Kept getting calls from some Indian from out of the country and he keeps leaving this message on my voice mail. "We would like you or your legal representative to call us back so we can discuss 3 lawsuits that are about to be filed against your social security number." The caller says he's Matt White, obviously a fictitious name. I knew it was a scam and told the guy so when I called back.
But I reached my boiling point with these calls when the guy calls my office and tells them I;m going to have lawsuits against me. Fortunately, the woman who answered the phone knew that it was totally illegal for someone to give out this information and told the person exactly that. He said she could call the F.C.C. if she didn't like it.
When I told a friend of mine about it, he said that one of the TV stations had an expose on this scam and that they tried to get money from you saying you had some lawsuits against you that they could clear up before they get filed. I don't know what kind of person would fall for that, but it sure wasn't going to be me.
