I recieved a Gmail from them stating that if I didnt pay, I would be arrested, with varying amounts of $250, $300, and $500, which didnt seem legit, and when I asked the Sr. Attorney for his bar number, he dissapeared.
Debt‑Collection Threat Calls? How to Protect Yourself!
Summary — +17864412582
Expert Opinion
Heads up, these calls are classic debt‑collection scams that use legal threats to scare victims into paying. Callers often claim to be attorneys, bailiffs, or sheriffs, demand cash via PayPal or Gmail, and cite vague “court dates.” Never share personal info or financial details, and don’t wire money to unknown accounts. Verify any alleged debt by contacting the original creditor directly, and ask for written proof before any payment. Block the number, report it to the FTC and your phone carrier, and consider filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Staying skeptical and keeping records can stop the cycle.

Scam
Emails have been sent to me threatening to visit my workplace and home with an attorney to serve paperwork, but the emails contain spelling and grammar errors, raising suspicions of a scam; when I ask for more information, I'm met with silence, and the email's origin is unclear.
Emails have been received alleging an outstanding loan debt, threatening legal action and arrest if not paid by the specified deadline, which seems to be a scam, especially given the lack of personal information provided.
I suspect this is a scam, as they claim I owe $1900 and threatened to show up at my doorstep on Friday at 11:00 AM.
