yes, I am ANOTHER victim of these callers! i received numerous voicemail calls this past week from 718-831-7157. ALL where from men who seemed to be far east indian (or something like that). Whenever i tried to call back the phone would constantly ring and then a busy signal. But anyway, when i was actually able to reach the caller(s) the first gentleman identified himself as Roy Brown and said he was with the "united ??? Division" and that there was a class action suit being filed against my s.s.#. He said my name and wanted me to verify my s.s.#! when i asked what company he represented he said that i had to answer his questions first. Since I had a hard time with his accent, another caller was placed on the phone "Officer Roy Campbell". when I asked the company name one more time he said that it was the "united legal investigation bureau"! Well... he became upset/irate because i kept interrupting him. He told me to "shut my big fat mouth" so that he could finish the list of questions he had to follow! and when that didn't work he proceeded to tell me that the police would be at my home/job within 24 hours and come monday i would be arrested! :) I asked where this company was located and who were they representing.He told me it was located on 537 N. West Street and why did i want this information. (then he said "what? are you going to come visit my office or something?"!) He must have forgotten that he told me the "call was being recorded" :) then he slammed down the phone.
I, of course, called back because the whole thing seemed strange. This caller identified himself as "Travis" and asked if i could hold the line while he got a glass of water! (yes, this company REALLY has nerve)! I hung up. Unfortunately, i received TWO more calls/voicemails after i hung up!
NOW i have to contact the credit agencies. Unfortunately, I do not know if this company has my correct s.s.# because I wouldn't let them finish the sentence before I started asking questions!
EVERYONE PLEASE DO NOT verify ANY information (not even your name!) contact your local police immediately as i have.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL.
