This number called this morning left no message but my caller id said Food Emporium. I am always suspicious of unknown numbers so I looked it up. This is the last time they will get through thanks to a nifty little app called youmail, just sent them to my ditch list.

I LOVE THIS IDEA!!!!! I might start doing this!!! They called my friends and family and worried my cousin sick.  I think more people should join the cause but get all the phone numbers tried...theres others I was just reading similar forums!

These people called me twenty times yesterday telling me that if I didn't pay them the 800 dollars I owed them they were calling the cops. Later they called saying I needed to pay 20000 dollars or they will send the cops to arrest me and contact my job. They kept harassing me all day so I went to the cops and told them. They said it was a scam and if they continue to call contact them again and file crimal harassment againest them. This number the guy told me his name was Brett farve and worked for the national crime center in NY. There is no such thong and I knew it was a scam as soon as he said his name. They only know the last four of my SS # and bank account. I'm not worried I have Lifelock and they said they dobt have anything. They are scams and what so ever don't give them money and be nice to them harass them right back and they will leave you alone. If they know your vunlerable they will continue to call you.

Allen Hill called me threatening with a lawsuit for not paying back a payday loan in Nov. 2007. Never received a letter or phone call from US Cash Advance. He wanted me to pay over the phone and I told him that I would not do that. I had these creepy calls before. I think these Indian speaking people are illegal bill collectors. There not get anythng from me. I would rather here it from the real source. A judge would say the same thing.

Got a message on my cell phone earlier. I have contacted the attorney generals office plus sending info to my attorney. He left his name as John Gates and that he was from {said I had allegations against my [BCI] Bureau of Criminal Investigations and that myself or my attorney needed to contact him and this was a very time sensitive issue. Wished we could nail these fools

Sorry for the earlier message it is all scrambled. This John Gates said he was from the burueau of criminal investigation. Said I had allegations against my name. Said either myself or my attorney needed to call him and that this was a time sensitive issue. Wished we could catch these fools

Recieved a call from this number Saying his name was Calvin Gleason saying that he was from the Bureau of Criminal Investigations stating that I owed $200.00 from a payday loan that I never recieved. In the messege he said that if I didn't return his call I would be in for a F__king suprise. My wife called him back and confronted him about this and when she asked what the suprise was he said he was going to send his guy's up to beat me up. We will see what happens.

Just received a phone call the number came up as 0000
                                                                         0000 so of course I didn't answer told me to call back or I will face criminal charges but I could not understand most of what he said but at the end he said I will have to answer to God.

Just a follow up I listened to the message again and heard the name given was also Calvin Gleason.

i got a call saying its an important legal matter but thy couldn't tell me what it is about. So I read the other posts and decided not to call. A company in new york called me before and i sent them money about $900 dollars. Then 3 months later a company in florida called me saying i owed 1200 dollars or i will go to jail so i paid that. This is happening about every three months and I'm not calling them back. I have had enough.I have lost over 2500 dollars that i cannot  afford. So i will rather go to jail. Send it to me in writing and i will respond. Here is the florida number if any of you get called. His name was John Smith he talked with a bad accent (863)6233144. I hope this helps someone.

Yes just received a call where Mr. Brown or was it Mr. Smith this time - same name on the phone  anyways I turned it into the local police and the attorney generals office as he is threatening me on the phone gonna put me in jail, criminal things will happen and he says God only help me - if I don't do what he says.  Guess what I don't know who he is - he sounds like he is from some foreign country but his phone number come s up New York  917 - 522-0683  - he does not intimidate me.  I'm gonna let the Attorney Generals Office in New York State know as well.

Keep getting calls from this number.  Last time they said it was from "Officer Andrew Johnson from BPI" regarding a legal matter.  If anybody wants to sue me, they can find me.  This is fraud.  Other messages from same number say that they're calling from the ATF Dept. Criminal Investigations.  This dept doesn't exist.  Also, they claim to have American names but interestingly enough, they sound middle eastern.  How can I stop these calls? They harrass me at work and at home.  I have no idea who they are.

an Indian guy called saying his name is Andrew Johnson. he claimed to be a police officer. he asked for my ss number while yelling at me over the phone. when i said no, he said he had it and gave it out over the phone. what kind of cop does that? he then said that he`s going to block my ss number and arrest me in 30 mins. the guy called from new york while im elsewhere in the country! the number he called from is 917.522.0683. it`ll show up on caller id as 911. he is rude and yells at you. he`ll say he`s a cop but wont give a police dept name or info. he`ll keep calling and will leave nasty messages on vm. if u hang up, he`ll call back and say why u hung up on him!

Got a call from 9175220683. I missed the call but redialed and when they asked for my information, I hung up. They then proceeded to call 20 more times and then from a 1-911 number 20 more times. Very irritating. The message they left on my cell was almost unintelligible from the thick accent but it was definitely a bogus threat.

After finding out from T-Mobile that my phone doesn't have blocking capabilities they told me to call my local police department on a non-emergency line. The officer was really nice and only asked if I had clicked on any loan ads on the internet that may have give this "hank johnson" my information. The officer from my local pd called the number and went round and round with them. End result the officer had them remove my number from their system and I was told not to answer any more phone calls from them again.

On a side note, the real police officer said he gets a bunch of these a month and by the time they can get any real charges drawn up, the number is disconnected.

They called me this morning saying that I would be arrested in 30 minutes but I need to record my social number _ ha... Scam.. this is so lame.. becareful everyone ... the number he used is 863-623-3144 and the name he used is John Smith from the ( criminal investigation bureau) whatever.. hope that this helps someone...

917-522-0683 & 518-649-8082 are fraudulent officers/bill collectors. DO NOT send them money.

My friend and secretary received a phone call from this number. They left a long message on my friend's answering machine. They told her that if they did not hear from me within a certain amount of days they will proceed with the case and press legal charges. I have been getting a lot of calls from different numbers. I am up to date with all of my pay day loans and there are not any judgements on my credit report. I think this is a scam.

Just a follow up on Allen and his fake firm. I did not receive anymore phone calls from this strange man or his so called officers, after I told him not to call my number again or I would call the police. However, please note that it's not that these crooks are afraid of the law, because they know that they can not be caught. You have to be the one to beat them in this filthy game of theirs. These people do not want to waste their precious time fooling around with wise people. They will just move on to the next victim. If you show them the least amount of vulnerability, then they believe that they have you and will try to interrogate and harrass you until they can get you to empty out your bank account. It's a very dirty game to win your money, rather if you really owe anything or not. I believe that their operations are too illegal for them to even think about takng you to court. I also believe that if the orinal source of who I actually owe money to that can't come clean and out in the open, was an illegal operation (PayDay Loan) in the first place. Either that, or it's pure identity theft; hackers stealing or buying information from an internal source. For one example: An online PayDay loan application;etc. But that's not it. I think our name and information is in some kind of hackers database, where not just one, but many illegal or foreign hackers have access to this information by purchasing it from a third party( the original hacker) and they make good money by contacting their leads (victims) trying to accuse them for a debt they do not or no longer owe, in hoping to make some big profits. And where does the money go? In their pockets, not to the so called debtors. I have basically cracked down these hackers systems. The wiser you get, the more they will leave you alone, trust me.

Different person called me from the same number: Claimed to be John Watson or John something. He asked me if I got his message and I told him no (which I did'nt). He asked me twice if I got the message and I told him no again. He sighed as if he was'nt interested in telling me what the deal was. So I asked him who he was and he told me from the Crime Enforcement Department. I cut him off and told him that there was no such thing and to do me a favor and not call my number again. I knew that this whole thing was bogus because I got a call one month ago from these same people. I have not received a letter, judgement, court order or anything legal regarding these crazy scammers and their hoax. Don't fall for their games. You can tell in their voice (which is foreign) and use of words that they are fake. Especially if you have no legal action pending against you. I check my credit report occassionaly. By law, they have to send something to you in writing after their first attempt to collect anything (that's if you owe anyone). One month later and nothing in writing. Just hang up the phone on these people. I did. They will eventually get tired of harrassing you and move on.

I also received a call from a John Watson stating he was from the National Crime Center.  Of course, I was stupid and bit.  I sent them $500 and the next day my bank calls and stated that put a stop on my debt card and checking account.  They also informed the attorney generals offices.  I was contacted by the attorney generals office and was told to not send any money.  When I told Mr. Watson that the attnorey generals offfice had called and said that if they called back to give them their number and they would explain things.  These people went as far as to say that we were on a three way call with the attorney generals office with one of them acting like he was that person.  I feel really stupid for falling for it in the first place but I have learned from my mistakes.  If one calls again I know to demand proof before sending a dime.  Thank goodness god was looking out for me.

This crazy stupid man has been calling me everyday, and every time he calls he ask for a different name...What do I do???? I will be forced to change my number cause of his stupid calls. I've called him and threathen to call the police, al he can tell me is that they r coming to my house right now to arrest me. What is going on?

AMEN!!

I fell for it too unfortunately and am out nearly $1,000. Now they are trying to get me again for a loan that I never even received! I threatened to file a formal complaint after I checked my statements from my old bank account just to confirm that the alleged funds were in fact never disbursed and this John Watson said to have the police call him. He told me I had ten minutes to come up with $1600 to settle or go to court and I better win because if not then I will be fined $15,000 in legal fees. Reading these other messages, he is not even consistent with the name of the company he works for. I was told it was the financial crimes and enforcement network and they represent a district court in NY.

This literally just happened to me but I find it funny they never directly called me, the called my family and friends saying that they needed to find me I owed them money and if I didnt come up with 20,000
that I was going to go away. My cousin a recipient of one of these calls, freaked out
of course and calls me to tell me what happened and to make sure I'm alright.  He was
smart and saved the number, extension and the persons "name" that he talked to.  I called
them myself because I didnt know what was going on.  The had alot of my personal information
which does scare me and I'll take care of that in the morning but I fought and argued with them.  And when I was too frustrated to speak, my mom got on the phone and cussed them out to.  I called the cops immediately, and they sent the sheriff's deputy out.  He tried to call them from his cell phone number and they wouldn't pick up.  We also called our lawyer, and the credit bureau just to make sure.  No matter what dont give in by sending money.  We asked for a physical street address, they wouldnt give us one.  We asked what company they were representing, they said they weren't that they were with the National Crime Center and then they asked us to send my info via email. My mom was like hell no, I want a mailing address CC: my attorney...you can take it up with him but not to call ever again to threaten to take me away.  It definitely ruined my evening and made me lose my appetite but I'm not going to give up by finding out as much as I can about them.  They know everything about me...well I want to know everything about them too and would prefer to find out when they're behind bars!

I routinely call  back the numbers posted here and tie these people up from getting any work done or scamming any money. I interrogate them, harass them back and bully them to the point of ethnic intimidation. Then I say to them, so karma is a b***h. How do you like being threatened. I tell them I am calling on behalf of all the people they have been calling and I even told them to come to this site and see how they are being exposed. I make it a habit in my free time to totally destroy these low life 3rd world trash. JOIN ME EVERYONE.

Some Mike Johnson called saying he was from the New York NCC National CrimeCenter and that I owed x amount money for a payday loan and if I would have called him back sooner it would have been cheaper but now with restitution and court cost it is now up too $3000.00 and if I dont pay it the officers will be there to pick me up.

Last week this man called saying he was Mr. Watson and today he is Mr. Johnston. How do I get rid of him.

A lady came to the Ocala Police Department, Ocala Florida, today to report that someone by the name of Mike called her at home and told her that if she didn't pay a bill she owed from November 2009 for $490.00 that someone would be at her home at 5:00pm today to arrest her and that they would also bring someone to take custody of her children. Contact was made with Mike who had an Indian accent and when questioned as to who he was and what company he represented hung up on the officer calling.  Mike also stated that he was from a Law Firm but did not release the name.

Just got a call from these people and he actually tried to tell me his buisness was part of the Federeal Government ! This after I told him pay day loans were illegal in NY state, and I worked for a lwyers office ! Idiots ! When I demanded the name of the buisness and a call back number I was told the name was NCC National Crime Center ! These people are a joke and barely speak english ! Recors anu phone calls they make to you, becasue they are lawsuit city with their tactics.
