It’s odd how often these calls claim you owe a phantom loan and threaten arrest within minutes. The callers repeatedly use a legal‑sounding name, most often “Hopkins Law Firm,” and flash the last four digits of your Social Security number to sound credible. Never share personal or financial details with an unsolicited caller, and immediately hang up if the tone becomes aggressive. Block the number on your phone, and add it to any call‑filtering app. Report the abuse to the FTC, your state attorney general, and consider a free credit freeze to protect against identity theft. Stay calm, verify any legitimate debt through official channels, and keep a log of each call.
I received an email stating I owed money and threatening arrest if I didn't make payments, supposedly from ilpdusa.com.
Today, I received four back-to-back calls from this number, with the caller having a thick Indian accent, claiming knowledge of my Social Security number's last four digits, and threatening legal action if I didn't respond or have my attorney contact him, though he failed to identify himself or his organization.
My workplace has been bombarded with at least 40 calls from this number today, with a man claiming to be Victor, possessing a heavy Indian accent, asserting he works for a law firm, and threatening me with arrest, despite being told by myself and my colleagues to desist, and I have reported this incident to the FTC, police, and FBI due to the severity of the harassment
I was contacted by someone claiming to be from USA Cash Loan, stating I had taken out an online payday loan, but when I requested documentation, the provided invoice had inconsistencies, and they threatened to garnish my wages, highlighting concerns about the control of personal information
Such calls are unlawful and the individuals making them, purportedly from South Asia, demonstrate a lack of intelligence.
Repeated calls were received on both my cell phone and at my workplace, with the caller claiming a settlement of $402.00 was owed, although I am aware that such requests are not lawful.
The caller, who introduced himself as Gary Johnson with an Indian accent, offered to settle for a specific amount if I did not wish to involve my attorney.
The deceptive tactics employed by the individual from this number, who claims to be someone they are not, are likely a result of a deep-seated tendency to deceive, possibly ingrained or learned behavior.
It's notable that these scammers always post similair messages, pretending to be victims
I was contacted by a man named Victor, who had a thick Indian accent, warning me that I would face charges if I didn't return his call within an hour, which has caused me significant stress.

This number has been calling both my cell and work numbers, leaving threatening messages and refusing to stop, which I find extremely annoying and will be reporting to the FTC
These scammers are known to deposit a small amount of money into your account without your knowledge and then proceed to withdraw funds. After discovering their tactic, I took action to stop them and am now seeking to recover my losses through legal means. It's a warning to these scammers that their actions will not go unnoticed.
Identity theft is a concern as hackers have compromised SC taxpayers' information, selling it on the black market, so it's essential to check your credit report.
They cald me, and were very agressive on my voicemail, said it was urgent, and that if I didnt call back within an hour, they would take legal action against me and my social, didnt say what debt it was, but they new the last 4 digits of my social security number.
Apparently this is a criminal extortion scam, they use VOIP and legitimate firm names to make it seem like the calls are from the US, but its all a scam, you should protect yourself by notifying the FTC
This just happend to me and I called FTC and reported the number, they are annoying idiots and so fake, when you call them back the speak English just fine and then all of a sudden its the fake Far East accent, which is litterally rediculous.
Apparently they've done it to me aswell.
Seem like this phone number is being used for scamming peoples, they claim to be a attorney and try to scare you into paying a loan you didnt take.
