I just received a phone call at my work number from a man who had an accent (indian-like) identifying himself as Officer Ben Parks. He started to tell me that there were 3 crimanal charges (Case# FL7520186) that were going to be filed against me for banking violation and collector of check fraud. He started saying that I owed money to a Cash Advance company for a deposit they made into my account and that I have not paid it back. FIRST of all, I have not received any loans or advances from any company and second of all the bank account information he gave me was on an account that I closed about 2 months ago because I was online looking for a loan and i came across a company which seemed alittle iffy but it was too late when I realized I had put alot of my info, so I immediately got off the internet and went to my bank and closed my account and put fraud alerts on all 3 credit bureaus.
I told this "officer" that I have never gotten a cash advance nor was money ever deposited into my account. I told him that this was obviously a fraud as he proceeded to threaten me that I was going to be charged. I told him to go ahead and do what he's got to do, and that I was the one that was going to bring a case against him for fraud. He hung up. I called the number back that he provided initially (904-345-0796 which is an unpublished number out of Jacksonville) and no-one answered but an machine stating you can't leave any messages. Obviously these are scammers trying to scare people into paying money they dont even owe!!! I will continue to look further into this and try to see if I can get this scammers in real trouble!!

These scammers just don't quit...
AUTHOR: Tracy - (USA)

Unfortunately, this scam still continues... These scammers are usually of Middle Eastern descent, and they operate under different names such as "The Department Of Law and Investigation", "Cashnet", etc. They contact people who have either applied for and/or received a pay day loan or cash advance from a lender on the Internet. These @$$holes use intimidation and threats to try and collect their "money". They give the victim an American sounding name, and they state that they are representing XXX company, and that you (the victim) are being charged with bank fraud, etc. They threaten to have you arrested, fired from your job, all the way up to threatening you with jail time. I'm glad that you had the courage to call their bluff... Unfortunately, some people haven't been as lucky. The authorities and the "powers that be" really need to address this situation; it seems as though these scammers are becoming more prevalent. Also, they seem to becoming more bold in their collection attempts. Unreal! Again, kudos to you for standing up for yourself. Thank you...

Same old sh*, new names
AUTHOR: Jim - (U.S.A.)

These a*holes are calling from Pakistan using fake American sounding names, their scam is To scare you into paying a Loan that doesn't exist.
Usually by saying they're Officer(Fake American Name) Obvious clue, the heavy accent, hard to understand, or cannot understand this (American Name) Officer?
Their Theft is to scare you by threats like "Have the police at your door" or "Warrant has been signed" or "You're in big trouble", "You've committed BANK FRAUD" or similar lies.
They usually say they're from "The Department of LAW and Investigation" or similar scary FAKE NAMES (recently they used United Nations Law Division, and ACS Law division, and even more recently 1st IRS Legal Dept)
You're NOT in trouble, they're just good Liars,
Pay them NOTHING, they're only Slimy thieves. Recently they've been changing names at the speed of light, and they use a telephone relay so they look like they're calling in America, they're NOT.
This is another name, but the same scammers.
OR IF YOU WANT PROOF THEY'RE THIEVES Tell them to send you verification there's any "Debt" at all, if they start screaming at you, that's proof positive that they're just thieves.
When/if they call again tell them they're just thieves and hang up, they can't arrest you, It's just a scam.
