- This Just In...Consumer Alert: Attorney General warns Kansans of debt collection scam
January 29, 2010 -- Attorney General Steve Six is cautioning Kansas consumers about telephone calls from apparent fake debt collectors who are impersonating law enforcement officers in an effort to extort money from consumers. Consumers are warned to not submit payments to these fraudulent debt collectors.
When calling, the scammers most often state they are attempting to collect a debt related to an internet payday loan obtained by the consumer, but which the consumer never repaid. Consumers state they have never obtained such a loan or paid off the loan years ago. The scam artists have most recently identified themselves as ACS, National Affidavit Processing Department and United Financial Crime Division, but may use additional phony names. It appears the phone numbers used by the scammers are “spoofed” numbers, so that the number appearing on a consumer’s caller ID is not the actual number of where the call originated. It appears the calls in question may be originating from outside the United States.
When questioned, the individual calling refuses to disclose the full name or address of the collection agency they claim to represent. These scammers have been able to provide consumers with identifying information, such as the consumer’s social security number, home address, e-mail address, names of family members and the consumer’s computer IP address. Since the callers are able to provide valid personal information, consumers may become confused and believe they are being contacted in regard to a legitimate debt.
If the initial debt collection scam is unsuccessful, consumers have been re-contacted months later with the scammers posing as law enforcement officers or officers of the court. Typically, the consumer is threatened with arrest for fraud or some other fictitious crime unless the consumer agrees to immediately wire money via Western Union. The fictitious officers strive to frighten and confuse consumers into compliance by using legal sounding terms such as “We’re filing an affidavit against you” or by stating a lawsuit has been or is in the process of being filed against the consumer.
A hallmark of each scam has been calling consumers repeatedly at their place of employment. This scam hit home when an employee of the Kansas Attorney General’s Office was repeatedly called both on her cell phone and at work. Despite the employee’s repeated verbal disputes, the caller refused to provide any identifying information to allow her to send a written dispute. The scammer also continued to call her numerous times a day regarding a payday loan she denied obtaining. Two months later, she was again contacted by telephone by an individual identifying himself as an “officer”.
“I denied owing the debt and refused to pay without being provided validation of the debt. I was then told, ‘If that’s the case, I will have local law enforcement come to your place of business and drag you out kicking and screaming’,” stated the employee.
“It is important for consumers to know their rights under the law,” Attorney General Six said. “If a consumer is receiving calls from a debt collection company and believe it is a scam, I encourage them to contact our office immediately.”
Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), collectors are required to send consumers a written notice within five days of the initial contact. The notification should contain information such as the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed and a statement informing the consumer they have thirty days to contact the debtor in writing to dispute the debt or request validation of the debt. In addition, legitimate debt collectors are prohibited by the FDCPA from making false or misleading representations, such as the consumer has committed a crime, implying nonpayment will result in the consumer’s arrest, or using the threat of violence.

- JohnSeems these guys are on a roll. they contacted me on my work cell phone. Informing me that a warrant was being issued for my arrest. threatening me with $8000.00 in court costs. I asked what for and he told me it was for bank fraud relating to my not paying back a payday loan I took out. They wanted a notarized statement with my personal inf and my credit card info along with a copy of my drivers license. I told him I had left my credit card at home and would send him the info in an hour or so. I checked my bank statements and discovered they were wrong. The scammers called back and I told them of my findings. Did they have a loan number or company name of the loan company. He could not provide any info. I informed him that according to NC law he needs to send me written documentation. He told me that there was no documentation to send me. I told him I was going to report him to the AG of my state. He told me the officers would have documentation when they came to arrest me.
At complaint has been filed with the North Carolina AG and I wait for the "officer" to arrive.- Caller: Attorney & Legal Services

- Jay replies to kekeI just got a call from the same number (408) 608-0924 at work about 30 min ago stating that I'm being sued for 8000.84 and when I started asking questions about the orginal debtor he got rude and said they don't want to talk to me, etc. I do admit that I have gotten payday loans in the past and I have paid them all. I do admit they had me shook for a minute.
- pattigirl replies to MelI live in Missouri and I just talk to these guys today for the second time. They yelled at me on the phone and told me they were sending two investigators to my job to arrest me for questioning. I kept telling them I didn't have an unpaid loan and was refused detailed information. What worries me is they have my bank account information and who knows if they will go so far as to steal from my account. I hope they get caught real soon, this really upset me and it's embarassing for them to call my job. I am relieved to know that I'm not crazy.
- JayI just got another phone call at work from 408-608-0924, saying that they will send their investing officers to my home tomorrow to arrest me and to make sure I have 8000.00 to get out. I don't know who the HELL these people are, but I hope they get caught. The funny thing is that everytime I call this number back it goes straight to a voicemail, no company name etc.

- New YorkerThis same person called me today at work listing a company I have never dealt with before and
said he had a case number against me. He didn't speak in a professional lawyer manner in any
way but did speak to me in a rather heavy India accent. At first he wouldn't give me the case
number against me and when he finally did he became rude when I tried to ask a question. He
ask for the last digits of my social sec. and I said that I certainly would not give that info. This
gentleman by the name of DAVID LEO then said, "I'm going to send my investigation team over
there, I don't have time right now - goodbye". Very Rude & Unprofessional! A FAKE! ! !- Caller: Law Firm
- NYC manThis same scammer called me too!! By the name of David Leo. He must be a real slick jerk
as he gave me the same business as well. I wouldn't give him any information, plus I told
him I was calling the attorney general in my NY state. He became rude and hung up.

- Rentonn| 1 replyI got called 2 days in a row by these people. What a crock of s**t. they told me that they were gonna send officers to arrest me and take me to jail. Im still waiting for the police to show up. Plus i just got my criminal records check back today and nothing was on it. I even called the state AG office for where they were calling from and the AG office had no idea what these people were talking about. They said it was probably a scam and i shouldnt talk to them again. Hope they get caught and go to jail. Maybe get a big gay cell-mate named bubba that like foreign accents
