Reply to stefystef - they have called my law firm where I work NUMEROUS times and have blown up my phone over the past two days at least 15x.  I'm reporting them as well and thank everyone for your posts as this could have gone to my administrator and I, like Stef, CANNOT lose my job or anyone that messes it.  The last call just as I was writing I answered and simply stated "THIS IS NOW HARRASSMENT, YOU HAVE BEEN REPORTED AND DO NOT CALL AGAIN".  My co-worker said NEVER to answer Yes or No or talk because they cut tape you and make it sound like you are agreeing or saying things that you did not.  DO NOT COMMUNICATE was the best advice I received but take logs of how many times they call, what times and let's all report this.  I'm about to the Attorney General or the other link someone posted.  I'm not only furious but its embarrassing having to try and explain this to the Chief Operating Officer of a very prestigious law firm!!!

Also, their threat with a "Summons" and garnishment is total BS and cannot happen.  The Sheriff's office does not call you ahead of time to tell you are getting sued and your wages will be garnished!

I just got the same threatening phone call an hour ago and contacted the police. They would not tell me anything either, other than that they were going to be going to my job and my home. They are nothing but a bunch of thugs who think they are so tough. Oh and they have another number 732-228-4545....yeah, and they said there were multiple allegations against me...i have the thug's name who screamed and threatened me...I did contact the police and they took a report.

Got a call this morning from 732-228-4545, stating that they had my SS  #, that I had "multiple allegations" against me, and that I would be served with a summons either at my job or my home. This was from some group called the NAR..allegedly had info that was given to the County Clerk(false, because I called the Courthouse) and then I called the police and filed a report about harassment, threats, and this  is a scam. Person's name is Hailey Gary...probably false, and she proceeded to scream, I hung up,and then she proceeded to leave the above threat on my voicemail about coming to my job and/or home to serve me. For what, I don't know, but this group, and these people need to stop and be put out of business for their intimidation tactics.

I just got a scam artist from+1 813-540-4518 about a payday loan done online in 2010. Yeah right like id pay those APR's!! These people must think your an idiot when they say do this or else. I say prove it mutha or else your getting sued!

Lmao....what a [***]! Yes you Samantha bumbaclot....sp?

Threats of jail time, harassment etc goes against the Fair Debt Collection Act. Yes we are victims of identity theft & NAR is a scam. We had never applied for payday loans. They are NOT a legitimate debt collection company. Legit companies follow the law that includes bankruptcy laws.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has confirmed they are an overseas scam. That is proof enough for me. Enough said.

Consumer Financial protection bureau 1 855 411 2372

Scam!!!!! Threatened to summon me at my job for an unpaid payday loan. Never had a payday loan. Scam!!!!! They called from a local number

Same thing happened to me. Howevee, when I returned the phone call it went to a voicemail that was intercepted by a message telling me this was a scam.  Very strange. They called me back and began to threaten me. They got veey defensive when I told them I knew they were scammers.  They said they were going to serve me at work.  I told them to please do.  It's frustrating because I have already been scammed this same way before.  They wouldn't provide me anything in writing but said if I didn't pay today, they would summon me to court.  We shall see.

This company called me several times as well from a local number 207-466-0861 and asked me to return the call by calling 1-888-855-0361. I wasn't going to return the call because I thought it may be a scam because I knew I didn't have any outstanding loans but after multiple calls to my home, cell and family I decided to call back. I tried explaining that I didn't have any outstanding loans and I was worried about id theft and the man yelled at me, told me to get a good lawyer and hung up on me. I called back and spoke to a women and ended in the same way. I called a third time, not giving any info just asking for the name of their company and the woman gave me the name. I then received a call from another woman who immediately started threatening me and when I told her I knew she was a scammer, she threatened to have me arrested.

......and I did contact my local police and that State of Maine Attorney Generals Office, please do so if you receive any calls from these terrible scam artists! I don't know how they sleep at night!

NAR --

Most likely part of the Global Scam out of Jamaica or perhaps the Island of Nevis. Or Nassau in the Bahamas.  Clearly an off-shore scamming group.  Callers generally have Caribbean accents.
They also call from many other numbers see: 251-301-9797, 800notes.  This is a Jamaican or Nevis or Nassau or Trinidad (I'm pretty sure) offshore group.
They also go by many different names:
ACI
ACS
ARA
Atlantic
Atlantic Group
Atlantic Processing
Capital Indemnity Solutions
Capital Law
Capital Risk
Capital Services,
First Recovery,
First Recovery Associates
GDS

Spotlight
United Restitution Group,
They may use other  CIDs and phony creditors as well.  Their signature phrase when you ask them where they are located is to say: "they are in Miami but have 48 locations in the US".  Right.   Lately they’ve been adding the phrase “except Hawaii and Alaska.  Just to show you they now have learned some geography.  These people are nothing more than   overseas scammers.  Ignore these people and block their calls.
Report them:  See:  http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
My own research suggests that they are the remnants of
CWB Services, LLC.  (Cutter Group)
2114 Central Avenue
Kansas City, MO 64110
Sued by the FTC in 2013.  Can’t operate in the US, so they used their Jamaican or Nevis subsidiaries to carry on the scam.  Which accounts for the US – like scamming operations they engage in.
