I just got a call from this number or this is the number he gave me to call back and the person that answers keeps hanging up on me when I call back. I got a similar call last week and have now decided to call the FTC and the FBI about this. I started to laugh at him and told him I knew it was a scam and he said "You are laugh at me!" In perfect English of course. I knew it was a scam from the start because I haven't taken a payday loan out, and to top it off he said that my references were going to be arrested as well, or what? knowing me? Right. Then he asked if I had any previous charges and when I told him no he still went on to say he would inform my employer of my past criminal activity. I laughed again and asked if he thought I would get fired for a speeding ticket since that is the lengthy record I have and he gave me a bogus number to call back in the morning and to pay them or I would be "drag behind bar" and "spoke to the Judge" in the morning. Give me a break, if this keeps up I will visit the police in LA at the end of the month when I am out their on business and file a local report as well.
