I recieved a message from "kevin" (he had a middle eastern accent and could even say my very easy name correctly...) that I needed to call him for a very serious legal matter from The Dept of Law and Investigation. He said it is time sensitive and I had to call by today or it was not his problem anymore and he would not be able to help me. I called the number he left from a blocked phone and it just rand and rang and rang, Then I tried back a bit later and finally another middle eastern man answered named Henry Jones and he just said hello and I had to ask several times who I was speaking to and what company before I got an answer. He wanted my name and I wouldn't give it to him until he told me what they called me for and I gave him my phone number, when I did this he asked if I knew emily... And this is my best friend and I of course siad yes and then he said the case was agaisnt her and I told him the message said my name and that it was against me and she doesn't even or has ever lived here, he then back tracked and said she used me as a reference and I was resposible also. (hmm even though Im a reference not a co-applicant or something?) I asked for things in writing or a website and he'd answer by going on about law enforcemtn and it was going to be out of his hands if this loan was not paid today... I finally let him know I looked him up online and there are tons of scam reports amd he paused then said there is another company using their name to commit fraud and he assured me he was with the Federal Government. I said I need something in writing and now he said I must speak with Emily and to pass the message and he would take my name off the collection list...
So it's a scam...
