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.

I keep getting the phone calls and letters also what I did was called the company directly and was told the date my loan was paid off and the amount was less than what these people are saying I owe. People please be aware they are desperate and will say anything to get you to send them your money. We work too hard to just hand it over to a scam artist. What I do now is every phone call that I get from an unfamiliar # I search online 1st. Honestly, the letter looks legit however there are some questionable things like make payment to UCS or himself, make a payment in 10 days or 5 days for a lump sum amount but then on the bottom of the letter it states that I can notify them within 30 days after receiving this letter to dispute the debt...wouldn't that be too late since they are saying they will file suit after 10 days. I mean really it's kind of scary at all the personal information they have on people to pull this off. Just be careful and question everything.
Have never gotten a call from these people yet I get a letter, on March 2, 2015, stating that they have sent numerous letters to my attention. and in addition phone messages were left for me and they have not received any reply. Anything legal looking I save, and I don't have any other letters from this office.
My first clue that this could most likely be a scam was the fact that the letter was on cheaper printer paper then I have in my home printer, and the quality of it was very "high school". The letter when folded had "ink ghost" that is what I call it when they didn't let it dry and the bottom part of the letter has left "ghost" words on another part of the letter.
My second clue was that I have not used a "payday" loan place in over 10 years. I learned my lesson with those. If I don't have the money, I don't need it. I call my creditors and make payment arrangements.
Besides I do actually have "real" letters from "real" lawyers when I did have debt that needed to be settled and they are so much more professional. These people should be ashamed of themselves. Go out and get a real job and stop bullying and stealing from others. Problem is they don't see it as stealing, but that is how criminal minds work, they don't think they are doing anything wrong.
Needless to say I will be calling them tomorrow and letting them know that I know they are scamming people and if I get any more correspondence from them I will be contacting my own lawyer and sueing them for harrassment.
Please don't be taken in by these con artists.
I received a letter from Charles Turner from Ridgewood NJ and he is the lawyer to collect an outstanding debt, I have never taken or been approved for no more than 200.00 and the letter states I owe over a $1000. I tried calling the phone numbers on the letter and got no answer. After reading the reviews
I received a letter from this company w/ Charles I Turner name on it stating that I owe them $160.00. I called the number on the letter to ask why am I getting this letter and what do I owe them for? The customer service lady was very rude-she woudn't answer my questions about the letter: be it now she has not received any info at the time of who she is talking too. She stated that I would put in a disputer and I told her there is no dispute I don't owe any money and then she hung up!. I called back to ask to speak with a manager and she answered again, never getting my info or nothing: she placed me on hold for a little while and came right back to the telephone stating that she is the manager and she lied talking about she listened to the call and I told her to tell Charles I Turner to kiss my you know what !!!!!!!!!!what in the world is going on here. I told her she must have listened to the wrong call I would have never used that kind of language. Liar
