Today, which happens to be my birthday, I received a call from a lady by the name of Janet Grim, from an attorney firm called Crime Monitoring Division. She called from 858-427-6434. She spoke with a heavy accent (not southern) and the 1st thing she did was ask me to verify the last four digits of my ssn#. Then she asked me to verify my email address. Then she proceeded to tell me to collect a debt. Next she transferred me to this gentlemen (with a heavy accent too) who was talking fast; was very rude and tried to threatened. He proceeded to inform me that American Credit Services (ACS) transferred my case to their office and that I received a payday loan in September; gave a date; referenced by bank account and said I need to pay $1,295.97 and if I didn't; then two investigative officers would come to my house on monday morning and to take me to court for an 11:00 am hearing to face a judge. If I didn't pay today, then I would have to pay $5,485.00.
Again, this guy was rude; the background is very noisy and I asked for a case number. I asked him for their number and I got 310-362-4319. My phone battery was low, so I called the above two numbers; both were busy. Then I get a call back from Janet Grim; but this time the number was 941-961-8518. She transferred to the same guy again who now didn't want to talk; but I played like I wanted to pay and they only accept visa & debit card. I told them then I would go to court. I then called back the 310 number and got another gentlemen and I asked for an address. He gave me 600 Little Street, L.A., ca 90017. I looked this up on USPS.com and it was not a recognizable address. THIS IS A SCAM AND IF YOU GET A CALL; DO NOT GIVE THEM A DIME.
