The caller is Kevin Smith - his accent is so thick I had trouble understanding when he spelled the name. Then he says 'I'm from litigation department'. I said for whom? He says
Advanced America cash advance. The call was really for my daughter who has NEVER had a payday loan or even applied so it makes me wonder where the information came from. When I argued with 'Kevin' he said his supervisor would explain. The supervisor was 'jack smith'. Hmmm brothers or limited imagination? I said I have never had a payday loan ( and, btw, I could not find 'advanced America cash advance' on any website. He assured me that the company had over 300 websites which means bank fraud (I don't know how he got those dots connected!) He said he would not argue with me and I would have to deal with a summons where I work. He did have some correct info about my daughter and our info. It's creepy and they need to be stopped.

An Indian with a very heavy accent supposedly named James Jackson just called my employer asking for me.  I had my receptionist put the call into voicemail.  I could barely understand this guy.  What I did make out was that he's supposedly from some litigation department and that I was not to disregard this call.  He ended by wishing me luck.  This is an obvious scam and I am in no way worried. However, I am furious that these people call my work!  This is so illegal and it needs to stop!!!

This is a criminal extortion ring operating out of India. ABC News released an investigative report on it in June. The FTC has indicted one of its ringleaders for criminal fraud:

My manager received the same threatening call at work from this number (name was James Henry on the voice mail).  Nothing on the message of what the call is about other than "do not disregard....call back NOW.....you will be sorry if you don't call back".  We've referred the call to our Global Security Office for handling.

I have received three, yes three back-to-back-to-back calls from 714-841-6447 from a Mr Eric Joesph who had a very, very thick Indian accent.  I told Mr. Joseph from the outset that the phone call was being recorded for both my protection and his.  He then goes on to tell me that my husband is the one who they are processing the complaint against.  First off my husband never, ever has applied for or even looked into a pay day loan.  He has a line of credit from his bank so that would not be something he would be in need of had he needed extra cash.  Secondly I told this person that they were running an "organized crime scheme" emanating from India and this recording was going to be turned over to the local law enforcement and also to the FTC & FCC because they are in direct violation of the laws governing these types of phone  calls. At this point Mr. Joseph got defensive and started to yell and I just let him start but then cut him off by saying that wished "good luck and God bless you" and hung up!!!  I know that had to just grind him right in his stomach as this is what they tell everyone before trying to scare the living daylights out of them.

DON"T LET THESE SCUMBAGS INTIMIDATE YOU!!!  THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A DEBTOR'S PRISON FIRST OFF.  SECONDLY, CALLING YOUR PLACE OF WORK IS ILLEGAL.  IF THEY DO THIS, TAKE THE REPORT, NOTE THE TIME AND IMMEDIATELY CALL YOUR STATE ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE OR CALL THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO REPORT THEM.  REFER TO THE BRIAN ROSS INVESTIGATION THAT ABCNEWS DID.  GET AS MUCH INFORMATION AS YOU CAN, ALSO REFER BACK TO  KIRIT PATEL AND ALSO GOOGLE HIS ATTORNEY IN SACRAMENTO, MARK ELLIS (916-283-8820 (ph), 916-283-8821 (fax), email; MEllis@EllisLawGrp.com).  CONTACT THIS MAN AND LODGE A COMPLAINT WITH HIM REGARDING THESE CALLS. THIS PATEL DUDE IS UP TO HIS EYEBALLS IN THIS ORGANIZED CRIME RING AND TO ME RICO STATUES SHOULD APPLY.
