Extortion Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

Washington, D.C.
December 07, 2010  FBI National Press Office
(202) 324-3691

? filed under: Press Release

The Internet Crime Complaint Center has received many complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. Callers claim the victim is delinquent in a payday loan and must repay the loan to avoid legal consequences. The callers purport to be representatives of the FBI, Federal Legislative Department, various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies. They claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, and other Internet check-cashing services.

According to complaints received from the public, the callers have accurate data about victims, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, employer information, bank account numbers, and the names and telephone numbers of relatives and friends. How the fraudsters obtained the personal information varies, but in some cases victims have reported they completed online applications for other loans or credit cards before the calls started.

The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim?s home, cell phone, and place of employment. They refuse to provide any details about the alleged payday loans and become abusive when questioned. The callers have threatened victims with legal actions, arrests, and, in some cases, physical violence if they do not pay. In many cases, the callers harass victims? relatives, friends, and employers.

I got a call today from 904-402-9175 ext 105 telling me to return call and ask for Jason Palmers or maybe Thomas not for sure but when I called back he connector me to Frank Howard who said I had 3 counts against my ss# he said I owed cashnetusa. I told him I don't have no loan with them he tried to get nasty talking about if I don't settle it then it go cost me $9000 if I go to court.I asked him what was the number he said 443-478-7480 which is a scam number also you guys be careful I will be calling the FTC in the morning to file a complaint

I received a 911 call so I answered it and they said I needed to pay 17 hundred dollars with in 30 or I will be arrested he said his name was jack Hoffman. And they gave me this 904-402-9175 very India accent. I changed my number my bank account and now they are calling my work place.

This is some coward hiding behind a magicJack device plugged in at some God-forsaken corner of the world where there is Internet service.  He's no better than a common criminal using a magicJack device and your fear the same way a common thief uses a toy pistol hidden in the pocket of his overcoat to make a bulge that looks like a real gun.

You can verify that this is a magicJack number by searching for it at http://www.phonevalidator.com .

Scams similar to this one have been extensively researched at
http://www.pindropsecurity.com/consumer-fraud ... irs-phone-scam/ and it was found that magicJack numbers are frequently used, and many of the scammers are operating out of India.  There is even an audio recording of a call returned to one of these numbers and a written transcript of the recording contained in links from the Pindrop Security blog.

MagicJacks are readily obtainable outside of the United States for about $100 US and can come with up to a year of free calling to the U.S. and Canada.  In India, see, for example,
http://magicjack.in .  One of these in the hands of an overseas scammer can pay for itself very quickly and earn a handsome windfall for the criminal using it if even one called party is gullible enough to fall for the fraud even once a month.

In addition to the regular reporting channels, e.g., the FTC and/or your local state attorney general's office, you might also report the abuse to YMAX Corp.  I have seen reports that they are pretty good at responding to complaints and may be able to permanently shut off a magicJack device, if necessary, so that it can never be used again.

The YMAX Corp. main web page is at:
http://www.ymaxcorp.com
and their site giving information on how to lodge a complaint is at:
http://www.ymaxcorp.com/contact.html

Note that the "contact" website gives a clickable link to a "live chat" where you can make your complaint.

Called from 911 saying the same thing that they have a federal complain and I need to call and talk to edwards robertson and I need social email banking info. If I dnt call I am going to go to jail. Guys name was jason Kennedy but has an Indian accent and iy was the pa state police. The number I should call with all my info is 9044029175

I got a call from 911 and saying it was pa state police jason kennedy. I am accent saying he has a federal complaib against me and I need to call 9044029175 and give them my social and banking info and email address. If I dnt call I will be arrested

I got a call from 904-402-9175, Indian dude said he was Jason Thomas from the Federal Trade commission and i needed my lawyer to call him back. When I called him back, and told him he didn't sound like a Jason Thomas and this was a scam he started cussing me and then hung up but then he called me back and left a very nasty obsence message on my phone! Now whose the Dumb A__!!!!

I recieved the same message this morning.  I called them back and told them to stop calling me or I will call the police.  They are a bunch of scammers.  

federal trade commision called to tell me i had something against my name , thereating me to court..extention 105 to call athem back ,,they call all the time. its annoying and aggravating and scarey they have my ssnumber. i know its a scam..

Just got a call from Office Jason Thomas who told me he was from FTC claiming I opened up a payday loan and never paid it back.   My husband told him that I never took out a payday loan and was getting louder and louder.  Finally the guy just hung up.

received a call on my cell Phone from an Officer Jason Thomas (heavy indian accent) with the Federal Trade Commission.  There are cases against my ssn on 3 counts (did not tell me what those were) and I should contact him at 904-402-9175, ext. 105. Iam sure this is a scam and will Not be calling him back!! These people need to get a real job and stop trying to scam hard working people!!!

I have received a total of 13 calls from this number just today.  They also have an app that they are using to call and it appears to be calling from you own cell phone number.  Jason Thomas states he is an officer with the Federal Trade Commission.  I advised him that he was committing fraud stating he was calling from an American Government Federal Office.  This in turn is why I am positive that I have received 12 more calls.  Very heavy Indian accent.  I have called the FTC and filed a complaint as well I have filed with the Ohio State Attorney Generals office.  

I would HIGHLY recommend contacting the FTC as they are the office that these FRAUDULENT scammers are stating they are from.

Got a call saying he was from the federal trade commission, and there was allegations against me and that I need to call him back.... To get this resolved, (Like iam going to do that!) these people need to get a REAL JOB and stop scamming others

# keeps calling.  Guy states if i dont pay him money owed to somewhere i will be going to jail,  i dont owe anyone anything.  The # is 904-402-9175

I received a call on my work number from an Officer Jason Thomas (heavy indian accent) with the Federal Trade Commission.  There are cases against my ssn on 3 counts (did not tell me what those were) and I should contact him at 904-402-9175, ext. 105.  I already have an attorney of record to settle my husband's estate so I can add this as well.  

they called my work number which is a court house,

This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.

Has called twice claiming it was FTC. Please its a scam

I got a miss call from 911 then I got a voice message from them asking for Robert Bryant  so I called back and told them I don't know a Robert Bryant and they asked my name I wasn't sure on giving it back because I did now I'm kinda worried about this only give them my name because I seen 911
