Tried to scam money for an apparent delinquent online loan

As with report filed by Lisa in Toms River, NJ filed on 8/13/08, I received the same phone call from a foreign gentleman named "Kevin Johnson" claiming potential criminal charges if I didn't immediately pay back a $390 loan. He had access to my bank account information and ss#. When asked for more specifcs on the loan and company they represented, he refused to give the information. He continued to read an obvious script referring to my unwillingness to cooperate and that further legal action would be taken. He was very abrasive in his tone and refused to allow me any questions about the account. When I stated, I wouldn't provide any more details until given the specifics on the account and company, he said I would be arrested. I did manage to get a return phone # out of him @ 904-239-3968 and a file # of 81062, but no more details. Upon refusing to give anymore information, I was hung up on by Mr. Johnson.

I then received a 2nd call with 5 minutes from a female, named "Tiffany Brown." Her tone was more abusive and confrontational than Mr. Johnson. When I stated that I wanted to refer the matter to my attorney for review, she stated my attorney couldn't help me with this case and proceeded to try and get me to commit to repayment over the phone with a credit card or money wire transfer. I again refused until more information was given, but Ms. Brown was uncooperative in disclosing any more details. Needless to say, the whole conversation and tone struck me as fraudulent from the onset.
