I MEANT MY HUSBANDS WORK, YES THE @SSHOLE CALLS HIM AT WORK

Received 2 calls,so far,looking for a former employee. As a courtesy I called the number back to inform them that I have no idea who this person is. Officer Shehan would not take my word and demanded I forward him to my HR dept. I told him to look it up. Caller also gave way too much information about why he was looking for this other person which violates privacy laws. Identifies company as "Department of Law and Investigations" Caller sounds more like an operator overseas.

THIS SCAMMER HAS BEEN CALLING MY HOME AND MY HUSBANDS HOME FOR OVER A WEEK NOW, HE CALLS ALL DAY AND IS RUDE AND VULGAR. HE TOLD MY HUSBAND HE WAS GOING TO RAPE ME. HE TOLD ME HE IS GOING TO HAVE HIS OFFICER ARREST ME AND TAKE MY KIDS AWAY, HE HAS SAID WE WILL SPEND CHRISTMAS IN JAIL AND HE WILL GET MY HUSBAND FIRED. OMG I HAVE CALLED THE LOCAL POLICE, I FILED A REPORT WITH THE FBI AND MADE A REPORT TO THE FCC, I AM CALLING THE ATTORNEY GENERAL IN THE MORNING, HE CALLS FROM THIS NUMBER, THOUGH THE 4 DIGITS "1009" HAVE ALSO COME UP ON MY CALLER ID AND MY OWN NUMBER HAS COME UP ON MY CALLER ID AS WELL.

You better watch yourself "Jack," Andrew Cuomo the NYS attorney general is coming for you. Wasn't too long ago that scumbags collectors like you got arrested and thrown in jail.

Being in this biz,  I would advise you all to get this all on tape and get phone records proving what you say is true. Get an attorney, get your attorney general involved, the NYS attny general is HIGHLY involved in persuing debt collectors to the fullest extent of the law.
Any collector call you they HAVE to give you something in writing proving that you owe.

My husband and I decided to give this guy a taste of his own medication. I called under a made up name and agreed to completely cooperate in paying the 810.00. I told him i had more than enough to cover that and could get a bank check. He told me for security purposes they only accept money directly through an account with my name. either a credit or debit card or bank and routing number. he even gave me a formal format to send a letter of authorization to. lol and then i reamed him out for attempting to scam people and commiting fraud. my husband has called him a few times, let him file a harassment claim against us and then we can find out who this jerk is. he calls my husbands work and calls my home all day. he has left threatening messages. i got one this morning saying that if we didnt deal with him we would celebrate our Christmas in jail. lol

Today, I received a message to contact an unnamed attorney at 718-513-7309. I returned the call answered by a DENNIS RICHARDS.  He asked me for my case number (I had no idea of what he was talking about).  When I asked what this was about...he said (I think) that he was not able to discuss this, that this was a legal matter.  Without prejudice, I must point out that I had great difficulty understanding what he was "explaining" due to his thick accent. I point blank told him this and asked to speak with someone else.  After being put on hold, "someone else" came to the phone...him, again.  SUSPICIONS!!!  He informed me (From a script) that I had committed fraud, was subject to further investigation...and that he was calling to help me resolve this matter without it going to the courts and on my record!!  He finally to me whom he represented and that they would not help me. What Mr Richards did not know, was that I had already made payment to the real creditor. I gave him the contacts number, he supposedly called them and that were gone for today.  During all this, my wife had the contact on her cell phone...she is listening in on Mr Richards offer to rescue me...for a price. But, this must be done today!!!  I informed Mr Richards that the party "gone for day" was listening in ... he hung up!!!

LMAO @ Jack, Im sure this is the same little pr!ck who threatened me tonight. NOTE TO SCAMMERS:: Its called "English", and if you are going to try to rip americans like me off, you may want to brush up on it.  hmmm I wonder if authorities would have a way of tracing your IP through the post you left and find you. JACK must be short for JACK***

So i reported the information i posted above to not only the local police but also the state police and they believe this guy is not in the USA but has somehow gotten a NY number. .  .  . so i began thinking and remember that A few months ago, somehow someone intercepted my husbands and my bank account and routing number and they were printing off paper checks using our account number. We were reimbursed from our bank for the fraudulent checks and closed the account. Almost immediately after closing the account we began receiving calls from this very number (I knew the phone number was familiar to me, I just couldnt remember how), it was the same man with a thick middle eastern accent. This time he was calling to inform us that we had been approved for a zero down auto loan. He only needed to confirm our address, names and social security numbers and we would be in our own car within a few days! lol, I never gave out any information. I would ask him to stop calling and he would say OK and then 10 minutes later my phone was ringing with this number again! I reported this to the police and they called the guy and spoke to him, the calls had stopped completely until this week. I believe this guy is the one who had printed phony checks using my account information. There isn't much we can do except change our number, which I am not doing. He is out of the US and is a thief, simple as that but I dont know who could possibly deal with this!  The police departments i reported this to said there wasnt much they could do and my phone company said they cant block one specific number.

Just a coincidence that your positive post showed up right after I told them about the stuff I'd Googled on their number, huh?

Jack, I suspect you WORK for these scammers and trying to put in a positive plug as a decoy.  ALL these other commentators are easy marks, and you're the only who got it right, right!?

Exact same thing happened to me today.  They called my work, but I couldn't talk right then.  I called them when I got home, and, sure enough the same spiel was given to me.  I've committed fraud, I'm being investigated, so forth.  Same accent, except this time it's DENNIS RICHARDS.  What he didn't know was that I had already made arrangements with the REAL company to satisfy the loan.  While I entertained "Mr Richards" on one phone, my wife called the REAL company on her cell.  We compared notes and Mr Richards was exposed a the SCAMMER he is.  I informed that if he contacts me again, I can and will pursue legal actions.

record the calls, document everything and sue them for each violation of FDCPA

Exact same as above-- they're calling, threatening, trying to get me to pay them money which I don't owe.  And they have my address.  My entire family is scared and I don't know what to do.  I've contacted the Attorney General, and I'll be calling the FBI tomorrow.

These people really helped me alot. they are very genuine people. you guys must got a call from some kind of collection agency. But this people helped me out from debt collection agency, they told me to stop the payment which i was paying to collection agency and i got the all the papers from the court and as well from cashnet.

I got a call from my husband at his third shift job a little while ago. he was frantic, he said someone had called his work demanding we pay for a "cash net" loan (which we never had). he told my husband we were now being investigated for fraud. The man claimed to be Charles Brown he had a thick middle eastern accent. So i called this man from my home and inquired as to what this supposed debt was. He was immediately rude to me, couldn't give me any facts such as the business he works for name, his name or who the money was "owed" to. he asked that I make a payment over the phone and I told him no, i lectured him about the audacity he had for calling my husband over this frivolous s**t at his place of employment. The man told me that he would call every hour, everyday until my husband is fired and that his investigators were coming to my house to deal with me. WOW. I called the state police and they can deal with it. I have no idea how to make them stop calling! This number previously called me 20 times a day for a month, and now they are back again

Dennis Richards
Attorney Dept of Law Investigation

Keeps calling my work and my supervisor has REPEATEDLY asked these people to STOP CALLING. My supervisor got nasty with them and they STILL do not refrain from calling! Different people keep calling trying to get ahold of me from this so called company.

My coworkers have hung up on them and they keep stating if we continue to hang up on their calls it's going to get me and the company I work for in a lot of TROUBLE.

called me at work and said that I owed money to a cashnet loan that I never even new of had all my info and basicly said the same the that Kayla said

This is a scam!!!!!!!!!!!!! a man tells you he is a officer and that you need to have your lawyer call or he is going to put you in jail. DON'T GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION......................... they will call you 10000 times. they even called from a 1041 # and a few times my own number showed up like i was calling myself but it was them!!!
