BEWARE BEWARE --- THIS IS A TOTAL SCAM. I received a series of emails from this number on my Craigslist ad from a guy identifying himself as "John from NY". When I called the number a I got an automated screening answering machine for "Steven Johnson". In the emails he wanted to buy an item that was too heavy to ship using Pay Pal and he wanted all kinds of personal banking information so he could send me the purchase money. I wish I had a way of finding this guy so I could make a "personal delivery".

Wow! I'm so glad I went with my gut and researched these phone calls!!! I am very, VERY distressed that they are calling my work phone though and that it may be possible for them to also harrass anyone I put down as a reference. I have already warned the two people I believe I put down as references, which I would advise others to do. At any rate - Same M.O. as the rest of you. My calls were from "Steven Johnson" who had a very heavy Indian sounding accent. I have not actually spoken to anyone yet. I just happened to be away from my desk when he called. I probably would have picked it up if I had been here as I receive phone calls from all over the country every day I wouldn't have had any reason to be suspicious. He stated the last 4 digits of my SSN and said there was some sort of legal action being filed against me, it was all very vague which was another red flag to me. I called my home phone voicemail and there were THREE messages from him on it!!!! BUT, this is where they screwed up royally - he must have hit redial by accident or something because the second message he left he referenced a completely different persons name but said all of the same exact information but said the last for digits of that persons SSN. This is what immediately alerted me something was not right. From what I've read on other message boards, this scamming is rather common, most of it stemming from looking into or applying for pay day loans. How they get this info, I don't know. It seems that asking them for specifics or telling them you will be calling the authorities or telling them the call is being recorded has worked for people in terms of getting them to stop calling but I wish I knew how to actually pursue legal action.

He said his name was Steven Johnson. He had a foreign accent. He said that I owed money and if I don't pay it, criminal charges would be brought up against me. He has called my work, my family, and my cell phone frequently. I do not owe any money! This is a scam! Beware!

Caller said I was being sued for 3 counts of fraud. That I had taken out a PayDay loan which was unpaid. I have taken these out in the past but they are all paid. Caller had last 4 of my social and my work place. I feel deep down this is a scam. He said I needed to pay $400 tomorrow and balance on 9.3 or papers would be served at my place of employment or I could be arrested. He wouldn't tell me what the company was that claimed I had an unpaid loan.

Fraudulent IT company. Don't give them access to your computer. If you don't pay them, they'll install a cyclic reboot execute command on your computer. That's what they did to me.
