The man said it was address verification and said someone had a case against me. He said he couldnt tell me why. But gave me an attourney # for Robert Douglas and David Kline which was 855.769.3960. He also gave me a case # !! 14-01426. This has got to be a scam !! I don't get in trouble or bother ppl. for someone to have a case against me.

I just got the same thing! any answers about it?

Me too! Freak out moment. Where are you guys from, jw if we're in the same area. They called my grandmother, how awful!

They somehow also got the # for my sister! How do they get family numbers, this is super creepy.

I called the number and it sounds fishy. like a bill collector. I got a call from a 248 area code aka Detroit area. I think its a scam.waiting for the so called lawyer to get the case will post more. saying its fraud. and they are going to take me to court . saying since I did not pay tis off its bfraud

I called the courts they told me the only address verfiication  service is via the post office that he knows of. and if you google the lawyers name nothing pops up for them. both

Just google your name and number, any place such as spokeo that shows up, make them remove it.  There are some sites like this that also give relatives names.

Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $50.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.

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.

they by law have to send you a bill first. I never heard of a layer calling and saying pay bill or your going to court. and with this day and age of computers they would not put someone on hold to look up a case. I told them to take me to court. I will tell the judge. I never received a bill. per federal law. etc

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 tried finding the attorney's name, but because I don't know their location, I don't know if is really the attorney that I spoke with.

This is most likely a scam.  There are no attorneys involved.  Someone is trying to extort money from you.  Read and understand Tamianth's Notes.  Also, if they keep bothering you, tell hem you know it's a scam and make a report to the local police or sheriff.

the day I got the call I reported them to the feds and to the state attorney generals office

I just called them the number has been disconnected
