lexton - 17 Apr 2008received a call from this number. second time they called with same middle eastern man but gave a different name this time. Became angry when i requested written proof of the investigation and when i asked for the physical address to the company. He started yelling about who told me this was a company and just take care of myself and my kid.. my husband came home and called the number back and a women answered the phone and she told him they had called the wrong number and they were sorry for the inconvience. The only problem with that is he knew my name and address and last 4 digits of my social security number. So be careful and don't give them anymore information..

Heather - 29 Apr 2008Received a voicemail from "Shawn Anderson" from "United Processing Legal Department" investigating fraud & illegal activities associated with my mailing address and social security number. Said he wasn't going to leave that information on my voicemail because it was not safe. Sounded extremely similar to "Roy Cambell" who had called previously regarding the fraud and illegal activity and proceeded to say my social security number in full and my mailing address on my WORK voicemail. I filed a complaint with the FTC. "Roy Cambell" can be found here: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-480-365-0155

He continued to say that my mailing address and SS# had been verified and his company had been attemtping to get in contact with me for several days. Then he said they had received a complaint against my name and SS# this morning (May 12, 2008)If I didn't return his phone call, they would have no choice but to seek further action at my work place. I could not make out the last part of the sentence because it was very hard to understand him. Middle eastern sounding and very rude, threatening.

Jennifer - 16 Jun 2008I received a call today (June 16, 2008, 1:45 pm) at my job from a Shawn Anderson with United Processing, Legal Department. He gave me his name, company name, telephone # and a file #. He said that I owed a "great sum" of money and informed me that the call was being recorded. He said this was a debt that I owed and if I did not pay it that I would go to jail. He also told me that he knew my ss #, address and banking information. I repeatedly asked him the original creditors name and the dollar amount owed. I was told that he is the one that would be asking the questions, not me. I told him I would answer no questions until he answered mine. I was accused of playing games with him and he wanted to speak to my H.R. department. He had a very thick Indian accent so I had a hard time understanding everything he was saying. I informed him that because he would not answer my 2 questions I was ending the call. I then googled United Processing and everything listed was scam related.

Badcall - 2 Jul 20087-1-2008- I recieved a message from a Shawn Anderson at 1-305-853-8704. The message was actually for my husband, Mr. Anderson had the last 4 numbers of his socisl security and he said he also had our address. He said that if we didn't call him back that my husband could be incarrserated for fraudglent activity. I called the police in Tavernier FL. That is where the phone number is listed. (I did a reverse search) This message scared me and if he calls back I will file another report. I believe it is not legal to leave a message with the persons social on it.

nicole p - 16 Jul 2008yep... I got the same phone call. And because I had previously received called of this nature, as soon as I heard the nature of the call, I immediately logged onto this website to see if anyone else had records of calls from this "Shawn Anderson" fellow. Although he had information on a legitimate outstanding payday loan debt, I still was leary about continuing my conversation with him. The second he asked me to hold the line for a call transfer, I informed him that I could not discuss this issue with him at the present time as he had contacted my work number. I instructed him to call me at home, and of course, he did not have that number and proceeded to ask me for it. And of course, I informed him that he should have had it on file instead of asking, since the payday loan company has my home number on file. I don't think I expect to hear from him once I get home...

Ashley - 11 Aug 2008Yeah, a Shawn Anderson from this number called my husband at work saying he was from FTR Processing, a payday loan debt collections company, and gave our old address, his social security number and everything and was saying that he had to be at court at 11am tomorrow at the Indiana County courthouse. Okay, yes, we live in Indiana, but there is no Indiana COUNTY courthouse LOL He said if he didn't want to go to the "hearing" they could meet outside the courthouse and "settle the debt there". He would not give my husband an amount or any more info on the account, just that it was a fraudulent act that he (my husband) had committed and that if he did not settle or come to court, he would be arrested at work tomorrow.
FTR Processing IS a REAL collection company, but if you call the numbers listed on their webpages, they are from Kansas, the address and all numbers are from there, not Florida, and have no one calls back.
We have had this happen before, from another number in Florida with another Middle Eastern woman and man doing the "threatening" with his SS# and info. It's kind of creepy that they have all this, and are calling at work, plus it's getting my husband into trouble because he's not supposed to have personal calls at work. He told his supervisor the next time they called (they've called FIFTEEN TIMES today alone) to call the police and report it...that it was fraud and he did not know WHAT was going on.

EJE - 19 Aug 2008Received a call form this numebr today from "Shawn Anderson". this is the same man who contacted me months ago, so I already knew what I was in for.
He told me he was bringing this matter of fraud to the courhouse in my city and county at 11 AM tomorrow morning if I did not settle this matter by 4:00 PM today. Went on and on about how they tried to contact me by mail and phone numerous times, but I "chose to ignore the calls".
Refuses to give proof of debt owed.
I told him to send the matter to court as I was not giving him any money. He has my social security number, my old bank account number, and my address, and verified that he did have them. Claimed I was cviolating Federal Banking Regulations, etc etc. After I told him to take the matter to court, he said, "Fine, I will send the police to your office to have you arrested. You will spend at least one night in PRISON as punishment."
I have spoken to my attorney who confirms this is fraudulent activity on their part and not to pay them a dime.
It has been suggested to report this to the FTC, your state's Attorney General, Florida's attorney General, and any other state's AG that you can find affiliated with these people.
I can only imagine how much money they have made from people who do not know this is a scam.

ec - 19 Aug 2008It's a scam. There's no such thing as United Legal Processing. The main thing to remember is that anytime someone calls you demanding money to prevent your arrest, it is ALWAYS a scam. No debt collector (let alone criminals posing as debt collectors) have the authority to have anyone arrested for anything. (And it's illegal to them to threaten such a thing.) And since these foreign dirtbags routinely impersonate law enforcement, it's also important to remember that American law enforcement officers aren't in the business of debt collection. (Debt is a civil, not a criminal, matter.) The bottom line is, these are criminals trying to steal your money; ignore their phony threats.
Here's some background on this scam that should be helpful in reporting it to federal and state law enforcement. The calls are from a sweatshop phone bank in India working on behalf of a group of American criminals. The American crooks illegally provide consumer contact information and Social Security numbers to the overseas crooks for the very purpose of extorting money from consumers with a myriad of false and illegal threats. They alternately pose as debt collectors, federal and state law enforcement officers, lawyers and bankers. They use any number of phony names such as US National Bank, Federal Investigation Bureau, US Legal Investigation Bureau, Hopkins Law Office, United Legal Processing, Morgan Associates, White Collar Crime Unit and many more. These crooks often use caller-id spoofing software and/or VoIP to disguise their real location and to make it appear that they are calling from American area codes.
There are some reports on 800Notes that have suggested that the crooks behind this offshore scam are also the crooks behind the notorious Bass/Ellis Crosby & Assoc./States Predisposition scams in Florida and Georgia. The interesting thing is that the number of complaints on here about the US National Bank/US Legal Investigation/Federal Investigation scam skyrocketed *after* April 7, 2008 when Florida obtained a $1.3 million judgment against Ted Ellis Crosby, shutdown his operations and barred him from ever conducting debt collections in Florida (Read http://myfloridalegal.com/newsrel.nsf/newsrel ... 5257424005858A6 ) There's certainly a good chance that the crooks placing these calls from India are doing so on behalf of the American crooks behind the Crosby/Bass/States Predisposition scams.

Though scam calls from these crooks have been going on long before May 8, the frequency of complaints about these calls increased considerably after Crosby was shut down in early April.
This is conjecture, but appearances suggest that Crosby and company were originally running a two-pronged payday loan scam operation -- with some calls being made from Jacksonville, Florida and other calls being made from a phone bank in India (and possibly other countries); then, after the Florida Attorney General shut down the Crosby scams in Florida, the Crosby transferred most of their scam efforts through the India phone bank.
If you are targeted by these criminals, be sure to report them to all the following federal and state law enforcement agencies (most of which you can do online or over the phone):
1) The U.S. Secret Service is responsible for protecting the country's financial infrastructure and payment systems from international and domestic threats. Call or write your local Secret Service field office to alert them to the details of this attempted extortion. The addresses and phone numbers for the local Secret Service field offices are listed at http://www.secretservice.gov/field_offices.shtml or in your phone book.
2) Alert the FBI at https://tips.fbi.gov Be sure to tell the FBI that you are being targeted by extortionists over the phone who are posing as federal law enforcement. Be sure to give as many details as you can.
3) File a complaint with your local police. Most police departments will take a report over the phone. Be sure to tell them that you're being targeted by an extortionist and give them all the details.
4) File a complaint your state's attorney general, the contact information for whom is at www.naag.org
5) File a complaint online with The Federal Trade Commission at https://rn.ftc.gov/pls/dod/wsolcq$.startup?Z_ORG_CODE=PU01
If these crooks call back, promise them nothing, pay them nothing and tell them nothing other than that you know they're a scam and that you've reported them to law enforcement. (And be sure to report them to all the agencies above each time they call you.)
By the way, here's just a small sample of numbers used by this particular group of scammers. Read the reports and you'll see the same pattern time and again -- phony organization names, thick foreign accents, and oddly worded threats that are so melodramatic and ridiculous that it's laughable:
