Sand - 7 Apr 2008Offices of Veronica Masters. You have been noted as a key element in an investigation. Imperative you or attorney call or we will have to do something "rashful". If you do not call by the close of business hours we will be forced to have you "identified soon by the State you live in". The person they are trying to contact recently went through bankruptcy and this appears to be a case where this particular creditor wants to circumvent the laws and get paid no matter what.

ec - 23 Jun 2008It's a scam. This is a not a law firm -- far from it.
Spellman & Roman/Veronica Masters (or whatever other aliases they're using) is the latest incarnation of the infamous Bass Prelitigation/Ellis Crosby/States Predisposition/US National Bank/United Legal Processing scam in Jacksonville, FL. (More background info on this particular scam can be found here: http://budhibbs.com/debtcollectorpages/ellis_crosby_and_associates.htm )
Compare the domain registration information for the Spellman & Roman website with the domain registration of the now defunct States Predisposition website:
http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/results ... ellmanroman.com
http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/results ... disposition.com
There are two very telling similarities:
1) Both websites are hosted by Superior IT Solutions (www.superior-it.com ) which is a Jacksonville-based IP hosting company.
2) Both "companies" registered their website name through DomainBank in Vancouver, Washington, which is a company that allows anyone (including crooks, apparently) to anonymously register a website name.
Also, the Spellman & Roman domain was registered on March 31, 2008 -- just one week before the Florida Attorney General shut down Ted Ellis Crosby and the Ellis Crosby & Associates scam. (See: http://myfloridalegal.com/newsrel.nsf/newsrel ... 5257424005858A6 ) Add to all that the fact that the method of the Spellman & Roman scam -- false pay day loan collections, false and illegal threats of arrest and lawsuits, and illegal impersonation of attorneys and law enforcement -- is identical to the scams run by Bass Prelitigation/States Predisposition/Jackson Phillips/Impact Business Marketing/United Legal Processing/US National Bank/Morgan Associates, etc.
I seriously doubt that all this is just a coincidence.
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 or attorney (let alone criminals posing as debt collectors and attorneys) have the authority to have anyone arrested for anything. (And it's illegal to them to threaten such a thing; it's also illegal for them to make any false threat, such as suing you when they no intention or authority to sue you.) And since these dirtbags routinely impersonate law enforcement (which is also illegal), 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 with extortive threats.
If you have been targeted by these crooks, be sure to report them to all the following agencies:
1) File a complaint with the Florida Attorney General at http://myfloridalegal.com/contact.nsf/contact?Open&Section=Attorney_General (By the way, Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum is very aggressive in pursuing these debt collection scammers.)
2) 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.
3) Alert the FBI at https://tips.fbi.gov Be sure to tell the FBI that you are being targeted by extortionists over the phone with a myriad of illegal threats. Be sure to give as many details as you can.
4) 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.
5) File a complaint your state's attorney general, the contact information for whom is at www.naag.org
6) File a complaint online with The Federal Trade Commission at https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/FTC_Wizard.aspx?Lang=en
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. (Report them to all the agencies above each time they call you. Be sure to save any voice mail messages and, if legal in your state to do so, record all their calls.)

My guess is, a consumer demanding a mailing address screws up their scam, so they provide a fake address. Most often, they will attempt to bully their victims into a payment method that doesn't involve the U.S. Mail, such as a credit card or wire payments via Western Union, MoneyGram, etc.
Happy to hear you saw through this scam!

ec - 25 Jun 2008By the way, since these Jacksonville, Florida scammers are (falsely) representing this latest incarnation of their debt collection scam as being based in Moncks Corner, SC, you should also file a complaint with the South Carolina Department of Consumer Affairs at http://www.scconsumer.gov/complaint_services.htm
As I mentioned in my message above, the grifters behind the Spellman & Roman fraud are based in Jacksonville, Florida and hide behind many other company names. The Florida Attorney General has already shut down one of their scams (Ellis Crosby & Associates) and is in the process of doing the same with another of their scams (Bass Prelitigation). In your complaint to the SCDCA, be sure to suggest that their investigators contact the Florida Attorney General Economic Crimes Division for details on these three Jacksonville, FL companies: Ellis Crosby & Associates, Bass Preligitation, Inc. and States Predisposition. (Note that States Predisposition Services, Inc. is incorporated in Folkston, Georgia but is really operating out of the Bass Prelitigation "office" in Jacksonville.)
It may also help South Carolina authorities to also reference in your complaint these links, which help chronicle the progress of these scammers from Jacksonville, FL to Folkston, GA to St. Mary's, GA and now to Moncks Corner, SC:

jhall - 10 Apr 2008Received same threating message. I asked them to fax over to me something in writing before I provide them with my credit card information and they did not. I called back and without me even saying anything Sidni Roman knew that I had not received the fax. She asked me if the State Attorneys office had sent the fax and I said no. She placed me on hold and conferenced me in with another person who stated that she was from the State Attorney office and could not submit me anything because I knew I owed this money. I asked the State employee for her name and phone number, I was disconnected. I explained to Ms. Roman that I am State employee also and I wanted to know the phone number of the person who she was speaking with and she said she could not give me that information either. I don't understand why they would just expect me to give them this information over the phone without submitting something in writing. I have been searching online to find out if this a law firm and I can't find anything. I also tried a reverse phone number look up and could not find anything.

Look I got a phone like your at work. At first my co-worker picked up th ephone. They try to get my license plate number from her. Then she just transfered the call to my line. I picked up. She was very forceful, which is ok. Then she got out rude. I owed an online check cash $300.00 that I can not find any more. I told her that I know that I stilled owed $300.00 to one, and ok. I informed her that I wanted to take care of the situation. She then throw out $778.20. I told her I was not able to pay the full amount up front, and if I can call her back after work. She then got reaaly rude and hung up. I called back the number, and she hung up again. By this time I was hopping mad. My co-worker told me I better take care of the situation, so I got back on the phone. I talked to an operator, and inform the woman that I wanted to speak to someone other then the woman that I original spoke with. Then she followed up and of course I was transfer back to the same woman. I try to control my tamper. I then followed to ask what are the extra charges. The woman inform me that my bank, which is a federal runned bank, provided them with a statement that cost $250.00. Then that just got me heated. I told I had to problem paying back what I owed, but I would need 24 hours to come up with the $300.00. I followed this phone call to my husband. He thought that it was odd that the bank would provide a statement like that would out informing me. So I decide to call the bank. They inform that they do not fill out any form that cost $250.00. So then I asked them to provide to me in writing. So then I decide to call back the number, and got the answering machine. The answer machine was not total clear on the name of the company. So then I googled the telephone and find out what everybody else was saying. I felt a little better. So I decided to do a little more research. I live in CA, and I remembered the woman indicting that they were on the East coast. So I got up early in the morning, and called the telephone number. I call the Better Busniess Benuea. They told not to pay a company without a physical address. She then told me that they are not registered in CA. I got a woman that was not exacting me to call. I asked her the spell the name of the company. SPELLMAN & ROMAN. I asked what the address of the company was. 405 Corner Stone, Canck, SC. (I am doing this out of memory. I have it written down at home). I followed by asking how long have they been in business. The woman than start acting differently. She asked why are you asking these questions, I am just a sectary. I procdured to ask how long have you been there. She informed me 18 years, and that the business had been there for 25 years. She said can I ask who you are. I told her that I was a person who they were collecting money from. She immediately transfer me to another person that did not pick up the phone. I called the Better Business in SC. They said that they never heard of them. I immediately called the town of where they are located to see if they have a business license, and found out that address pulls a beatuy store that was closed down. I then called the Better Business, adn told me to file a compliant with them, and make sure that I inform them what I would like to do to reslove the complaint. Then told me to place a complaint with the Cusomer affairs. I plan on perform all the acts today. I hope everyone will plan placing the complaint with me.

He gave me this bogus address (405 Corner Square Moncks Corner, SC 29461), well little did he know my family is from their and I had them mapquest it and check it out it's some warehouse, when I informed that I couldn't find such and address he then said "well I don't know what kind of computer you have but I'm looking it at it on google.com. Whatever I've filed a formal complaint with the FCC as well as my state (North Carolina), Attorney Generals office, changed my bank account and got a post office box. These people are crazy!!!!

The only thing they wouldnt do for me was send me paper work. I am in California and they lady who I spoke with is Sydney Roman her extension is x4027, and an interesting point to all this is that I have their account number with Bank of America! I went to BofA and spoke to their branch manager, they told me, of course after the fact, that that company's account is NOT in good standing with their bank. Now if they are wanted in all those other states, then are any of you willing to jump on the band wagon to track any of these idiots?!! Im serious! If you are attempting to assist me with this issue that we have all fell vistom to, please do not hesitate to contact me! I am going to put this website on bookmark and check it frequently as I am seriously upset about having to fork over all that money when I make pennies to try to get by!@

The question is, how the hell did they get a hold of my cell number when the phone line is not even under my name? This one call me (Fatima Calloway) stated that she is from Calloway's Law Firm and that I am being investagated by the state of California. She said, I am a subject in question and that either me or my lawyer contact her office to resolve this matter. Then wish me good luck. This morning she called again and told me the whole reason she called. I had owed money to an online payday loan for $300.00. My checking account got closed and I truely believed that these people had already taken money out of my account, so I didn't think anything of it. Now, 2 yrs. later this law firm is trying to tell me that writing a bad check is a misdemeanor. That I could get 12 months in jail. She too, told me to deposit the money into Bank of America or this other place call Aids Cash Express, which I've never heard about. Then before she hung up she told me that the state is going to come and arrest me at my work within the hour. I've talked to a lawyer and he said, they're are a bunch of crooks. Legitimate debt collector does not threaten people with criminal prosecution or impersonate state employees.

So when I called back I asked where she was, I was hastily told some address in SC, but when asked to repeat she said no, I should have it all on file. I told her my lawyer wanted her Bank of America account name and number, and she told me this offer was off the table and my only choice was debit or credit card. I then spoke with my Mother who advised that they had called my mother in May asking for my birthdate, address and phone number. I find this disturbing and very upsetting. I also filed with my state attorneys office and will followup with the Better Business Bureau in the am. Wondering what came of your inquiries?
