This collection agency should be sued by everyone possible for constant harrassment! They are not following proper standards set forth in the Fair Debt Collection Act. We have rights too!
Got a call from this number and it was a guy named carlos, he stated he was from ACA recovery. I told him he had no right to call me on my job and that I knew the collections laws. and he said whatever you think you know is wrong. So I told him not to call me on my job and hung up.

I got a call from a man with a heavy accent. He said he is Officer Jack Daniels and he needs to speak to me regarding an important legal matter. When I asked what it was he recited a case number and asked if I would agree to pay the $12,143.25 by credit card or check by phone. He couldn't tell me the nature of the debt, and when I asked him to verify the debt he said he needed my SS number to look it up. Does anybody really fall for these scams?
Same number, said he was with a collection agency and had a bill to collect. They had called before and I reported then to the AZ Attorney Generals office, who responded they sent my complaint to the NJ Attorney Generals office. Told him I did not have any outstanding debts with anyone and he offered to send me a copy of the bill. (I had them fax that the first time and the company name on the bill does not exist). He said he could play me a recording of what had been ordered out of curiosity to see what happened. The line was silent for about 40 seconds then the call hug up. They never gave a name during the phone call but said they were a collection agency. The invoice they sent the previous time identified them as ACA Recovery. So this # just tries to scam people and make them think they have debts that do not really exist. I wish people like this would use their creative energies in a legitimate way, they might actually be able to accomplish something worthwhile rather than scamming innocent people. Don't give them any information.
They called my work phone 6 times in less than an hour. Only left one message claiming to be Ms. King from the law office of Norman Kalina stating that I needed to return her call ASAP as it was an important legal matter. Funny thing is that she has called and left numerous messages stating that I had until end day to contact her or it would be sent in for legal action. I have answered a call from this number and it was an entirely different person claiming the same thing but the amounts and creditors names were different. Never have they stated that they are from ACA Recovery, I would have not known that without the web search on the phone number.
I have also had a call from 201-670-8851 Mrs. Lee apparently works for the Law office Charles Law Office....same claims as Ms. King and with the same threat. And when searching that number on the web guess what they are the same company "ACA Recovery" Completely illegal to represent themselves as from law offices when they are not. And to make repeated calls in the same day. They alternate between my cell & work number all day long. Today I had 13 phone calls to both my cell and work number(not counting the ones I may have missed when away from my desk) Only have1 message left on my work phone from Ms. King today and 1 message from Mrs. Lee on my cell. Out of 13 calls from either 201-336-1026 & 201-670-8851 - 2 messages left is considered harassment.
