Who's number is this

I got a call from them. They are scammers. Harassers. They will threaten to send the police to you. They supposed are a fraud of investigations. They change their number numerous times.

I received a voicemail from them referencing a case number and asked to call them back. I called the contact person (he wasnt available), so I gave the admin the case number, then she hung up.

I got a call from fraud investigation Ron Woods threatening me about a 2007 old debt that was supposedly in my name. I tried to remain calm to get as much info from him as possible. First of all if he was a investigator why are you asking for my address when your the law, he told me my ss# was xxx xxx xxxx WRONG but I kept the conversation going. But every time I ask him questions he would short talk me and demand I pay $700 by money gram no later than noon that day or I would be arrested asap. My sister works at the police department she and her colleague did some research seems to be a scam. Please don't send this person or people any money.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, is warning consumers to be on the alert for scam artists posing as debt collectors. It may be hard to tell the difference between a legitimate debt collector and a fake one. Sometimes a fake collector may even have some of your personal information, like a bank account number. A caller may be a fake debt collector if he:

•is seeking payment on a debt for a loan you do not recognize;
•refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number;
•asks you for personal financial or sensitive information; or
•exerts high pressure to try to scare you into paying, such as threatening to have you arrested or to report you to a law enforcement agency.

If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

•Ask the caller for his name, company, street address, and telephone number. Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." The notice must include the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor you owe, and your rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, do not pay! Paying a fake debt collector will not always make them go away. They may make up another debt to try to get more money from you.•Stop speaking with the caller. If you have the caller's address, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.
•Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know whom you're dealing with. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft – charging your existing credit cards, opening new credit card, checking, or savings accounts, writing fraudulent checks, or taking out loans in your name.
•Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate – but you think the collector may not be – contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.
•Report the call. Contact the FTC and your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers. Many states have their own debt collection laws in addition to the federal FDCPA. Your Attorney General's office can help you determine your rights under your state's law.

I got a call from Ron Woods from the same number using the same tactics. Either pay the debt or be arrested. My sister works at the PD did research found this number to be a scam.
