Cash Advance USA - scam. saying I owe money

I keep getting phone calls from people with Indian accents, claiming to be from the US Dept of Justice. They keep saying that a Lawsuit has been brought against me for non-payment of a loan. I do not have any loans. They have all my personal information as well as my personal references. They keep calling me as well as my friends, claiming that I owe money. When asked to provide paperwork, there isn’t any to provide. HUH? They just keep asking that I wire the payment to some off the wall numbers to clear everything up. They are even stating ( I’m sure to scare people) that they are going to contact your employers. So they are harassing people on their jobs. The numbers I keep getting call from are coming across my caller ID as incomplete numbers.
I do know that I so not owe anyone. I can only believe that someone’s files have been hacked big time. I have flagged my credit reports and also have contacted my bank to change my acct info. There has to be a way to get a hold of these people and stop them. I just hope that they have not found anyone who believes this and actually send money.

I was so scared and nervous when I received the call from these jerks. They told me the police would be at my job in 15 minutes if I didn't pay them the money I owe. I'm looking puzzled like wtf how could I owe you money I never borrowed. He said look we can settle this now or in court. He said well just go ahead and turn yourself in at the nearest jail. I asked him what could I do and he said just send the 453 that you owe and everything would be settled. I said okay and he asked how long would it take, I told him about 15 minutes. I called the local police dept and they told me to not worry these ppl had been harassing other people and they are bogus. The police called the number back and they asked who was this and he said who are you, the police told him that it was the police this fool asked well what's your badge #. The police told him the number was being traced and they would be arrested. The guy called me back and said "Oh you're trying to threaten me" I told him no you threaten me hell. Don't keep calling me and he eventually stopped. He also called my job and said I had used the company computer to do fraudulent activity to get me fired, luckily my supervisor knew I rarely use the computer at work and you have to put a code in for the internet anyway. I am glad this is over because I was going to send them the money too.

Next time you hear from them, let them know from them moment you identify yourself that you are recording the phone call, also let them know any other communications & all phone numbers from this point on will also be recorded because you feel threatened and that you feel you are being scammed and until they can provide you with legal documents proving who they are and what they are trying to collect you will not send them any money per the FBI . (this is what I was told to do by the FBI) This deters alot of these scammers from calling over and over. Get a cheap recording device and use it! Call your local police and file a police report as well as the 3 major credit bureaus and the social security department cause they have your numbers. The FBI website also has an email link on their site to identity theif crimes. You can email them as well. This is a classic scam where you have sent your information online to someone and these people have it.WHATEVER YOU DO, DONT SEND THEM A PENNY!
