Anybody know who this guy is? He stated that I should contact him or my attorney and if I do not contact him right away (very thick foreign accent) that he wished me "good luck", then stated his number twice, and never said who he was with or what he was calling about. I do not believe that I have any outstanding PDL out there. I am paying one debt off that is a past due Credit Card and paid off all of my other PDL. Someone help. Just when you think everything is OK you get one of these phone calls.

Shawn Robertson (very heavy Indian accent) at 917-464-2534 called me attempting to extract $1986 by 9:00 AM on March 13th, 2008. Says he's attempting to collect a debt but was not specific as to who I owe the debt to. The alleged debt amount is for two payday loan transactions for $300 each taken out on 9-6-2005 according to him. He did have my bank account information (since closed), my SS# and my email address. Says that his client is Financial Crime Prevention Division and that the debt is originally going to IBM. Says that he doesn't really care if I pay and that his client just wants to "see me behind bars." I asked him to provide documentation for verification of the debt; says that his "client" attempted to email me with no response. Says that they do not do correspondence by regular mail - all is done via email according to contract. Again, I am still unclear if this is a legitimate debt. He said if I wanted to resolve the matter, I could pay by money order or by debit card. He said that he is in Manhattan and that he would call my local county courthouse in the morning to have me arrested if I didn't pay by that morning.
I went to the FTC.gov website and filed a complaint. Not sure what else I can do.
