"Arrest Warrant Issued - Legal Case Filed Against You from United States Law Firm Group (USLFG) USA" Scam
Arrest Warrant Issued - Legal Case Filed Against You from United States Law Firm Group (USLFG) USA Scam

The email message below with the subject: "ATTENTION: Arrest Warrant ID-UHGJD 256222/564," which claims that legal actions against the recipients have been started by United States Law Firm Group (USLFG) USA, is a scam. The fake email message was sent by scammers to trick the recipients into sending them money by threatening legal actions. Therefore, recipients of the fake email message should delete and not follow the instructions in it.

It is important that the public take precautions when asked to send money via money transfer services like Western Union and MoneyGram, or Prepaid Debit Card to pay legal services or the government. This is because scammers use those untraceable money transfer services to collect money from their victims. Money sent via those services are not refundable, once the scammers have collected or used it.

The Fake Arrest Warrant and Legal Actions Notification Email Message

From: Attorney.Daniel Watson [mailto: watsonattorneydaniel@ gmail.com]
Sent: Monday, April 11, 2016 8:55 AM
Subject: ATTENTION: Arrest Warrant ID-UHGJD 256222/564

Arrest Warrant ID-UHGJD 256222/564 which will be issued on Wednesday 3 PM

DUE AMOUNT: $ 1081.74

This is Daniel Watson from United States Law Firm Group (USLFG) USA. This e-mail is to notify you that under IC3 (Internet Crime Complaint Center) we have Registered Case against you. We tried to contact you several times but it seems apparent that you have chosen to ignore all our efforts.

After sending the legal notice to your current employer you will be blacklisted from getting any job.

UNITED LEGAL INVESTIGATION BUREAU HAS STATED 3 SERIOUS ALLEGATIONS AGAINST YOU AND THEY ARE:

(1) VIOLATION OF FEDERAL BANKING REGULATION
(2) COLLATERAL CHECK FRAUD
(3) THEFT BY DECEPTION

Now, this means few things for you. If you are under any state probation or payroll we need you to inform your superior or manager what you have done in the past and what would be the consequences once the case has been downloaded and executed in your name.

Through IRS (Internal Revenue Service) your Social security number will be put on hold causing severe damage to your credit history or credit report and your income paychecks will be put on hold.

Our primary job was to notify you about the case before we send you legal document in the mail because once this case gets registered then we won’t be able to help you out of court. Our client is least interested in getting the money at this point as they want to just go ahead and start taking legal actions however we wanted to contact you and give you last chance to resolve this case out of court.

If you want to take care of this out of court then contact us with payment within 48 hours and we will release the Clearance Certificate from the court.

Our intention is not to threat you, it is only an effort from our-side to settle this case outside the court.

IF YOU WANT TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER; DO REVERT US ASAP.

I received several emails from this company for my husband and I have never taken them seriously or sent them any money. What worries me is that this time they sent me an email that had my husband's social security number on it. How did they get it? It really worries me that a scammer has sensitive information like that. Is there anything I can do to protect him?

Your husband may have unknowingly submitted his information on a phishing website that steals personal information.

Educate him about online scams. Tell him never send money or information to anyone before doing his research.

I have received several of these threatening emails from this same firm...or fake firm. The last one was the worst in my opinion. It matches the sample to a tee. I have talked with an attorney who handles cases that involve scams such as this one. For a while I was forwarding any and all correspondence like this one to them. I was also documenting anytime I received a call and from what number. Assuming all of them were connected in some way.

It is unnerving. Even though I know it's a scam and I am being victimized. It is still stressful and sits in the back of my mind, constantly.

I just lost my mother and life is very difficult to deal with. These type of emails and these threats don't help matters. I pray something happens to these people. That somehow they are caught and held responsible.
