A man with an Indian accent calls my cell and my husbands cell and claims that my husband owes money for a payday loan that he took out and never repaid. This is untrue and I have no idea where this man got our information from. He calls and leaves dozens of messages and says that we need to send money immediately because this case is time sensitive and of an "urgent matter". He can provide no information, he claims, about the case over the phone and claims that he sends things to us through email to document this debt...but we have received nothing. He calls himself an "officer" from the Department of Financial Investigations. I looked up the number and it is a cell phone from Manhattan, NY...or at least that's what it is listed as on the web. The number he uses is [protected]. We have told this man many times to stop calling and he continues to call daily and demand money and threaten us with law suits and jail! Someone needs to do something about these creeps!
Company Business Name: Department of Financial Investigations
Country of complaint: United States
Address: New York, New York
Phone: 347-416-5175
There is NO such business known as Dept of Financial Investigations. This is just a scare tactic to get you to part with your money. These calls are coming from India. Don't fall for Ali-Bobbas crap. These turkeys are just counting on you being scared of a red mark on your credit score. Anyone with enough know how on computers can find out any information on anyone on the internet. The next time he calls, just blow a whistle as loud as you can into the phone, and continue doing this everytime he calls. It might get these liars to stop.
I just got a call this morning 12/2/2011 telling me he is from the Department of Financial Investigation and I have a loan that I took out 3 months ago from cashnet.com for $325.00 and I have not paid and I need to pay or Im going to Jail and court. I told him I never took a loan out and all he keeps saying is pay or go to court. The number he gave me is [protected] and said his name is Walter Jones. He was telling me they sent emails etc... and there is no emails.
i just got a call this morning 12/6/2011 from a guy with an indian accent proclaiming i took out a loan from cash advance usa I ADVISED HIM I NEVER took out any type of loan and he told me to pay or im going to court and possibly going to jail..i asked to speak to a supervisor he said there isnt one only i can speak with him he called me from this number...[protected]...he proclaims i owe so much money and he says he sent out information on this matter and claims himself as officer brown..i had my husband call this man when i got home from work and he didnt get any further than i did...
Received a phone call this morning @ 8:04 am. The man stated his name was John Marsh and was with the Financial Investigations Department. He had the last four digits of my SS# and stated that if I did not call him back he would be forced to upload the lawsuit into a "courtroom". He had an accent, and gave me the phone # [protected] to contact him. I called the number and it was dead air and then a busy signal. This is very frustrating, he said something about an internet loan which I have never applied for. Do I need to contact the local police and file a complaint? Help me!

You should just send a cehck in the mail made out to "Cash" and sign it, leave the amount blank - don't put a name or address on the envelope
thanks

its a scam to get your info
yes, report it. it's a scammer trying to get your money by making you think there is some lawsuit against you when there isn't.
anyone helped you out with this?
did you find out anything out about this?
I had a call today from a Leon Cruz, the number they called from is [protected] and said he is from the Department of Financial Fraud. When I called the number back Dan Rogers, the supervisor got on the line and told me that I need to get my lawyer to call him to get this matter settled. These people call from so many different numbers and give so many names. I told him that I did not take the loan and not repaying anything without hard copy proof. When you ask for proof they get defensive and say, you went on the internet and took the loan. I told Dan Rogers, well I dont pay for anything without hard copy proof. He hung up on me.
I got as many calls as 6 this morning from [protected], an India speaking woman claiming to be from the Department of Financial Fraud regarding a legal matter from one of my very dear friends. Said this is a fraud investigation regarding my friend and that I will be involved because she gave my name as a reference. Said they are about to file a case against her because she is involved in Financial Fraud. I finally had to hang up on her and then she called back and left a message on my cell answering machine and gave a call back number as:
[protected]. I believe this call also involves a payday loan that was indeed repaid. Sounds like a scam to me.
My husband just got multiple calls from this number from LA [protected] and from Miami [protected]. They say he owes money for some kind of payday loan which is not true, second they claim that they are sending out a hard copy of the summons from Los Angeles Ca in three days which i know they cant file on him in that state since we live in VA they have to file in VA. Then they started calling my husbands job threatening them so i have no idea how to get them to stop. I know it fraud but they need to leave us alone.
I just got a call from a officer from the department of financial investigations. He left me a voicemail stating it was urgent to call him back. The number came from Buffalo, NY. He had an accent.
Sorry I forgot to leave number. [protected]. This is some scam...right?
