I received a call from this number today. She stated that her name was Karen Smith and that I or my attorney needed to call her back as soon as possible and if I didn't well then "good luck." I returned the call, they answered Bureau of Credit Investigation. They told me that I had taken out a payday loan and that I needed to wire the payment today or they would see me in court. They could not give me the name of the company, or any other information. They did have a LOT of my personal information. I have never in my life taken out a payday loan. When I called back they were extremely rude. Finally they said the loan was with Advanced Payday (or something to that effect.) I needed to western union $895.00 to Dianna Nguyen in Houston Texas today or tomorrow the police would be here to arrest me and put me in jail. Surely to goodness no one would fall for such a scam.
