These scammers are passing themselves off as & misrepresenting themselves as being from an actual legitimate law firm, & they sound pretty sophisticated & convincing -- until you do your research. We received a message yesterday coming in from phone number 844-425-5299 -- The message was a veiled threat stating that they were calling about an urgent legal matter, had made numerous attempts to contact us, and they left a file number & phone number to call (855-572-4347). When we called the number back, we were told that we were contacting "The Law Firm Of Karl Frankovitch" located in Buffalo NY. An "attorney" named "Sebastian Silver" told us about some outstanding debt from 2009 that needed to be resolved, otherwise further legal action & filing of charges would occur. We insisted on receiving some type of documentation in the mail & asked for a direct phone number, trying to obtain as much info as possible. He kept deflecting to sending an e-mail, but we insisted on a form letter. We were given a direct contact number of 716-332-6424 (which is the old number of an defunct accounting firm called Greenberg, Taglienti, & Associates in Kenmore NY), and "Sebastian" also gave us a mailing address of 3221 Southwestern Blvd., Jamestown NY (which is actually a UPS Store -- always a red flag). We called the REAL Law Firm Of Karl Frankovitch @ 716-382-7916 and advised them about these scammers using their good name in vain, & they are going to investigate accordingly. If you get a call or message, call the real law office directly & let them know, as they are gathering as much evidence as possible on these crooks!!!!
This is an automated call but it does not sound like a robot. I received a message from a woman who made it sound serious that I call back. The message cut off right before she said to reference file number. You can find a similar audio recording of the same message at https://www.nomorobo.com/lookup/855-572-4347 these people should be ashamed of themselves!
