Don't fall for this scam... I'm in the same boat.  At one time or another, you must have applied for a payday loan somewhere on-line.  In short, I don't know which loan company it was, but our information was compromised where all of our personal information was obtained by these losers, and now these guys from middle-east claiming that they're from CIL is calling and harrasing us.  These guys have all of our information; including name, social security number, address, bank account information (including full routing number and account number from the bottom of our check), and our references (typically 2 personal references).  The information they have is the same information we as consumers give out when applying for a payday loan on-line.This scam is well known amongst the authorities including the FTC, FBI, and the local authorities.  Though it's hard to track these guys down (calling us from various hijacked phone numbers and location), authorities are aware and as big as this case is, all we can do is take a preventative approach and look out for ourselves in the interim: Be sure to check your credit report every 3-6 months through annualcreditreport.com to ensure that your identity is not being compromised.  In today's world, identity theft is one of the top 2 cyber crimes in the world and it's getting worse every second... Obtaining similar information these these idiots have of ours is not that hard to obtain anymore.  We've come to a world where institutions that do their best to maintain privacy of their customers/clients is becoming more and more challenging in today's information world.Best of luck, but don't these these idiot scammers scare you, just because they have our information.  By looking out for yourself and keeping tabs on your credit won't guarantee you against identity theft; however, this is one major way to stay atop our personal matters to the best of our abilities.

Received numerous calls @ home and work demanding that I call them on 317-429-1129 from a gentleman that sound foreign that was not fluent in English.  Also they called my daughter harrassing her.  I need someone to investigate these calls asap.When I looked up this number on the Internet - it stated Landline.

They called me today and told me that his name was Steven Johnson (most american name I've ever heard an Indian gentlemen have) and that he was with the CIL division of the US Government (Criminal Investigations and Litigation).  He told me that they had a company that was filing check fraud charges against me (I dont' even have checks attached to my bank account) and that I could either risk going to federal prison or settle it a "different way" which I assume was money.  I hung up on him.  The scary part was that he had ALL of my information.  I mean All of it.  He even verified the last 4 of my checking account number.
