Expert Opinion
This caller, often identified as Jason Greene, claims to be from a legal firm like Western Asset Group or Action Recovery and Research, and typically calls to inform you about a supposed civil judgment or debt from years ago. They have an alarming amount of personal information, including your date of birth and social security number, but are evasive about the details of the supposed case. The calls are often aggressive, with threats of wage garnishment or legal action. However, many users have noted that the claims are likely false, as the statute of limitations for such debts has often expired, and you would have been notified of any legal action. If you receive such a call, do not provide any personal information and hang up immediately. Verify any claims by contacting the supposed creditor directly or checking your credit report. Stay vigilant and report these calls to the FTC.
