Is anyone still getting these calls? Financial crime investigation?

Hey everyone-

This just happened to me and I googled it and found all your posts. I got a call from Officer James Franklin--he had a VERY thick accent like he was from India. I did stay on the phone for awhile to get as much info as I could but only have me Arrowhead Investment which I never heard of and that I owe $527.00. He said they were sueing me so I told him I work for an attorney (which I do) and that I wanted to know what court this was out of--he said "your local court" I said okay then I will go on the CT Judicial Website and look it up, once I said that he started laughing in my face and saying how I thought I was smarter then him etc. Wouldnt let me get a word in kept talking over me and repeating himself. They havent called my work yet and I hope they dont, how embarassing! Something should really be done this is so ridiculous. I hope someone doesn't actually fall for it:( Let me know if anything found a place to report this besides the police. Thanks :)

Can I just tell you this thread saved my behind? They said someone was trying to illegally import something into the country on my social and I could lose my job. Not sure how the 2 were related plus I couldn't decipher most of the message. I immediately called back and all of a sudden my dude was unavailable and they had no idea who I was, why I was calling nor could they clearly tell me who they were. Finding all this fishy, I called the department of social security and they told me all this was preposterous (phew!) Didn't think anything of it till they started calling again, multiple times per day all with different reasons for what I'm in violation of. So I googled and here I am. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Received a call from these people today from 'Officer Mark Woods' with the same threats you all have been getting. Called our Sheriff, who called them at the number they gave 607-622-3006. They said the same stuff to the Sheriff and hung up on him, as they had me. I called back and talked to a 'Frank Miller', who told me to send payment by Western Union to him, not a company name, and when I questioned him further he hung up on me again. Called Sheriff again & reported to Credit Report companies also. I live in Utah, so it seems they may be spreading out. Told me they were in Georgia! This phone number is out of Bath, New York. Thanks for your warning!

They are definitely a scam. Have been calling on and off for several months now. Nothing to worry about...they hardly speak English and when you call them on it such as for proof of debt, phone number, address, etc they either hang up or start yelling. So just hang up if you answer...caller id is a great thing...don't answer if you don't know it even if it's a local number because they can spoof it to look local like one previous poster said. I actually had one leave a message calling herself Sandy Rivera and she was clearly Indian or middle eastern. It's unfortunate that people have probably panicked and paid these idiots something.

I recieved a call from a lady named "Officer" Jenny Williams. She said I had committed a crime by not paying back an internet payday loan. My account has been closed and she said if I did not pay I would be in offense of a capital crime. The number was (646)770-2937. She told me I was going to go to jail! It scared me to death. I was at work and she leaves long messages with my coworkers saying for me to call an officer with the financial crime investigation department. Are these the same people you are speaking about? Curious?????

Even if it isn't the same company, there's several of these outfits that use the same scam. If you're getting calls at work, you can tell your co-workers that a scam artist somehow got your personal info and that if they call up, your co-workers should just hang up. More than likely the people that are calling you aren't even located in the U.S. (although many of them use bogus US phone #s). I "googled" the phone # 646 770 2937, and there's LOTS of complaints out there about this #. If they call again, hang up on them.

Just got a call @ WORK!!!!!!! 661-368-5803 FREAKIN RIDICULOUS!!!

I get them to, and they cant even pronounce my name correctly.They leave me messages on my cell phone, saying this is a crime and i have been warned and if i dont call them back i will get arrested..well for one, i know you cant be "served" over the phone..and 2 i know its a scam so i just ignore it

You can't be served over the phone per say, but if it were a criminal matter (which it's not) you would not be served, there would be a warrant issued. Totally different matter/process. It is just a scam, trying to trick folks into sending money, but what worries me is are the PDL's selling this info to these people? If so, then that is a bigger problem.

I am SO glad I found this website. I got several messages from them threatening to get me arrested. My fiance knew something wasn't right so he called them back for me and they didn't know who I was. He supposedly spoke to three people and each sounded like the same person. My fiance kept telling me something wasn't right. As he was talking with them I googled the company and found this. Then finally the guy supposedly found my info and said I owed money to Cashnet USA. I KNEW they were lying because I paid off the pay day loan years ago. My fiance told the guy he was a scam artist and demanded proof of this debt. The man hung up and didn't call back. I am so glad I found this website because I was about to send them money.

Yes I did receive a call from some heavy asent, Indian type person, saying the same thing that I had gotten a loan ,wich I never had gotten, but he said I was going to get arrested I asked for information but he says is cofedential, this is rediculis.
I never.had gotten a loan im pretty sure I would rememnber.he refuses to send me any information or tell me anything but that if I dont pay it that im going to get arrested.

When I told them that they called me from two different number and I told them I have reported them to the FBI they start calling me a B this man name was Daniel White.

Typical BS. Stop answering the phone!

Wow, the last poster is literally illiterate. I could barely understand what he/she was trying to get across here. I guess it is one of those over seas scammers.

Hornek, I did not mean that you are illiterate! I meant that troll who could barely write (wait, couldn't write!). :)

No offense taken. I understand :D

PROFESSIONAL YOU DUMB SHIT! YOU NEED TO JUST TALK AND NOT TYPE.
