I usually never answer calls from unknown numbers. Boy am I sorry I did today. First a call came in from 2180022, then from 298-486-2536. A random lady said that I was going to be charged with fraud and like three other things. When I told her that I have no idea what she's talking about, she told me that she was going to transfer me to the attorney handling my case. A 'Daniel Brown', from Michael Thompkins Law, (contact number: 206-203-7293) came on the line to give me the rundown about my case. Apparently, I've borrowed money from some online payday loan company and 'whenever repayment was attempted, it was declined due to insufficient funds or whatnot. So they will be filing against me today, coming to my house tomorrow, and showing up at my job on Monday. They actually had me spooked enough to call my attorney. Thankfully, a rep at the firm gave me the good advice to research/Google this alleged firm. I've come across this site and others talking about this scam. I am seething with anger. These people must be stopped. I know folks need jobs, but this scam is ruthless and ridiculous.
