Complaint Review: State finanical investigations

..and there are so many..the only limit is your imagination.

You either have them on your caller ID..or it comes up as "unknown caller".

Next time you get a call from them..if you recognize the number from the caller ID..or it says "unknown"..answer the call as such.."Federal Bureau of Investigation, how may I direct your call"..

I bet the caller hangs up at the speed of light... and you will be bothered no more. Use a stern robotic voicing.

Ronny is right it is a scam . Like I said in 1 of my responses Tell this caller by name that a really bad hex has been put on him. Tell this caller if he continues to call it will get stonger and stronger and when it gets to the strongerst point he will die a horrible death. I did this to a scammer and it worked he never called again.

..You are being SCAMMED. Do not worry about it.

Now what you may want to worry about...is when you state something like this and I quote.."  I ask for the name of the company he gave me US cash adavance, but i am pretty sure i never use that one..."

"Am pretty sure" is not good enough.  US cash advance is a Payday loan..or short term rip off loan. Either you applied for one and submitted personal information and this is how the scammers have all your personal info they are now using to scare you.....or you did indeed receive a loan. Only YOU would know if you received a loan.(For example it would be funds that you were given as to borrow.. and must re-pay).

 Have you received a loan ever?  If not..don't worry. If so, ask them to send you the proper documentation as evidence that you owe anything to anyone. If so, pay it back.

I the guy (troy russel) kept calling and saying that he is going send my file through the court. I looked up my credit report and called all the companies that i would old money to and i dont except for one and it was not a payday loan and nothing around 3000.  I ask for the name of the company he gave me US cash adavance, but i am pretty sure i never use that one .. so my question to everyone is that i was wondering if you can check if there is something against you in the court system ...

I have not had this happen to me but I read about this all the time and the reports are all very similar.

Somehow the scammers do have personal information about the victim and it is accurate. So this causes the victim to believe it is a real agency calling and that they will follow up with the threats.

I have a sound theory. I notice in the report that payday loan is mentioned. These are often the biggest scams ever. And when victims are surfing the web for a loan, they submit a lot of personal information..and often charges as well appear on the account with mysterious names that do not let the victim know it was from the payday loan website. If you think about the type of information a payday loan application would ask (where you work or have worked and for how long, your salary and other sources of income, bank accounts, credit cards, loans, mortgage, car payments,phone numbers, addresses, your references/friends/family etc etc)..well I would imagine that they can use this info to scare the bejesus out of anyone.

So certainly a scam business like a payday loan website who operate in a highly unethical manner to begin with, would have no reservations to sell this personal information to the scammers, who then use this to scare the victim into sending money. Or perhaps some may doing it themselves.

People should be more careful who they give account and personal information out to online, that would greatly cut down on this scam. Personal information and account information is not something they guess or found or hacked from your computer..someone at one time or another with access to this information had to voluntarily submit it online to a scam site, and then the troubles begin.

As far as what to do..for starters as suggested..tell them you know this is a scam and hang up. I like the suggestion about the hex..why not have a little fun with these a-holes while you are at it?

Do they have a heavy accent?

If so,These a******s are calling from India or Pakistan using fake American sounding names, their scam is To scare you into paying a Loan that doesn't exist.

Usually by saying they're Officer(Fake American Name) Obvious clue, the heavy accent, hard to understand, or cannot understand this (American Name) Officer?

Their Game plan is to scare you by threats like "Have the police at your door" or "Warrant has been signed" or "You're in big trouble", "You've committed BANK FRAUD" or similar lies.

They usually say they're from "The Department of LAW and Investigation" or similar scary FAKE NAMES (recently they used United Nations Law Division, and more recently the ACS Law division, and more recently 1st IRS Legal Dept, today they're another name)

You're NOT in trouble, they're just good Liars, Pay them NOTHING, they're only Slimy thieves.

Recently they've been changing names at the speed of light, and they use a telephone relay so they look like they're calling in America, they're NOT. This is another name, but the same scammers.

OR IF YOU WANT PROOF THEY'RE THIEVES Tell them to send you verification there's any "Debt" at all, if they start screaming at you, that's proof positive that they're just thieves.

When/if they call again tell them they're just thieves and hang up, they can't arrest you, It's just a scam

Stacey is right its nothing but a scam . When you ask for more imformation and they start yelling like that . That right there will tell you this SOB is a scammer.

I would say something to him that would really scare him bad. I would tell the caller that a really bad hex has been put upon him and if continues to make these calls it will get stronger and stronger and if he continues to call he will die a horrible death.

I did that to a scammer and it worked. I really scares the sh-- out of him and he never called again

That is all they are - do not worry because there is nothing they can do to you. When they call back tell them YOU know it is a scam and hang up!
