I was called today by a Inidian man named Alan Johnson. Stating that I took out a loan on Dec. of 2010. He also stated that hes going to call my job and tslk to my supervisor. He told me the police will be at my house at 11 am, so be perpared to go to jail. I asked him what courthouse was thsi civil claim filed at , and he couldbn't tell me. An I asked him what the docket number was, he gave me some number, but docket numbers are only for criminal cases. If its a civil suite you would recieve a summons.... This crap is a scam and I need to figure out how to get him too stop. He "Paralegl" is using one of those voice overs, becauses he probably the same person.

    They are a bunch of overseas Indian scammers.

    The "debt" is fake, as are the threats.

    I have received a couple of calls from them. They called me today on my cell phone while at work and were pushy so i pushed back and told them i was at work, which is illegal for them to harass me at work and told them to give me the short version. they said they were representing cash advance america  and i have a default on a loan. knowing who i owe, i knew it was a scam and stated they have to provide me a written copy of the claim as well as the person who is pursing me's contact number and they said they couldnt send me anything. I said if they can't send me anything, then i will just wait and my attorney will reply to them and if it is a scam, i have their number and reporting them to the FBI internet scam office and they said  thank you and hung up pretty quick.

    Now this has to be the exact same guy I have been getting harrassed by to where I had my friends come to my house that were the local police and actually talk to the "indian" man..Told me that he was Detective Harry Williams. They asked to speak to his supervisor and he switched his voice over into a woman. It had the cop laughing telling him what a joke he was. The calls continued though and each time they had given a different name but all sounded the same. We traced the call to VA..Am I thinking that you all are getting the same harrassing voicemails? They would call and leave at least 5 voicemails back to back on my cell. It got to be so bad that I had to switch phone #'s for a loan that I would never take out in a million years.
    I also had to check into my credit situation to make sure that they had not done anything to tarnish my history with any of my creditors. I did though go to a man I know that goes after harrassing debt collectors and has won. He is very good at what he does and makes sure that you are entitled to everything that is owed.  We are victims here and we cannot be taken advantage of like this. It had me so stressed out that I would be missing calls from people because I was having to shut off my phone! No one should have to live like this.

    Here is the info. Let him help you make your life a little bit easier like he did mine.

    These scams usually try to get money transfered via Western Union or Moneygram, or else they send their victims to Walmart to buy a prepaid debit card.  Since the latter takes longer and the victim is more likely to find out it's a scam before they follow through, they prefer the former.

    You should file a BBB complaint against Western Union and Moneygram for failing to provide clear warnings against these fake "debt collector" scams on their website.

    Moneygram settled with the government, agreeing to warn consumers about scams.

    They haven't updated their warnings in years.

    Court Halts Alleged Fake Debt Collector Calls from India, Grants FTC Request to Stop Defendants Who Often Posed as Law Enforcement
    At the request of the Federal Trade Commission, a U.S. district court has halted an operation that the FTC alleges collected phantom payday loan “debts” that consumers did not owe.  Consumers received millions of collection calls from India, and that since January 2010 the operation took in more than $5 million from victims, according to the FTC.
