530-328-0104

I received a call today from (530) 328-0104 the man calling claimed to be from the "back office of a law firm" prosecuting me for; the violation of federal banking regulations, collateral check fraud, and theft by deception, due to an overdue account with Cash Advance. He claimed that he could not give me the exact date of the loan or the amount that was supposedly deposited to my account. However, he did claim that my current amount due, including late fees and interest, was $561.27 and that the amount was written off as stolen on Jan 11, 2011; but again wouldn't provide me with the date I was supposedly given this loan or the actual amount I would have received. I pressed him for the name of his law office and he claimed he was from the Bureau of Fraud Investigation (BFI) and that they delt in Cyber Crimes. He also told me that it was not a collection agency, but because he found me to be a “genuine individual of the United States” he would work with me and asked me if I was willing to talk to his restitution office. I was eager to get more information so I agreed. The restitution officer told me he would need me to send a fax to (408) 608-0307. The Fax needed to be worded as:

Attn Officer Green

I Heather Weber have an outstanding balance of $561.27. I’ll be making the entire payment of $561.27 today to take care of this issue.

He than asked for my credit card information. I asked him if I could make the payment tomorrow so that I would have a chance to check on this loan with my bank. After a hesitation “to talk to his attorney” he told me that would be fine but in order to do that I needed to send a fax today. This fax should include my entire credit card information; my name as it appeared on the card, the card number, the expiration date, and the 3 digit security code. He also asked for a photo copy of my drivers licence or social security card, because he needed “photo identification proof,” as well as a second letter stating that I would not dispute this transaction. He assured me that the card would not be charged until tomorrow, needless to say I have not sent any such fax.

An Indian man continues to call me with a fishy story. He has all my contact info and says I owe his company $ from a payday advance, which I might add, I have never taken out. He is relentless and calls multiple times per day. He hung up on me today when I advised that our phone conversation was being recorded, and that I had reported him to the FBI. It is a scam. DO not give any financial info if this should happen to you.

Received a fishy phone call from an alleged telemarketer who refused to provide his name and the company's name. During the short conversation, he tried to offer a debt consolidation solution but there was a 2-3 seconds delay in the conversation and I notice that my echoes which could only mean I was pit on speaker.
