After investigating several online short term loans (which I did not pursue), I received a threatening phone call from some woman with an accent saying that this was her last phone call to me, that I had to respond by the end of the day to an official investigation that was underway via some attorney's office. If I did not return the phone, they would have me arrested on Monday morning and escorted to court. Charges would be filed against me. They had my place of employment - a school district - and if I did not respond, they would report me to the Massachusetts State Attorney's Office. They knew how to bandy around threats that would scare anyone, including contact with my school employer. No mention of money was left in the voice message. I checked out the number online and found many complaints listed. Phone number was from Anaconda, Montana: 406-559-2491. Phone calls were threatening. My information must have been hacked from a loan site I visited. I reported the phone number to my local police department because of the level of threat. They assured me that any "investigation" would be conducted in writing and that a phone message was not a legal procedure. I think their having personal information about me startled me. I found out their number is a Cellco number dba Verizon; I will report to Verizon tomorrow. morning.
