916-469-8865

Got two calls from this number today and the guy actually left a detailed message.  So, it's just another Indian dude pretending to be from the Attorney General's Office. He asked for a Jason Brown (that's not me) and threatened poor, invisible Jason with "dire consequences" if he didn't return the call immediately. He even quoted the last four digit of poor Jason's Social Security number to prove just how serious he is about  all this. The guy deserves an Oscar nomination for his tough guy cop acting skills..ha!  I've decided to have some fun with him and call him back pretending to be Jason's grandma. So far the line has been busy, but I'm going to keep trying. I figure if I can keep him busy talking to a hard of hearing, frightened old lady for a while, that will keep him from bothering someone else. Wish me luck...this is going to be fun!

Ya.., they keep calling me tooo. I am not going to entertain them. I have better things to do with my time. Let us know what happens with you though. These people are nothing more than another scam.

Got the same call.   A  very heavy Indian accent and he stated his name was attorney Steve Wilson.  LOL!  After I stopped laughing I asked what he wanted.  He said he was with the Sacramento city attorney's office and he went on and on about how the sheriff's were going to come and arrest my son (My son is 13 and was a victim of ID theft, so someone took out a payday loan using my son's information).   I asked him why a city attorney's office would be calling consumers for a debt.  They are attorney's for city workers.  He got upset and said he is sending someone over right now.  I told him I would be waiting.
I also called the Sacramento DA's office (I work for attorney services DT LA and have contacts up there)  I told a colleague in the Sac. DA's office what happened and she is going to do something about them.  The jokes on them.  They should really be careful who they talk to.

I have gotten at least 20 calls in the last 2 he's from this same guy you all are talking about, except mine is from the Ca. State Attorney General's Office ( He's blown my pH up and I've had to turn the ringer down etc. 2-3xs ) I can't keep this up - I' m very sick and need my pH. While he's playing games.

They called me this morning too, so if you go out and apply for a loan online, they steal your information. I called them with the number they gave me and acted dumb. Then acted like i was inquiring about their operation and they hung up. I even called the ATTORNEY GENERAL OFFICE and their call center is closed, funny.

I have been getting calls on my work phone and my cell, he has a heavy indian accent and changes his name every time he calls, I have had enough he threatens me each time

I also had the same call from 916-469-8865.  they threatened arrest etc.they arent very bright.

I was told I can get up to 9 years in jail,they even told my boss that,if it was real they would not have told my boss anything like that , plus they would have sent a letter to my home right.

How do you get this person to stop calling. He has called me 20 times at work and about 30 on my cell.  He wont stop. I contacted my attorney who confirmed its a scam. but how do ya get them to stop!   I filed a federal trade report and on ag.ca.gov and sent an email to one of the attorneys.  I cant keep this up at work. The indian guy has about 4 american names and is an attorney frank morrow.

Well got a call twice today! April 17, 2014.  2nd time I answered this india guy told me something about fraud....prison time...couldn't speak right! Hmmmmm...frank Morris of state of california attorney general office! Fake. Called the actual Attorney General Office - closed! Anyways back to what happen next...the first India guy transfer me to Bert ....another India guy! He said this is the attorney general's office. Your case is going at 9am you will be prosecuted. Well I asked for a call back number ...he sure did 916-469-8865! I called it and it was the heavy accent guy again! He repeated the same thing and he wanted to confirm my DL which he had creepy. I said no and I need more info so I can give it to my attorney. He said well 9 year prison time and good luck!!! Hung up the phone! Wow weird. So I called the Sacramento District Attorney and they said anyone must call the police department to make a report. File claim on their web page. These people need to be stop!  

They are calling me at work asking to confirm personal info and threatning me with prison time .... i know they are fradulant!! They also call my cell phone non stop!!

This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.

They keep calling my work and my cell telling me that I am going to jail and that they are going to press charges.They won't stop calling.

They left a voice message on my phone!

They did? How exciting that must be for you! Did they have anything to say? !!!!

I am getting these calls continuously and they wont stop calling my work.  I have blocked them from my cell. I have filed a ftc and fbi reports. I called the attorney general da office and given them information.  But the calls keep on coming.

Let them know the next time they call your employer has tapped his/her phone lines and the FBI and Department of Homeland Security is monitoring the calls. Be sure and let your employer know you are being targeted by overseas criminal extortionists. Print off this thread and give it to them if you need to.

916-469-8865 - Left me a voicemail this morning at 8:30am PT identifying himself as "Simon West"

Very thick Indian accent to the point of not being able to pronounce my name. He said he was from the State Attorney's office and that there was illegal activity taking place with my social security number. He stated the last four digits of my social (scary!) and told me that it was urgent that either myself or my attorney call back immediately. He said if I did not call him back today that I he would retain an attorney...which makes no sense if he is calling from the state attorney's office. He then said if I didn't call back all he could do was wish me luck with my future endeavors. I blocked the number on my iPhone as he called repeatedly this morning. For sure a scam based on all of these comments

Yea I got the same message this morning on my cell phone. texted him back and said go to hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry!!! but they are so stupid, this Is my last chance, A guys with deep Indian Accent Albert was his name. I turned it over to my attorney of record. I work for the Federal Government. Its a scam.

They claim they're calling from an attorneys office trying prosecute you.
