Just letting it be known that there is yet another
person being harrassed by this computer. My story is
as follows... Just a couple nights ago, I get a call from one
of their agents claiming to be a lawyer(despite his poor english and street mobster slang). The conversation starts "Mr. , I got some bad
news. You have a hot check from 1999, and if you
don't pay by noon tommorow you will be criminal
prosecuted with fraud and will go to jail." This scares
the hell out of me as I am a single dad with a 2 year
old baby girl at home. I do remember a bad check from
way back then, but I had thought that my wife at the time had taken care of it, and it did seem wierd to me
that all of the sudden I am informed that it hasn't been taken care of and am expected to pay by 12noon the next day(specially since the call was at about 5pm
PST) I do not have the money! I let this guy know
and assure him that I will pay him in full in 2 weeks
when I can get my paycheck. He tells mes no, says I have till 12noon, and hangs up on me. So my mother
decides to step in and says she'll pay it for me, and
then I can pay her back. She also says to make sure
and get a copy of the check to make sure it's not some
sort of scam as the bad check that I had remembered
from before wasn't written by me, but by my wife who
is now my x-wife. So I call the guy back but nothing
but a run around for an hour or so, and then finally
I am told that he is out of the office. So I call
the next day and talk to him. I let him know that I
can pay in full in a single day, but I do want a
copy of the check so that I can verify their claims.
The guy refuses insisting that i am "playing games
with him"! at this point I am really feeling like it
is a scam, because:
1. If they have a bad check of mine, and i'm willing to pay in full with only a days notice, it is a reasonable request to see a copy of the check to make sure it's legit! If they had the check that they claim they have then they wouldn't have a problem with faxing, emailing me a copy of it with the promise of
prompt payment!
2. The guy just didn't sound like a lawyer! He sounded
more like a brooklyn cop, or some tuff guy gangster.
3. When my father talked to him, he told him that "your
son is writing hot checks all over town!" If i'm not
mistaken, slandering to family and friends over a debt
is against the law, thus it seemed like they weren't
playing by the book.
4. The guy told me at least 10 times, more times than
i can count, that he's "going to be honest with me"
My experience, is that when someone is overly stating
their honesty, it's because they are lying.
So of course I look up "JBC legal" on the internet
and the first things i see is "ripoff, scam, criminals,
extortion" and of course it made me laugh out loud haha Mabye i shouldn't say this next thing, but I will..
After looking that up, I contacted my local FBI office
and let them know what happened. They seemed guinenly
interested and had me fax over to them a bunch of
information about these JBC characters.
NOTE: I only say that part because I assume that if
the FBI wanted me to be quite about it, they would've
told me so, which they didn't. Some questions I have about JBC:
Are they really trademarked "Justa Buncha Criminals" based on an offshore area? Is there really something being done about these clowns? I hear of lawsuits and investigations. Do they really threaten criminal action? Although I
had them threaten me with criminal prosecution and jail, They didn't tell me that they were going to break my thumbs or anything like that. Are they really NOT lawyers? I'm in california, if they sue me in hopes of getting
a default judgement, will it mean that I have to
fly to new york in order to defend myself? P.S. I think the term "leech" is better than trolls
as leeches live by sucking the life out of others
just like these JBC people. Just my opinion.
Or mabye Vampire hehe
