking account and had to close out my account I have had for almost 8 years!! How is he getting our information and what makes him or them STOP? This is crazy and why can he not be tracked down?

My son received a call on his cell phone from a male stating he is Officer Roger Lawson with the Bureau of Criminal Investigations.  I then received a call from the same subject, with a very heavy indian accent and completely broken and incorrect grammar, stating to immediately call him back regarding "serious allegations" regarding my adult daughter.  I work in law enforcement and told my son to not call them back, and if they call him again let them know he is filing harrassment charges if they call again. Although I can't confirm they are a debt collector, I am really concerned that some people will fall for their aggressive tactics and give out their information.

I received a called today at 10:45 asking about case Jeanette he gave me a # 716-541-00 he said to ask for sheriff Danny Smith.I called the number and told him I didn't know the case and he sounded  
foreign.

My wife recieved a call from 716-541-0015 and the gentalman stated his name was Mike Johnson and that my wife owed $300 for advance that she never recieved. I asked the gentalman when was it given he stated I can't tell you that it would cost me my job. I got a print out from the bank then called the corporate office and found out that their was no deposit placed in my wife"s account.

I received a call from this number by someone named Angie Wilson saying that i have a criminal case on my social.. i never called the number back just checked the listing when i found these postungs.. the question is how did this agency get my number and whats funny is the number that showed up on the caller id is 0000 and they called like five times.and then left a message

My brother received a call from 716-541-0015 from someone with an accent who goes by the name "Brad Armstrong". He said that he works for BCS and that he  told my brother that he was trying to reach me and that it was very important. I've heard of BCI, but what is BCS? I listened to the message and it said that if I didn't respond, I could be locked up. He did not leave a badge number or anything, he told my brother that I had all the information and that it was urgent that I call him back. (What information?)
I'm not going to respond and they can kiss my "A". They all sound alike, but they have been calling my house and leaving messages, but they don't never leave there name and they sound like they are reading a script.

Left out caller is Officer Roger Gibson

This guy, an Indian Guy and lady at a call center are calling and threatening people;
telling them that they will come and pick them up and take them to jail .

He is very aggressive; and he does not provide any information.  He may say things
like will you call the Better Business Bureau; but I told him I am going to file charges for
harrassment if he calls again.

To all:  PLEASE DO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION.
They are running a SCAM Business.

A foreigner is calling me and also a friend of mine looking to reach me.  He told my friend he is with the Bureau of Criminal Investigation, but I'm certain this is a lie.  I have received calls similar to this in the past and have been told they are HIGHLY illegal debt collection practices.

I received a call from this "Officer Marie Phyllis" Badge 78645 from the Bureau of Criminal Investigations in New York. My question is, how can you work for any company or state agency and can barely speak understandable english.

After I just Googled this phone number that she left and called me back from and read what these readers just posted, I will be calling authorities and filing charges against this person for calling and harrassing me at work and for lying and impersonating a goverment employee.

Thank you for all that has posted this information

I received a call from this number and the person on the other line said he was officer steve anderson, he has all my personal information and said that I took out a loan for $794.00 which I never did. How can we stop these phone calls from coming in . I am going to call better business bureau to see if they are listed with them. I kept on asking him questions and all he wanted was for me to verify my social security number and I told him that I would not. I told him that he is all over the internet about this being a scam and he said that it is not true and he insisted that I verify my social security number.

This guy needs to learn how to speak English, #1 and #2, form sentences. "you need to return me call"....do not listen to these people.  Hang up on them or don't answer.  
Caller ID #916-395-0000,
Their division hotlines #716-541-0015.  What a joke.

I recd a call today from 716-541-0015, saying that I have 3 criminal charges against because I did not pay back my payday loans and that i owe $794.00 and that if i didn't pay by 5pm today that i would be sued and sent to court. First of all the message i got i could not understand at all.. The officer his name is Roger  said that i have to fax over a copy of my license to him with my credit card information saying that i agree t pay this amount today and he said unless i receive this from you i can not hold your file any longer and some criminal charges will be charged against you. I told him i would like all of this in writing before i do anything he said they are not allowed to send anything in writing and that if he did that means that i was saying that i need a lawyer present hahaha, these people are definitely scam artists and want to just steal your information, i am reporting them to the better business bureau.
Also Officer Roger told me that he needed to speak to his attorney to make sure its okay to hold the file and he said that he told the attorney that i am a genuine person and good hearted and that i wanted to settle the debt, that put made me realize that this was not legit.
What a bunch of crap, they need to learn how to speak English because they do not even make sense. I was asking questions about the supposedly company that I owe money to and he was like its a affiliation company, not genuine people.

Got a call from Officer Nancy Jones need to call her right away because I owe them money.  She was going to have me arrest by the Sherriff deparment.  She can't even speak english well.  When you it says ext 3021 plese leave your message.  Like hell if I'm going to leave them a message.

Today I rcvd a vm from a gentleman by the name of "Jack Gates" who has been calling me and calling me claiming that if I don't return the call he can no longer hold the file at his desk and he will turn this over to the courts.   I work for a collection company and what they are doing is in violation of every FDCPA law there is out there.   I am going to tell them the next time they call me that I have spoken with my attorney and have every intention of suing them for violating my rights regarding this law.  If they want to continue to persue me, I will press charges for harrassment.

Been getting calls from this number they accuse me of not paying back a  debt back and saying
I'm going to be arrested and held without bail. Couldn't understand name or much else. They are most certainly foreigners.

An "officer", Mr. Roger Gibson of BCI "Bureau of Criminal Investigations" left a message on my cell stating that I needed to call him back because I had complaints against my name and social security number. He stated that if I didn't call back I would be arrested. I called him back and he proceeded to state that I owed money on a loan that I applied for and received and never paid. I am up to date with all my loans. It is some type of scam. I believe I scared him off when I told him that I spoke to my lawyer and my lawyer told me that what he was doing was illegal. After that he stated that everything was ok and that I didn't have to worry about anything. He had a thick foreign accents, so did the female that answered the call that I returned. My greatest concern about this is that he knew my name, address, cell and work number, ss# and God knows what else. He even left a message at work stating the nature of his call. Very rude, unproffessional and surely illegal.

Some one from the number called and threaten to have me locked up telling me I needed a lawyer and I needed to go to closest court house.  He had a Indian accent telling me I owe 1,111.00 and a ssettlement would be 774..  asking to fax him informtion  Anyone who gets a call from this number do not give out any information.l  I even asked for a validatin of debt and he started loud talking me.

Got a call from this number today, thick accent stating he was officer Roger Gibson from the BCI legal Department, stating I have criminal alligations against my name and my ss, not to disreguard. To call him back today, the number came up on my phone is 34951240011, but gave me this 7155410051 to call backon, what the hell is going on with these people and why cant they be stopped.

I recently just scamed for $200 because I gave my debit card information out to a person I believed was collecting on a loan I had out. Then I receive an email saying I still owe the full amount. Called my bank they advised me that Heal Comfort Inc. Had something to do with it. So she gave me the number and called to do my own investigating. His name was Jack so he claimed said I would receive my money back and apologized. I havent gotten anything. I live from pay check to pay check and I didnt think getting a loan on line would have gotting robbed. I also feel like I can't get any help resolving this matter all want is my money back.
