I recieved a message on my cell that said, "Yes, my name is Mike Johnson with the Law Office of Marshall and Ziolkowski. Uhh, its extremely important you contact me reguarding a suit, its a fraud investigagtion being taking place out of Bakersfield, California. Now you can reach me at 800-690-6293, direct line is 125. You're also going to have to referr to case number ******-***, thank you."
I was a little shocked to recieve a call like that, so I called the number back. The man answering did answer, "Law Office of Marshall and Ziolkowski". I asked for extention 125, and he asked who I was trying to reach. I again stated extention 125, and he again asked for the name of the person I was calling. I asked why I was giving an extention number if they did not have an extention system set up, and he skipped over my question and again asked for a name. I informed him I was trying to get a hold of a Mike Johnson, and he placed me on hold. I didn't hold but eight to ten seconds, and then I was greeted by, "hello". I asked who I was speaking with, and he told me he was Mike Johnson and I said I was calling about a case number, I gave it to him and he placed me on hold while he got the file from his secratary. At this point I hung up. I found it strange they didn't have the extention system in place, yet I was given an extention in my message. Also, he did not thank me for holding, or even greet me with his name. I got a really bad feeling about the whole thing, so I trusted my instinct and hung up. Upon doing so, I got right on my computer and started searching for information on the name and phone numbers I had. That's when I came across a lot of sites informing me of them illeagal actions and scams. I wanted to take a moment to thank all those of you who have taking the time to post your experiences with these bad people. It has saved me time, and possibly money in dealing with these mad men.
