this number is also connected with a number 520-306-2029. They are saying I am being sued. I tried calling the 951 number but couldn't get thru.

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 from unscrupulous websites like the one you may have filled out an application with, 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.

ABC News released an investigative report on this scam a year ago:

I just got 2 calls from these people, the first call was at 8 am, i told him immediately to put me on their DNC list, he called me right back and said he was from the state att'ys office.  I asked for what state, he would only say his office was in CA.  I filled out a request for a pay day loan on 365 day loan's website.  researched them, thought they were legit.  since then I have received over 200 phone calls (in 5 days) and 500 emails from other companies.  DO NOT USE THAT COMPANY, all they do is gather your info and sell it. I never even took the loan, from anyone, I have never had one.

I agree it's gotta be scam. I aplied for eloan now I get this. got calls mostly last year when I applied for car loan. from US loans...or us car loans...I didn't trust it they will hack you if they can. alias shawn white from fbi and all I suspect he's the on that escaped from prision I saw on cop show but I forgot who he is most wanted if I remember.

Let them know you found out it was a scam!  I did what folks suggested and blocked my phone and called them back.  They answer how can I help you?  B*****ds and they have the nerve to get smart.  Let them know that they are all over the internet as a scam and watch how ignorant they become.

These folks just called me at 8:30 am.  They left a VM saying I had a debt they didn't say payday loans.  I was threatened that a sheriff would appear at my job and that I would receive a document saying I lost my job and he was preparing it as we spoke.  I politely asked the man, for verifying information as to when this happened and he got upset.  He gave me my email address and the last 4 digits of my social security number.  I continued to ask for information and he got upset.  I asked to speak with someone else as it was difficult for me to understand him and he said there was no one else to talk to.  Did some internet research and found you guys.  Called them back to let them know I was going to report them and the number doesn't even ring.  It clicks, there is the old internet noise then the phone is silent.  Im pissed off right now.

This son of a ***ch calls 50 times a day and called my husbands supervisor.  My sister owns www.debtsurvivalinfo.com and contacted the FBI regarding this matter.  I'm going to my local police office and filing a formal complaint to show my husbands employer that this is a scam.  Also, they got ahold of my husband and he didn't understand it was a scam and they gave him a social security number that did not belong to him so he corrected them and gave him his.  DO NOT DO THIS! Keep the message go to the police and play the message this is a deliberate threat to you AND it's against the law.

Same thing happened to me with a Chris Miller. Middle eastern accent almost verbatim to what I am reading here. I will be contacting the authorities tomorrow morning. They even threatened to have me arrested at work.

A guy named Adam Spencer called me and told me that he was going to have the sheriff come and arrest in 2 hours at my place of employment.. I called the number back and the guy was laughing... It is a scam.. The said they had a warrant for my arrest..

Just received a call from this same number at work, woman or man had a very think accent, but her name is Crystal Brown.  Apparently, I have 3 criminal charges against me, a warrant out for my arrest and get this, "they" John E. Best law offices will notify my Employer to "suspend" my work privileges, WTH?!  However, I started asking "Crystal" some tough questions regarding their clients that are reportedly suing me.  I also advised her that my company monitors all calls for quality assurance purposes and that our conversation is being recorded.  Crystal said something about "good luck with what is about to unfold upon you" and hung up!  I hung up and looked around for the hidden candid camera or someone to tell me I just been phone tapped by the Elvis radio morning show....ha!  my coworker told me to google the phone number and received the validation that this was a stupid scam!  Helpful Tip: if you receive a similar call from this number, start off by informing them that the call is being recorded or put your "fake" attorney voice to handle this fake law firm!  LOL

they called my work said i needed to call their law office and i owe 600 dollars for a pay day loan and if i didnt pay within an hour i would be arrested his name is now daniel martin lol so please dont fall for this its a scam their number is 951 223 6717 contact hemet county california police 1 800 950 2444 and report it

Drive time is gathering your info when fill out online forms and selling the info they they called my cell and my work number today cause whem i called back i cant get thur  its a scam

Just got off the phone with him.if you block your number he will answer. Decided to harass him since he wanted to harass me ha ha

They been calling me for about a week now saying that I owe money to some company which I never heard b4.

Did any of you fill out any apps for any credit recently? Like a car loan etc??

What a douche.  These guys are ridiculous.  Same story.

The..."individual" making these extortionist threats is NOT "Chris Miller" or a "state attorney". He is a hardcore CRIMINAL, operating from within an overseas boiler room trying to intimidate you into paying a debt you DO NOT OWE. Let him know the next time he calls you know this is an extortion scam, have NO intention of paying him anything, have turned him into the authorities and hang up. You also need to place fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus (your identity may have been stolen) and notify your bank and employer.

I received a phone call today saying that a warrant was going to be issued for me today in California for bank fraud attempt to defraud and money laundering for a payday loan I didn't pay back. He said if I was on probation or parole I better contact my officer and do I have a lawyer.   I asked for copies of the papers he told me I have to oay $575 to avoid being arrested when I told him he was threatening me and I wanted to see the letter he hung up on.  So I called back tl get it.  I call back he said he was the state attorney office named chris miller

Got a message at work from the secretary tha a Daniel Martin from the State Attorney's Office called.  Looked him up but it was a different number.  So I typed 951-223-6717 and of course I got this number as a scam.  I haven't talked to them but they are calling my job.  How can I get them to stop?

They claim to be clalling me from the law office of theirs claiming to have a lawsuit against my social security number for what reasons, I don't know.  GE money bank had supposedly claim a suit against me for  not  going through with a loan process because of suspected fraud on their end wanting me to pay money to borrow 5000 dollars that I was supposedly qualified for with no credit check. Bogus right.  It is kust so hard to trust anyone these days.

As soon as I read these comments I called back and go into their a** haha they won't be calling me again! Worthless people I swear...

This number call me at work today, the guy name is Richard Thomas and he was at attorney office but stated nothing else.

I finally called back and got through to adam spencer @the attorneys office lol couldn't tell me the name I informed him I'm able to reverse the number and find out exactly where. They're located and contact the attorney general he apologized and std I want rcve anyymore calls!! SCAMMMMMM!!! BEWARE!!

I received a phone call today and it std tthe same thing that I would need a attorney for my ssn I c alled back and no answer. This didn't start until I applied for online payday loans just only yesterday! This is a scam and I will be contacting the attorney general in reference to this. Watch what u do online anyone can get ur info!! B becareful besides I'm all to familiar wiith debt collecting!!!

i recieved a call around 2:30pm this afternoon asking me if i was aware of pending criminal charges against me regardidng my social security #  and asked if i had an aturney so i said to him no i do not have one at the moment but will have one emediatly after this call he then said to call back the # and ask to speak with the atturney chris miller who has my case...... phone continues to ring atlaest 5-6 times then drops call or goes blank i strongly beleive this is a scam after reading everyones comment.

The same thing happened to me today. He stated that I had 3 criminal charges against me with the California State Attorneys office.  He would not identify what company he was with nor would he provide any file numbers. I flat out told him that this was no way to conduct business and that I'm an upstanding citizen and I knew for a fact there are no criminal charges pending against me....He hung up!!!!!

Got a call from some indian/asian dude who told me a lawsuit had been filed against my social security number and that I needed to speak to a lawyer. When I asked him questions about the lawsuit he refused to answer. I told him not to call me anymore and hung up.

Mike Austin is threating that the sheriff is coming to place of business and  will lose my job if I or my attorney do return his calls. Who is this person and what scam is he trying to pull. I wish this country had harsher laws against this type of crime.

a Christopher Miller called me stating that i had criminal charges with the California State attorneys office when i asked him what the charges were he just kept repeating himself.
