Called repeatedly and left messages that there was a warrant for my arrest, and I would be arrested the following morning. I called back and was told there was a complaint associated with my SSN and I owed $1020.00 on a loan I had taken out. I told him I had never taken out a loan in that amount, and I had not open loans or I would have seen it on my credit report. He pushed and pushed but I researched his number and the company. I asked him to explain to me why his company wasn't real, and he said other people put false information on the internet and tried to direct me to a website that consisted of a lot of random letters. I told him I would not go to that website, I was researching the name of the company he originally identified and nothing else. He hung up on me, and not surprisingly I was not arrested this morning. I found out from a co-worker that the website he was trying to direct me to will give your computer a virus, so don't go to it.
