This type of scam has been going on for awhile. Someone "spoof's" a number on a computer. This is where someone with the technology, can type in a phone number and make it look like someone from that phone number is or has called them. When they see (for example) Bank of America on the caller ID, people assume it is safe. IT IS NOT! Your Bank will NEVER call you and ask you your account number. It is next to impossible to trace or track the actual nuber and location they are using. You can make a report to your local police and/or Secret Service Office, since they are stealing securities. Keep a log of the dates and times and if you can what was said. You do not have to answer these calls. These individuals have scared elderly into thinking that they are with some law enforcement agency and if they did not pay money right now, their grandson or daughter was going to jail. This is not true!
Pass this information on!

About 2 weeks ago I started getting calls from "Mac Dawson", "Ross Taylor", "Joe Marshall".  It began with they said I owed them $500 for a Payday Loan I received but never paid it off.   I asked them who was the company, they would not tell me.  They had my cell number, my work number and have continued to call me for the pas two weeks.  Today it got really bad.  I told them flat out I wasn't paying them and they need to stop harrassing me and if I owed them I wanted to see the original contract.  They said I hadn't seen harrassment and they said they had 1500 people working for tham and they would have all of them call my work.  They kept calling when I didn't answer my phone rolled over to 3 of my co workers.  They asked the co worker who to forward them to my manager.  They asked who was my manager's supervisor and the owner of the company.  They were of Middle Eastern/Indian decent.  I called the Dept of Consumer Affairs in my state.  They told me to tell them to send me the original contract I signed and to "assit & decease"  If I continue to receive the calls they recommded I call teh Attorney General of the USA, which I will do.  I was very scared.

They call me almost everyday from multiple numbers including 347-289-3901.  I have made a police report and changed my cell number...now they call my office.  Everytime they call me i call them back and harass them back!!  I kept calling the other day and probably called them every name in the book. They wouldn't answer..I kept blowing the number up until finally they started answering saying they were the grand hotel...they really don't like when you harass them back..lol.  Anyway they accuse me of the same things that I owe some payday loan and the police told me to ask for documentation which they never send.  Frank, Robert and Jack keep calling only they don't sound like that would be their names of course they sound Indian decent....Today I am just getting my office number changed I'm sick of playing games with these people!

Same as above. It is a scam. They have hacked someones website and got information. That's how they have all your info. They claim to be at 3001 new York rd Brooklyn ny 12005. Joe Marshall was the callers name. Needless to say I have turned it over to the police.

The latest evolution of the "pay day collections" scam. Instead of claiming to be from law enforcement, they claim they are from a debt consolidation service that is contacting you because of an "impending action against your name and social security number".
