Received a message stating he was from the "United Legal Investigation Bureau" (I looked this up and no such bureau exists as far as I can tell).  He told me that it was a very time sensitive matter and that my SS# had been blocked due to security reasons.  He said he didn't know what was going to happen to me if I didn't call him back.  He spoke very broken English too.  It is very scary though, because this man repeated my SS#, my full name and my address.  How do people like this get this information?!?!?  I made the decision NOT to call this person back!

You're right..that's a phony name. Many sleazy collectors use fake names that are meant to sound like the name of a law enforcement agency or a law firm.  No matter how official their fake names sound, no collection agency has the authority to have anyone arrested for anything.

Here are some websites that might be helpful if you have to deal with these crooks (and make no mistake, they ARE crooks.):

Since you decided to play the christian card - like that matters to anything - why don't you "turn the other cheek" or "forgive and forget"?

Bad, bad people...

I suggest taping the conversation (let them know you are) and request they send you documentation validating the debt they are attempting to collect.  Under no circumstances should you send these people any money - they have proven repeatedly it is a scam.  Keep your cool...

Familiarize yourself with the federal law pertaining to debt collection (http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fdcpa/fdcpact.htm).  If after speaking with the representative you feel as though they violated the statutes by threatening arrest and/or threatening or actually contacting your employer, contact the Florida Attorney General's office and the Federal Trade Commission (www.ftc.gov).    

The Florida Attorney General's office is currently suing the group associated with this phone number (http://myfloridalegal.com/__852562220065EE67. ... bass,associates).  You can file an online complaint at http://myfloridalegal.com/contact.nsf/contact.

Good luck!

United Legal Investigations Bureau is a scam - they will threaten you, hoping to cause you to react to their requests for immediate payment.  

Do the research.  Follow my above recommendations or they will continue to harass you.  Make sure these clowns play by the rules - and let them know you're saavy about what they can and cannot do.  You'll be amazed by their response...

Good luck!

Received a call today in voice mail from "Will Buxton" of United Legal Investigation Bureau  at 1-210-858-6602 about a law suit filed against my employer.  Was "time sensitive" and an "emergency".  Foreign (Indian or Pakistani) accent.  I was suspicious and called the number and got Will Buxton's voice mail.  Did not leave a call back.  This is not the way legal actions are pursued.  Beware!!!

Foreign man named Will Buxton called from 210 858 6602 and left me a voicemail said he was with the United Legal Investigation Bureau and repeated my full name, address, and social security number. I live in Illinois we have the HIPPA act which means they CAN NOT repeat that kind of information on a voicemail let alone my social security number. I want to know what can I do to stop this. I'm a little freaked out because they have all that personal information and who knows who else they are sharing this with.

William Buxton threatened me with deportation (immigration), arrest, job firing, and jail because I am an "illegal immigrant" who does not pay debt back.  He read a script in Spanish that told me I would be investigated for immigration fraud and using a fraudulent social security number.  (I am a legal U.S. Citizen.)

I too got the same type of call but it was from a different "gentleman" if you want to call him that. He started to tell me I was being investigated for bank fraud because after they took over 500.00 in interest in 2 months time, I closed my bank account and pay cash now. This was for a 200.00 pay day loan with SSM. He provided me a so called legal case number and tried to get me to talk more. After I thought it was a hoax, I told him I was going to complete a conference call with the local police departments (as he said I was going to be arrested). I called the police department and she asked my name - when I told her she paused (pulling up my information I bet) and then she advised me to call the Social Security Administration to protect my number from fraudlent activity. I then contacted the State Attorney Generals Office in the state I live in and found they also had no information on me. All this through my lunch. I got very upset and called the phone number back - getting a general voice machine and left a message of my own ----- telling him what I checked.... he later called back and provided me the phone number of Roy Campbell of 480-365-0155. To call him and get things worked out (which I never did). Oh by the way - prior to closing my checking account I did in fact contact SSM about my loan with them. I requested an address because I was going through a credit management service so I could start to pay them back.... Did I forget to tell you they didn't have an address to provide to me because the money is taken care of out of Nigeria. Also try to pull up the area codes here - no such area code in the US...... I learned my lesson on this one. My credit managment service rep had informed me - they can't collect until they send it to a collection bureau in your own state....

Cheryl, don't worry about these people; just ignore their calls. They are criminals who are being pursued by Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum for making exactly the same kind of calls and illegal threats to lots of other people in an effort to steal money. They are no different than the notorious Nigerian spammers.

As earlier messages in this thread indicate, the call you received was made by a group of criminals in Florida who masquerade as a legitimate debt collection company. Here's a recent news article about these crooks and the Florida AG's efforts to stop them: http://www.jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/120107/met_221875639.shtml

They operate under all kinds of phony names such as Bass Associates, Ellis Crosby & Associates, Jackson Phillips & Associates. And lately, they've been calling from a number in Georgia under the name States Predisposition Services, Inc. In fact, there are already messages threads here on 800Notes about calls States Predispositions -- all of which are similar to the call you received: illegal threats, impersonating a law enforcement officer, impersonating an attorney, etc.  Here are the links: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-800-918-3844 and http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-800-918-3849 and
http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-305-433-8368  

And consumer law attorney Bud Hibbs has an extensive report on this gang of crooks:  http://www.budhibbs.com/debtcollectorpages/ellis_crosby_and_associates.htm

You may want to consider taking a few minutes to report the call to these law enforcement agencies:

1) Florida Attorney General (even if you're not in Florida): http://myfloridalegal.com/contact.nsf/contact

2) Federal Trade Commission: https://rn.ftc.gov/pls/dod/wsolcq$.startup?Z_ORG_CODE=PU01

3) Your state's attorney general. You can find your AG's website here: http://www.naag.org/

4) The FBI's Crime Tip website: https://tips.fbi.gov

I have been receiving harrassing phone calls at my job from a man named Will Buxton and a man named Roy Campbell. They threatened to have me arrested and said they were with the United states investigation bureau and as I probed them with more questions he told me to go to hell and hung up.Hedemanded that I send them $900 by the end of the day or all of these things were going to occur. They even contacted my General Manager at work and that was the last straw. I got my director of security involved and on the case. DO NOT give them any info because its a scam!!!

I received as message on my work phone and my cell phone today by the same William Buxton at 210-858-6602. He told me I was going to be taken to jail and he was the only one who could stop that from happening if I did what he asked. He knew my name, address, social security number, where I banked, and my bank account number. When I asked him to talk nicely to me he cussed me out, told me I need to be raped, that my husband should beat me, and then hung up! I am so afraid because he has all my information.

Don't be afraid, and tell this scumbucket to stop.  If they are making illegal threats, using profane or obscene language, making calls with the intent of harassing or abusing you or violating any other provision of the Federal Debt Collection Practices Act, file a complaint with both your state's attorney general and the Federal Trade Commission.
