I have been receiving calls for months from " out of area" Today they started to leave a message for someone (not anyone at this address or number) threatening that " the state attorney general will put you in jail before Christmas". Then proceeded to leave the 214-446-5229 number to call back. This number is answered "attorney's office"by the same foreign sounding person. The third time they called me back, I picked up the phone and was told they are "the bureau. of crime investigation". The caller proceeded to tell me that he was calling for an individual with my same last name ( and ours is very common) that is not us. Then he lied and said that this person gave me as a reference. This is not true as the name used is not anyone that I know or have even heard of.

I asked for company information and was given what I believe to be a false address. It was a law firm with "3225" lawyers called "Maldon & Sullivan" at 4815 Volaris Straight Jacksonville, Florida 32205-4972. Then this guy got "hardcore" with me telling me I would go to jail if I kept covering up for this other person. I gave up...told him to never call back and hung up.

Of course, I know that a 214 number is the Dallas, Tx area code. So I feel the address is also a scam. I did save the voice mail with the threat of jail and the social security number in it.

Everything you've described fits a scam that's been going on for sometime...

Debtors don't get arrested and taken to jail.

The accent is probably from India where most of this originates.

They have general information and work to convince they know about some obscure debt.

I've heard they are superstitious and you can just tell them you're going to put a hex on them...I really don't know, but can't hurt to try.

Sorry they've been causing you concern.
