I received an alarming phone call from this number stating the gentleman by the name of Kevin Johnson was calling from the LEGAL DEPARTMENT OF UNITED PROCESSING DIVISION to inform me that I was being arrested for internet fraud and gave my SS#, bank account # and bank routing #.  He stated he needed my debit card # to process a fee of $640.00 to keep me from being arrested.  He told me that I had purchased something over the computer and it was illegal.  I have purchased items for an upcoming wedding BUT NOTHING ILLEGAL.  He would NOT tell me the company's name that I supposedly purchased from nor would he give me any telephone number or person to speak to at the supposedly department of state that would be arresting me.  I have since changed banks, etc.  THIS COMPANY IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED.

I received a call also from Kevin Johnson. I am having it investigated through my job.

i keep receiving calls saying that i am in trouble and owe money. at first i said i would pay if i really did owe. they told me to fax a letter or else the sherriff would be at my job.

We also received a call from them. First it was a man by the name of Richard stating my sister had used my personal information on a payday loan she had defaulted on. His English was incredibly hard to understand, so we asked to speak with a supervisor. Then Kevin Johnson came on (with SLIGHTLY better English) saying instead that she had committed fraud and that she had done it using my personal information. I told him that I didn't want to receive any more calls from them. He then proceeded to tell me that if he didn't hear from my sister TODAY that I would instead be in trouble. I told him he was full of crap and that I would be filing a harassment complaint against them. They are definitely using some shady tactics.

There is no debtors prison and you cannot be charged with fraud because you stopped paying your debt for whatever reason.  They are idiots and they expect that you are also.

I will tell you the best way to handle these losers.

Its very easy.  Here is their address:

"Consolidation Agency"
101 East Green Street
Ithaca, NY 14250


First Write a CEASE/DESIST letter demanding that they never try to contact you again by phone.  List the numbers they are calling and demand they stop.  This will stop the calls.  Remember to send using CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED

The go to this link:

Copy the letter and blast it off to them.  make sure you send it to them via CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. You might want to add some of your own words in the letters if you have been threatened.  
If you do not hear back from them in 30 days, then blast the
next letter off.

Here is the link to the followup letter:

So now I guarantee that you will not hear back from them.  Especially if you recorded threats such as "never letting you sleep again", or "i will come to you and take it from you", etc, and you mentioned having record of it in your letter.

Now here is how to get back at them after you get them off your back.
Act stupid and get them to just unleash fury.  Get it on tape.
get them to say ridiculous things.  It's not hard.  And then contact your attorney generals office for more details ;)

Sincerely,
