Zaskakująco, wiele zgłoszeń wskazuje na powtarzające się schematy oszustw telefonicznych, które wykorzystują presję czasową i groźby prawne. Najważniejsze jest identyfikowanie nieznanych numerów przed oddzwonieniem oraz blokowanie podejrzanych połączeń w ustawieniach telefonu lub za pomocą aplikacji antyspamowych. Warto zapisywać szczegóły rozmowy – numer, czas, treść – aby móc zgłosić incydent operatorowi i właściwym organom ochrony konsumentów. Nie podawaj danych osobowych ani finansowych, a w przypadku podejrzenia oszustwa skontaktuj się z bankiem lub firmą, której rzekomo ma dotyczyć sprawa, używając oficjalnych kanałów kontaktowych.
I want to stop recieving SMS
The number 333 seems to be relevnt to this conversation.
My patience is wearing thin from receiving multiple texts per minute since morning from this number.
Please STOP calling
A query is raised about calls from a Brian Shelton with a specific phone number, who made threats of court and jail time without disclosing the reason and declined to provide further information when asked to verify the social security number.
After receiving four calls, including messages at work, I finally answered and was informed of alleged fraud charges due to a defaulted payday loan, which I knew to be false. The caller had access to my personal information, including my SS#, workplace, and bank details.
Be aware of this number and its association with a potential scammer named John Ricardo.
I recieved a call from a law firm called Alex Rogers, the person had a heavy indian accent and a american name, sounded alot like a scam
It is essential to be cautious with this scam, avoiding any engagement or disclosure of information, and considering close monitoring of credit reports, as the caller, claiming to be Officer Eric Best with a thick Indian accent, may have access to sensitive information.
The caller, who went by the name Bo Martin but likely uses various aliases and has a heavy Indian accent, harassed and threatened me, stating that if I didn't pay $5000, I would face jail time. They advised against seeking legal representation and claimed to be from the Bureau of Criminal Investigations, yet failed to provide any requested information and continuously interrupted my attempts to speak. After filing a police report and contacting the FTC and credit bureaus, I have taken steps to block further communication.
Multiple calls have been received from this number, which displays as "1" and is described as "UNAVAILABLE." The callers fail to leave a message, making it frustrating and suspicious. Legitimate callers typically leave a message if they have a genuine purpose for calling. It's advisable for them to leave a message if they wish to communicate with us, as we do not answer calls from unknown or fake numbers.
Reports from the FBI, FTC, and state AGs indicate that fake payday loan sites have been set up, and information is being obtained from various sources, including large ID breaches, which is how they got my info, so it's essential to know your rights.
Research indicates this scam is international, with the FBI receiving complaints since before 2006, and it involves legitimate payday loan companies' call centers in India being compromised.
It's astonishing to see the extent to which these scammers will go to extort money from innocent people, as evidenced by my own experience and the numerous posts here.
I was contacted by four different people from this number, and unfortunately, I fell victim to their scam, even making a payment, but after verifying with my loan company and being advised by Homeland Security, I realized my mistake and am now seeking a way to stop them from contacting my job and family members.
They using another number 818-254-8592, the man has the same middle eastern accent and threatens that some harm is going to come my way if i dont pay up
Law enforcment's willingness to investigate these scam's is admirable, however the real issu is getting goverments to take action
These individuals are from a vastly different background, with limited resources and a distinct way of life. Unless there's a market for their products, such as cow dung, there's little opportunity for economic advancement.
The number's are fake
I have been recieving numerous calls from this number, the person on the other end is hard to understand due to background noise and poor english, he claims to be Officer Jose Garcia, but I beleive it's a scam.
It's unclear if the issue lies with the number itself or the phone, as similar problems have been experienced with numerous contacts
It appears that they have changed their tactics, now using different numbers to avoid being contacted
I've also been dealing with these calls; when they reach me at work, I remain silent, but at home, I use a whistle to respond, hoping they'll get the message or tire of the headache, and I wish the authorities would take more aggressive action to stop these calls.
In response to a call from a representative, a psychological game was initiated, which led to the caller becoming distraught and eventually ending the conversation. This interaction has been repeated, with the goal of using psychological tactics to unsettle the caller.
Roger lewis from national process servers inc call my job, saying i'm being sued and have to go to court, but it was a scam about a payday loan from cash net usa, i was scared tho.
I had a similar experience with a company called Marcello & Camarillo, which claimed to be a mediation service; they used intimidation tactics, mentioning the DA's office, court filings, and fraud, and demanded payment by debit or credit card, but when I asked for the name of the payday loan company they were supposedly representing, they were unable to provide it; the number that appeared on my caller ID was either 1-800-642-1084 or Restricted, and the person I spoke with claimed to be Owen Shore
Joshua Black contacted me a couple of weeks ago and again today, claiming I had an outstanding loan, but after verifying the information with my bank and the loan company, I confirmed that the loan had been paid off and informed him that I would not be sending any money.
I totally agree with DAVE!!!
