I got a call from a man with and Indian accent keeps calling, saying legal action against me, He calls my job leaving me threatening messages. Saying I owe money but not telling me who or what it is for. Can not understand what he is saying or what is his name. I'm so very tired of this harassment, don't know what to do to stop it.

A man with an Indian accent keeps calling me nonstop. Says his name is Mi ke Jordan. Leaves me threatening voice messages. Threatening legal action for a debt. But doesn't say who the debt is with. Sounds like the same man named Gary Cooper who was calling me a few weeks ago. I'm fed up with this harassment. Phone number is 856-896-0722

Called my place of employment. University of Michigan and stated that they were calling from a law office. Clifton Law. Caller was Ronaldo. He left the message with my call center Rep.I called them back an they had heavy indian tone to there voice and stated They were gonna sue me If i didn't pay. I offered to give them my lawyer's info and I also stated that they had called before and they are a scam and I've been scammed once already and she stated , Im sending the police to your apartment, which I haven't lived in an apartment in 10yrs. Then she hung up. Call 800-337-5373 which is AT&T and they will block this number. They have been calling all over the university of Michigan for the last year. Be aware of these scam artist

Received the same call.  This happened to me once before about three years ago and they almost got me until my attorney told me that it was a scam.  These people aren't even in the United States.  They are in Nigeria or somewhere along those lines.  They use cell phones and unfortunately, are able to scam mostly elderly people out of thousands of dollars simply by threatening them.  Just called me and said his name was Mike Rogers.  Either don't answer or tell them you're recording the call and they will hang up.

This time, the guy's name is Mark Jordan.  He is threating to sue me and wishes me good luck if I or my attorney doesn't return is call.   He is of Indian ethnicity.   They call constanctly.   They, whomever, Department  of what use every number under the sun.    He called earlier this week and his name was Kevin.  

Not only should you, but your employer should also file complaints.  With the extortion scamming ones, not much you can do short of getting a call blocking device.. The T-lock Incoming PRO Call Blocker sells for under 60 bucks on Amazon and can block up to 1500 numbers.

Please do file reports with the FBI, your state attorney general and Department Of Justice,FTC & FCC..

Section 809 of the FDCPA http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre27.pdf requires 3rd-party debt collectors to give debtors written notice of debt (the key word is *shall*) :
"§ 809. Validation of debts
(a) Within five days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall, unless the following information is contained in the initial communication or the consumer has paid the debt, send the consumer a written notice containing?
(1) the amount of the debt;
(2) the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed;
(3) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector;
(4) a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector; and
(5) a statement that, upon the consumer?s written request within the thirty-day period, the debt collector will provide the consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor."

A Collection Agent May Not?

Here are the top 11 actions prohibited by the The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act:

Misrepresent Him or Herself

  A debt collector may not misrepresent himself as an attorney or law enforcement officer.

Use the Telephone to Annoy or Harass

  A collection agent may not cause a telephone to ring or engage any person in telephone conversation repeatedly or continuously with an intent to annoy, abuse, or harass anyone at the called number.

Threaten Arrest or Lawsuit

  A collection agent may not threaten a consumer with arrest. It may not threaten legal action that is either not permitted or not actually contemplated. In other words, a the threat of a lawsuit may be an empty one.

Use Abusive or Threatening Language

  A debt collector may no use abusive or profane language in the course of communication related to the debt.

Publish a Bad Debt List

  Publishing the consumer?s name or address on a "bad debt" list is prohibited.

Contact By Embarrassing Media

  A debt collector may not communicate with a consumer by post card. It may not use any language or symbol, other than the debt collector?s address, on any envelope when communicating with a consumer by use of the mails or by telegram. A debt collector may use its business name if such name does not indicate it is in the debt collection business.

Contact a Consumer at Work

  A collection agent may not communicate with consumers at their place of employment after being told this is unacceptable or prohibited by the employer.

Seek Unjustifiable Amounts

  A debt collector may not demand any amounts not permitted under an applicable contract or as provided under law.

Contact a Consumer Represented by an Attorney

  A collection agent may not contact a consumer after it learns the consumer is represented by a lawyer.

Communicate With a Consumer After Receiving a Validation Request

  If a consumer sends a written §1692g response within 30 days, the collection agent may not communicate with the consumer until it mails the consumer the requested verification of original creditor's name and address.

Communicate With Third Parties

  A debt collector may not reveal or discuss the nature of a consumer?s debts with third parties other than the consumer?s spouse or attorney. A collection agent may contact neighbors or co-workers only to obtain location information. It may contact a third party again if it has reason to believe the information the party provided previously is false.

Bills.com FDCPA FAQ

Below are questions Bills.com readers ask frequently:

Can a Collection Agent Call My Cell Phone?

  Yes. However, if you tell the debt collector it may not use that number because it is a cell phone, it may not contact you again at that number.

I Keep Receiving Dozens of Calls From Collection Agents. Is That Legal?

  No. Unscrupulous collection agents will use "block parties" or "office parties" where they contact a consumer, multiple neighbors, or co-workers telling them they need to reach the consumer on an urgent matter. This is not permitted under the FDCPA.

A Collector Says I Will Be Arrested if I Do Not Pay

  This was a true statement before the US Civil War, but has not been true since. People may be arrested if an aggressive judge files a bench warrant for a person who does not appear at a hearing relating to a lawsuit regarding a debt. However, in that case, the offense is the failure to respond to a court order, and not the existence of the debt. As stated above, it is illegal under the FDCPA to threaten a consumer with arrest if the consumer does not pay the debt.

I received a call from this number by the same person "Mike Jordan", claiming legal action. He has called my job and cell phone several times and is harrassing me. How can I stop this???

Recieved a call from this number...Threatening legal action on a ficticious debt. Heavy East Indian accent with the name "Mike Jordan".  Claimed to be from some "Legal Services" company and that failure to reply would result in "cops at your door"...
What a moron.

i got this call from this company. but when I called the real company they said that they would never use this number
