Continues to call saying her name is Chanel and she received paperwork on her desk for me, but no company name is given

received call when returned the call said that i owed walmart over 400 dollars and that they could help me solve this problem. i told them i never had a walmart card. they had some personal information and that scares me. told them i would check it out and get back to them they hung up.

I got the same message, no company name was given.  Sounds like a scam.  The message was for my sister so not sure how they got my phone number, we have different last names.

One important thing to remember if these losers have any of your personal information such as your social security number, date of birth or drivers license make sure you register with identity protection notify the credit agencies as well as your banks!!

Extortion Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

Washington, D.C.
December 07, 2010  FBI National Press Office
(202) 324-3691

— filed under: Press Release

The Internet Crime Complaint Center has received many complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. Callers claim the victim is delinquent in a payday loan and must repay the loan to avoid legal consequences. The callers purport to be representatives of the FBI, Federal Legislative Department, various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies. They claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, and other Internet check-cashing services.

According to complaints received from the public, the callers have accurate data about victims, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, employer information, bank account numbers, and the names and telephone numbers of relatives and friends. How the fraudsters obtained the personal information varies, but in some cases victims have reported they completed online applications for other loans or credit cards before the calls started.

The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim’s home, cell phone, and place of employment. They refuse to provide any details about the alleged payday loans and become abusive when questioned. The callers have threatened victims with legal actions, arrests, and, in some cases, physical violence if they do not pay. In many cases, the callers harass victims’ relatives, friends, and employers.

stop calling, i don't even live at the the number that some people keeps calling and leaving messages..

I just got a call on my husbands phone for me saying that they have paperwork for me to signed. I don't know who these people are. They gave a reference number. I tried to do a reverse look up and nothing comes up. The people told me if nothing comes up, they have a private security lock on the number so people won't know who they are.

Left voice mail they had paperwork for my husband that he needed to be fully aware of. Gave him a file number with a phone number to return their call, which he won't. No company name left.

A woman by the name of Chanel left a voicemail saying I need to call them back about an important matter. No company name given and they have called me once a day for the past 3 days! SCAM!!!!

phone call from a woman named ashley. Stating she received paper work on her desk, gave me a reference number. Has called me everyday for 3 days. And never leaves the companies name, just hers and her direct number...

I've received the same message 3 days in a row from a woman named Ashley. The voicemail recording doesn't give a company name either. Seems sketchy!

Message about having "important paperwork" for me.  They are blowing up the cell phone but we do not answer.  Only left one message.

Our message says that it is for "A Person" with our last name, but no one in our family has that first name. We always look up these numbers on these sites before calling anyone back. Pretty much the same message "important paperwork".

Clearly a skip tracer for a debt collector contacting everyone with the same last name trying to find "A Person".  The best advice is to block their number(s) if they continue to call.  They frequently will not believe the person they are seeking is not at your number.

Just got a call from this number looking for my wife's ex-husband. Don't know how they got my cell phone number.

Received a phone call telling me that needs to speak to my husband and requested the last four of his social... I gave now I am worried.

Just received a call for my ex-husband - we've been divorced for 20 years.  Said they were the "The Law Offices of Vance and Huffman" with important paperwork for him.  I'm sure it's some kind of debt collection.  I would tell them to get in line, but he's been dead for 4 years.

Leaves daily ambiguous voicemails on my cell referencing paperwork that they need to discuss without identifying who they are or what the paperwork pertains to.
