just got a call from 'Tom' at 'Penny group financial' or something close as it was a slightly garbled and rapid-fire message, looking for my sister. Even more odd was that he asked for her by her maiden name (my last name, which is obviously how he/they found me) about an 'important business matter' and said to call him back at a 1-866 number.

I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING CALLS AT MY HOME FOR ANOTHER EDWARD JONES FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS.ON 8/18/09,MY MOTHER IN LAW RECEIVED A CALL LOOKING FOR ME.HE SAID HIS NAME WAS MR. LEWINSKI AND THAT HE WAS AN ATTORNEY.HE SAID I WAS TO BE A WITNESS IN A TRIAL AND IT WAS VERY IMPORTANT TO SPEAK TO ME.MY MOTHER IN LAW MADE THE MISTAKE OF GIVING HIM MY CELL # BECAUSE SHE SAID HE WAS VERY POLITE TO HER.HE THEN CALLED ME AND WAS THE EXACT OPPOSITE.HE SAID I WAS GOING TO BE SUED FOR NOT PAYING ON A CREDIT ACCOUNT AND THE COURT DATE WAS IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS.HE WOULD NOT LET ME SPEAK AND WAS VERY AGGRESSIVE AND ABRUPT.I TRIED TO TELL HIM THAT THE ACCOUNT # HE GAVE ME WAS NOT MINE,BUT HE DID NOT WANT TO HERE IT.I TOLD HIM HE HAD THE WRONG EDWARD JONES,BUT HE DID NOT WANT TO HEAR IT.I HUNG UP ON HIM AND HE CALLED ME BACK AND SAID I WOULD RECEIVE SOME PAPERS IN THE MAIL AND ALSO SAID I HAD RECEIVED PAPERS IN THE PAST WHICH I RECEIVED NONE.I TOLD HIM THAT WHEN I RECEIVED HE PAPERS I WOULD ADDRESS THE SISUATION THEN AND HUNG UP ON HIM AGAIN.HIS # IS 716-809-8118,AND IT IS SOMETHING LIKE THE PENNY FINACIAL GROUP LLC, IT IS HARD TO HEAR WHEN YOU CALL.AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THEY ARE MOST LIKELY A SCAM LOOKING FOR YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION.THE # ALSO COMES UP UNKNOWN IN THE WHITE PAGES DATA BASE.ANY INFO ON THIS SITUATION WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

A man called name Bryman, stated I was a person of interest in a investigation and provided a case number. I checked the rip-off report and this company was there .. don't accept any calls and certainly don't provide any banking information to them. Sounds to me they check credit history and use it as a scam...
