Federal Crime Invesitgation Department review: Complaint against my SS# 52

Same thing is happening to me! Even the same phone number..beware he's changed his name to "David Williams" but the heavy accent gives him away! It's comforting to know that I'm not alone but very upsetting to receive these calls!

I was terrified! I thought I was the only one! It's scary to know they have your ss# well they only verify the last four, but still very creepy. They tell you your are facing criminal charges and you will be arrested. His accent really gives him away though. They change there names all the time.

oh my god!i was sooo scared too, i didnt know what was going on! im sooo relieved that someone else has put this complaint up because i thought it was real

Tom Smith keeps calling my job. Same MO..Federal Crime Dept. #[protected]. I told him to stop calling, but he just keeps going. Any Ideas to make him stop? I get in trouble for personal calls.

I jujst started recieving these calls today but the number has changed to [protected] and this time his name is "Jason Williams". I just helped my friend out though this exact same thing about 3 weeks ago and now it's happening to me. These scammers are crazy. When will they stop? Grrrrrr...

I just recieved a call from [protected] Officer Jason Washington. When i told him that his information was mistaken and asked him how he got information he said "what did it just fall out of the sky?" So then i tell him i will get him for harassment if he continues to call and he says "Oh i will keep calling you." I then tell him that i am going to call the police and i tell him to F@*K off and he tells me to "Get lost" Ok his stupid self called me. The funny thing is that when he "Came" to the phone... (I know it was him that anwered the phone on my return call, and said that he had to locate "Officer Washington") he had a VERY strong indian accent. He tried to turn his accent to a "Southern" accent. Who can i call about this?

I was just called at work and my home phone and my cell phone with the same scam. I was really scared thinking that i was going to jail. but the guy wouldn't give me a phone # to the company so i called my local cops to see if it was true if i had a warrant out for my arrest in north carolina ( i live in oregon and never in my life been to south carolina) and i haven't done a payday loan for over 3 years. So my local cop ran my name for all of states for a warrant and told me that it is a scam and what to do. The # that they called me from is [protected] and it's from north carolina. Please everyone be careful and tell everyone that you know.

The same thing has happened to me... Except he changed his name from Officer White to John McCoy, He states that I will be arrested for fraud, get a huge fine... He usually asks for my personal info but I tell him you tell me what my info is since you have it in front of you and than I state that I am going to google the phone number, so he gets really irrate and tells me it is not any of my business what thje address is... I have since just blocked the numbers... So tired of the lazy good for nothing waste of human flesh who prey on vunerable people

yesterday my landlord received the same call for me. i man claiming to be the police dept and they where coming to arrest me for fraud. when he tried to talk to them they threaten him and also told him not to answer the phone so he can leave a message. he did leave one saying he was with the federal crime dept and has a legal action against my ss#
and i will go to jail. he uses different names and you can't understand him. the #[protected] ext883. this happen to me two other times. theses people really scare me . i will be filling bk next week, but that doesn't stop me from being frighten me.

I just received this same phone call you have all mentioned.
It sounded official, but there is a lot of noise in background. He calls himself Officer Justin Miller #[protected] ext 109.
Between his accent & noise in background I had an uneasy feeling. I'm so glad I decide to look into this! Can anyone please tell me how to handle this ? I have never taken out a pay day loan in my life, I'm freaking out, ...

I received a called from a Officer Bill Mayes, Officer Ray Flack, Officer Jim Collins from the FEDERAL CRIMES DEPARTMENT on June 16th, 2011 demanding i pay $2, 036.00 in a payday loan that went into default that i never had. They told me that they have been monitoring my email address and recited to me my drivers license number and told me that if i dont pay up, that i will spend 9 months behind bars, my social security number will be under investigation for 3 years. So, to avoid this action, I gave them my credit card info over the phone and they took $150 out the same day and told me to fax them authorization to draft my account about 6 times for $500 through August 18th and a copy of my drivers license and my credit card info for his files. i contacted a federal attorney friend and he said its a scam and ignore it, but i just lost $150. Learn from it. He asked me if they had a docket number. I told my attorney, no. I asked the OFFICER and he said use this “SECRET I.D. NUMBER” . That’s when the red flag went up. SO, I CHECKED MY BANK ACCOUNT FOR THE DRAFT INFO. THE COMPANY NAME WAS “VCollect”. Yes, a scamming collection agency. I WENT ONLINE LAST NIGHT AND LOOKED THEM UP, AND I FOUND REPORTS WHERE PEOPLE ARE BEING SCAMMED BY THESE PEOPLE. THEY ARE CALLING FROM [protected]. THANKS TO MY GOOD FRIEND ATTORNEY ALEX WATHEN, WHO MADE ME FEEL MORE AT EASE ABOUT THIS, AND GAVE ME COMFORTING LEGAL ADVISE TO PASS ON TO MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

Email me to discuss your options in dealing with them. I have several that will help.

I have over 8 years experience in this field and a working relationship with a law firm who specializes in cases like yours that may have them PAY YOU!

I too received one of these calls from [protected]. They were contacting me as the Human Resource Manager of a facility in reference to an employee. They gave me employees last four of their SS number and told me they were investigating a "serious" crime. Wanted me to contact the employee and have them return the call before there was an arrest made. The caller went by the name of Officer Lisa Murphy and had an Indian accent. Scary that these people not only have SS#, but also contact people's employers with this scam. Can't understand why something can not be done to stop this nonsense!

Hello... These people have been contacting me for months now. I just tell them that I will look up the information and get back to them. I never call them back. They eventually stop calling and bothering me. It is scary how they are able to obtaqin your information that you know that you did not give to these "loan" places they claim they are working for. I have looked up the company's and called them to verify if they have any information on me and that I have taken out a loan and not paid it back. I will post the phone numbers soon. I have them in my desk at work.

These people also been calling my cousin and her bf saying the same things so I took it into my own hands I called these people myself and lied and said I received a voice mail saying I needed to call this number cause I owed a loan company lol I gave them my real name ad phone number at first they was like no sr. We don't seem to have your name in our computer are you sure the msg was for you so I lied and said yes they said Trenidy Duhon in the voice mail. The guy tells me ok hang up call the voice mail and listen to the name of the person that called you can call me back in 2 minutes with his name. I hung up laughing well before 2 minutes was up they done called me back same guy different name saying I needed to pay off this loan or they was gonna send a cop to my house lmfao wow seriously I called them people first to see if it was a scam and set this up on there own ###. I laughed at the guy he got mad and said dumb ### I laughed more he got mad lol I told him if he sends someone to my house I was going to drop my pants and drag my nut sack up and down there face slowly and beat the ### out of them haha he hung up blocked my number and never called me again :-). So yes it is 100% a SCAM! DO NOT FALL FOR IT!

They just called me at work saying the same thing and they called me at work asking for my supervisor and threatening me. WTF? These people are rediculous. By the way they called me from [protected] so they don't just use one number apparently. I hung up on them and they called right back and started threatening me. Give me a break!

I had the same thing just happen to me. It was a guy saying his name was Patrick Miller with the federal crime department and he had 3 counts on me against my SS # and bank account because I did not repay a loan from payday advance. I never got a loan from them! He said if I didn't pay today that it would be turned over to the court and I would face serious legal consequences. I called my local sherriff's department and they told me it was a scam because the federal goverment would call with a court date and information not wanting money. He is still trying to call me and every time he leaves a voicemail he sounds like he is mad at me. I guess so because he is not getting anything from me lol! Also the number calling me is [protected]. For anyone else having this problem please dont fall for it, it is a complete SCAM!

just started receiving calls from [protected] from Jason Williams stating he was from the Federal Crime Division today making threats on my voice mail at home and work. I have not responded to him as I know they are a scam.

This comment is towards mlsmoorman I had the same number [protected] contact me and be very rude and beligerant towards me threatening me with imprisonment. I called the FBI and they said that the email address that they provided me is not a government email. He stated that the whole thing seems like a swcam. I am very scared I am 9 months pregnant and do not want to go to jail. How did you compliant turn out for you?

I have been bothere by these people too.I just got a call from Officer James Brown.It is always soemone with a foreign accent and he now tells me there is a warrant out for my arrest in North Carolina ( I live in VT).They have also called my work and that annoys me.Who should I report this too?

I just recieved a phone call the guy stated that he was from the federal crime department, i cussed his ### smooth out and told him never to call my phone ever again. The same dude called me looking for my friend i told him that this was not her number, so i called the number back and it was just a regular old lady and she said she has not called anyone so they are using other peoples number this is a TRUE SCAM!

I rec'd a call on my cell asking for information on my niece. They said they were the "federal crime department" and there was a very serious complaint, a very serious case regarding my niece, whose name she could not pronounce. I asked what it was about and the woman, who could barely speak english, said, "Just have her call this number." Instead, I called the number back and the phone was answered by someone, this time a man with a heavy ?Indian? accent. I said who are you? He said, "the Federal Crime Department, what extension do you want?" I said, "I don't want any extension, I want your address so I can write a letter to the head of your company." He hung up on me. Phone number 919.275.3329

Yep, they tried to get me too. I have never had this happen but when I got this urgent VM curiosity made me call, cuz I know I haven't passed any bad checks. And low-and-behold after getting off the phone with those creeps I searched and found all of these complaints against this "federal crime investagation dept." When I called them I could bearly understand the "officer" cuz of his heavy indian accent, so I demanded to speak to someone I could understand. They "transfered" me to another heavily indian accented "officer", who I promply told to get me another person who can speak english that I can decipher. I then got "transferred" again to "officer" jamaican accent, at this point I'm saying to myself ( are you kidding me!). I told "officer" jamaican" that I was "officer myrick" and I want him to send me the court filed law suit, he then threaten to send police to my home and have me arrested. I told Him to tell Them to make sure They bring the paper work with them. LOL LOL Next victim BEWARE!

Sign up with the National Do Not Call Registry, after 31 days you can file a complaint with them about the phone calls your getting.Also do any of you ever go onto whocalled.us and typed in the phone number? You may be able to find out who is making these calls and be able to find complaints on there as well from others who are getting these calls? In the meantime I would'nt answer any of the calls from numbers that I dont know.

We were scammed about three weeks ago by a man calling himself Jason Taylor.We are now receiving emails saying they are from the FBI and we are under investigation for tax invasion and money laundering.Today we are getting phone calls from a man calling himself Jack Austin, one minute he is an officer from the federal crime dept. the next minute he is a lawyer! The number he is using is [protected].These people will not STOP!

I have been receiving calls like this for the past month. They have used so many names that I can't remember them all. Today it was from a Sherry Washington claiming she was an officer with the Federal Crime Investigation Dept., and the I had an outstanding loan with a company called Payday Loans and I would be in serious trouble if I did not pay up. Yes, I have taken out payday loans in the past, but never with this company, and it has been at least three years, and never defaulted on one. What is scary, is that they have all of my personal info. I am always checking my bank account to see if it has been hacked. So far it has not been tampered with. These people are calling me at work and at home. The number they leave is [protected]. I am afraid to call it back. Does anybody have any suggestions as far as catching these sand n...rs?

I have received threatening calls from:[protected], [protected], [protected], 0000, UNKNOW#, [protected], [protected], [protected]. These caller's state they are either from: The Federal Crime Dept, Federal Bureau Department, An Attorneys Office, They are an Officer and blah blah blah. So far I am being investigated by the government for an unpaid loan, my mail and e-mail is being monitored, I am going to jail, I will have to pay a fine of 5000.00, the law will be at my house if I don't clear the matter up and arrest me by 11 a.m. I called them back around 4pm and asked where the cops were. I showered, shaved my legs, put makeup and perfume on, but no one showed. I also told them I don't know what country they are calling from but here in America we have what is called DUE PROCESS!

The way i see it these are your options, Just because your phone is ringing does not mean you have to answer it. Or, You Could Call your Phone Company and get your phone number changed to an unlisted, non published number, that would end the phone calls and your problems with these con artists, scammers or whatever they are. You could have your phone service disconnected temporarily and just use your cell phone, Or, you could mess with them and answer your phone Thank You for calling Dominos this is (you can make up any name here) could you please hold, Then go away for the week end or whatever, its their long distance phone call not yours which means they are paying for the call your not. Or you can dial *67 that will block your number and call the phone numbers that are calling yours and see who answers if its not a business the next time they call i would just answer FBI Fraud Investigation Division this is Inspector Gadget.

I work nights so they called my job when I was not even at work and my co-worker took the message for Me and when I arrived at work at 11p I did return the call at [protected] and the voice mail box was full so I couldn't leave a message. I got home at 9am and the called was from an unknown name from [protected] and of course I answered it and the person has an India accent which I could not understand a word he said and had to tell him to slow down Ha Ha Ha, I understood the words, money laundering, case number A6038, and I had to call Officer Scott, I told him "Whatever he is trying to tell Me I need him to write it in English and send Me a letter stating all this accusation that I KNOW is FALSE with a returned address from where ever they are calling Me and mail it to Me since they already have my address Ha Ha Ha then another person got on the phone and tried to intimidate Me by saying it was a court matter and they aren't able to mail Me anything but the court will. I said, "Fine, have the court mail Me that letter and you have a Merry Christmas" and He hung up on Me HA HA HA. Personally I'm not scared of anyone in person or over the phone Ha Ha Ha I KNOW I haven't done anything wrong so why should I be afraid? I will go to court if I have to and I will be my own lawyer LOL I needed a good laugh today LOL

I received a call this morning stating they had a fraud complaint against my SS# so I thought I would research the federal crime department a man stating his name was Officer Jeff Morgan called said I could go to jail up to 9 months and what was weird is I called back gave them a fake Name and asked them the name of the company and they couldn't give me a straight forward. His accent gave him away. I wish we could put a stop to them. the number they gave me was [protected] Be careful.

I just received a phone call from these idiots James Brown [protected]. he was screaming at me i better get a dam good lawyer ect. I called my bank immediately and found out it is a SCAM. Why isn't the Government doing something about this. These idiots have my phone & SS #. I traced the number to Angier North Caro liner...Why isnt something being done about this.?

Just an FYI...you can file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. If you talk to them, collect as much info as you can, although know that most of it is a lie. Then file a complaint on the Federal Trade Commissions website. This is happening to me for a second time. Last time the complaint with the FTC made the calls stop. I just filed again. Last time I called and as soon as I said the name the woman I spoke with knew exactly what I was talking about. The word needs to get out so no one else looses a dime to these people.

Dont Answer Your Phone!

This company called my home today and said they were the Federal Crime Department and my husband was going to arrested and gave this number [protected]. He had to call right away or more charges would be filed. We have not called them back nor will we. These people need to be stopped.

These practices are in total violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. These collection agencies are the bottom feeders of the debt collection industry. When they call tell them that they are in violation of the FDCP and tell them to deal with you in writing through the USPS, preferably certified mail. If they continue to threaten you tell them you have their phone number and will report them to the Federal Trade Commission.
This however will not entirely solve the problem, at some point in time the debt will have to be addressed. Don't try and solve this over the phone. It must be done in writing. for free consultation on how to deal with this call [protected] speak to Victor

I just received the same phone call from an Officer James Stewart of the Federal Crime Dept. the number they are calling from is [protected] ext 335 i intend to use this information given on this website to stop this harrassment. Thank you

I just received a called by an Officer Daniel Stuart [protected] and their accountant Peter Jones with a terrible accent. I did take a $300 loan on line about 2 wks ago and know they are saying I owe 1, 836.00 and they wanted me to pay it right there and then. I said if I had that kind of money I would not have taken up that small loan. They are giving me 2days to settle this and they brought down the fee to 1, 000.00 only if paid by tomorrow 6/15/12. Their treats are that I will be going to be arrested if I don't pay, that they have my address and social security. I told them I work for a law firm and my attorney wants to see my so call case 98527CA and they said no not until that money gets paid. I'm scare and don't know what to do. Any ideas?

I am terrified I just recieved the same call, And It's the same thick foreign accent, Hetold me I was going to be arrested and charged with federal charges. I hope this is a scam because I am really scared of this message I tried to call the number back and it goes straight to a loud ringing noise in my ear and then a foreign man comes onto this voicemail asking me to leave my number and he will call me back. I'm so glad Im not in this alone, I have signed up for an online loan but I never followed through with it. I have dne othing wrong to be recieving calls like this. I really would like someone's opinion on this, What should I do?

Thank you for the information I really appreciate it. I will call the FTC right now and make a complaint.
