My friends and family have recieved similair calls from this number. They are saying I owe them money and I have never heard of this outfit before.

They have called me several times over the years for a debt that I paid over 20 years ago.  They sometimes say there is a warrant for my arrest and they will be coming to my work today, other times they use other scare tactics.  They aren't legit.  That's not how the real world works, only scam artists.

They won't come.  They have threatened me dozens of times about a debt that I paid years ago,  If there is a warrant for your arrest, they don't call you and tell you about it ahead of time.  Don't fret, it's a scam.

Thanks Alflfa that is valuable information. Here's some additional. The use of who called me sites,being aware of who these scumbags are and calling them on it is effective. I did that last Septmber, left a messaage on the 855-862-9167 when they were calling themselves Segal Bennet Associates and there hasn't been one additional complaint on that site since mine. Seems they have taken on a new phone #, different name and slightly different tactic.  Went to the FTC complaint site also, one of these bloodsuckers posted a comment calling victims "the real scammers."  Unbelievable!

Different phone # but I saved the voicemail messages. The guys voice sounds exactly like the same bloodsucker who called and left a message from Segal Bennett and Associates last summer insisting that I call back immediately. Some 855 # out of New York at the time. Different numbers same predators trying to suck the blood out of hardworking people. I called back both times and left messages that I've seen here the crap they're pulling and I know who my debts are with. Didn't here anything again til now.

Just answered my elderly mother's phone and a man named Ed??, did not speak very clearly, answered.  The first call was a man's voice requesting for my mother to call this number due to some arbritation and gave a case number to refer to.  I called this number and the man would not identify what company he was from and that he just came back from lunch and had to turn his computer on.  He clearly avoided my question of what company this was, continuely  talking over me, and I told him, "This is nothing but a scam" and hung up. The man kept insisting on getting another phone number from me.

I just got a phone call stating that they tried to serve me twice. I need to get a lawyer. They are get ready to take me to small claim court. I need to obtain a lawyer. His name is Robert Steel at 1800-286-1326, ext 340. I have not called them yet.

My mother-in-law received a call from these guys saying there were fraud charges against me. They had her very worried and concerned. I received a call with the similar situation about 8 months ago as well. It makes me mad they call family members and so on. Such a stupid scam and needs to be stopped.

It's only scary if you are stupid! Legitimate debt collectors would not call a stranger and threaten arrest and have a "case" number. You are being victimized by a scam artist. The Al-anon is a prison half-way house. Good job training, no?

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, is warning consumers to be on the alert for scam artists posing as debt collectors. It may be hard to tell the difference between a legitimate debt collector and a fake one. Sometimes a fake collector may even have some of your personal information, like a bank account number. A caller may be a fake debt collector if he:

?is seeking payment on a debt for a loan you do not recognize;
?refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number;
?asks you for personal financial or sensitive information; or
?exerts high pressure to try to scare you into paying, such as threatening to have you arrested or to report you to a law enforcement agency.

If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

?Ask the caller for his name, company, street address, and telephone number. Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." The notice must include the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor you owe, and your rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, do not pay! Paying a fake debt collector will not always make them go away. They may make up another debt to try to get more money from you.?Stop speaking with the caller. If you have the caller's address, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.
?Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know whom you're dealing with. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft ? charging your existing credit cards, opening new credit card, checking, or savings accounts, writing fraudulent checks, or taking out loans in your name.
?Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate ? but you think the collector may not be ? contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.
?Report the call. Contact the FTC and your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers. Many states have their own debt collection laws in addition to the federal FDCPA. Your Attorney General's office can help you determine your rights under your state's law.

I received a call from Roger Carter.  He claimed that he is a Special Investigator for Executive Abbritration and that he is contacting me on behalf of a payday loan company that filed charges of fraud against me.  He told me that he did not have the authority to discuss the legal issues with the case and provided a number for David Logan (800-286-1326 x303) so that I could discuss making payment arrangements.  

I told him that I don't have a payday loan and wanted to know how he got my number.  THIS IS A SCAM.  If you get this call contact your State's Attorney and your local FBI to report.  These people need to be stopped!!!!!

I got a call today on my business cell from the number (716) 462-4570 and they left this 800 number as the call back number.  Must be a new scam they are running.  They claimed to be from Executive Arbitration and said my file was open.

We also got the same type of phone call about an arbitration issue. Since the calls have started they are now coming in every day. What a pain in the behind. how do we get these calls stopped?

I get called no less than 6 times per day from 716-462-4570 {New York} on my cell. The call is on a "Reject List" but I get voicemail messages. At first, the message was automated, advising that I can call and make arrangements to pay a debt while I have my funds from my Income Tax refund. Now, the message is a man, identifying himself as an Investigator Morrison, and stating that I need to call back 800-286-1326 and give a reference number so that I can resolve the matter. I have not called any of the numbers back. I refuse to allow these idiots to get me upset. Like so many of the statements that I have read, I know that this is a scam, and I too have filed a complaint with my state Attorney General.

I got a call on my work phone today. it was an automated message from "executive arbitrations". there was a file# mentioned and it requested a phone call back at 800-286-1326 ... 8002861326 ... it didn't explain anything about a debt or civil/criminal action. i do not intend to call the number back, based on what i've read here.

FYI, it's possible that "al anon" was the previous owner of the ph#. if anyone is bored, they could contact al anon of north carolina, that the number traces back to, and just see if anyone could verify that this is their previous number or advise that it appears that someone is using one of their numbers to call people for fraud, in case that concerns them.

A man named David Logan has called me several times threatening fraud charges. He never identifies company or what matter is related to.He says if I do not contact him legal action will be taken. I have not called him because he does not identify his company or details.The whole thing is very upsetting.

I got a call from 800-286-1326 X 308 from the Fraud Investigation and Arbitrations Dept. Saying that both criminal and civil lawsuits were being filed against me in my local county court. They also said that had send numerous letters. I could hear someone laughing in the background of this call. I looked the number up and it's a number for Al-Anon in North Carolina. They called me on my work phone number.

How exactly do we get them to STOP!!! I get a message on my phone from a different number to call the 1800 number that you all are referring too about an arbitration while I have a tax return. I have not called the number back and do not plan too. But I would like who ever this is to stop. This happens every year right around this time, and it is relentless for a couple months. I mean 6:00 am calls to way after mid night.
They have scared my elderly mother to death into giving her information because she thought I was to be arrested.
Any sound advice on how to get off of there radar?

I have gotten a call a day from Jim Nelson stating they were coming to arrest me for a criminal complaint. I owed on a payday loan years ago and got it paid. Its a scam for sure when I said what company he wouldn't answer but would take my credit card number...I bet they would.

5 calls from a Mr Jim Nelson from 1800 286 1326 that he has 2 cases of check fraud with my ss# on them that I need to call him right away civil court case has anyone gotten a call from him

we get calls all the time on mine and my husban phones i work for the sheriff and have let them know

No response.

Someone called my former in-laws saying all the same thing as everyone is reporting.  So I contacted the state attorney general's office in my state and they said they will be investigated.  What these people are doing is beyond illegal and they are going to stop harrassing me!

I just received a call from 800.286.1326 telling me the same thing that I had 48hrs to call back they had my social security number and dob said if I dont call back then they will submit the charges and my plead will be guilty on,their behalf ....is there anything that can be done about this its pretty scary

my son's ex girlfriend got a call from this "inspector morrison" saying he was sitting outside my house, I didn't know what it was about, told her I haven't done anything, to just ignore it, now he is calling my cell number and telling me "they" have sent numerous letters-I haven't received one letter from anyone.  Said he has a bench warrant for my arrest....this needs to stop, I don't owe anyone, or anything except my rent, utilities and car-which are all current.......

They are probably using software to spoof the caller id so chances are they are off shore and not even located in the continental USA.  That is what makes it so hard for the authorities to catch them.  They can use throw away cell phones with a spoofed caller ID.  They make a few calls leaving a callback number which may or may not match the caller id and then they throw the phone away and start over with new numbers and new names.  It's vicious and isn't limited to claiming victims in the USA.  I've heard of Canadians being called as well which makes it international.  Interpol should get involved; heck, bring in the UN army to track them down and bring them to justice.

Got a call on Jan 15 from an Ivestigator DERRICK STONE stating a fraud complaint had been filed against me in an adjacent county and to contact them to avoid further legal action and he was federal mandated, blah, blah, blah.  Today the SAME GUY calls and now his name is DAVID ERICKSON and that a complaint has been filed under my name and social security number in county district court and a pending affidavit is scheduled to be served.  And to avoid further legal action to contact them with a case number they gave.  Stated that this was not a solicitation and this matter warranted a response by Wednesday.  I've blocked the original numbers they called from, which was out of Buffalo, New York and now they are sending the calls through with No Caller ID.  UGH!!!!  Enough already!!

An inspector Morrison called my place of employment, told my supervisor that a warrant was to be served, and he didn't want to come on the job. He also said he wouldn't come, but I could call him and meet somewhere else. I am upset because I could lose my job.

My call the man said he was "Investigator Morrison" and yep, it's not a valid number and he tried to get information on another person.

They are scare tactics.  Expect a call that the police are coming too (a lie).  Debt (IF you did owe) is civil court, not criminal.  They actually broke the law by talking to a third party about you.  IF you were to be served, you would have written notice.  Phone calls, faxes and emails do not count.  You could also call your county courthouse.  They could tell you if charges were really filed (which I doubt).

The call is a typical scam.  Many other numbers have been used.
