Got a call from this number today looking for someone by my first name. Told them they had the wrong number and hung up. I've got no outstanding debts; no clue who these guys are. Beware.
They enjoy threatening and intimidating individuals by stating they are from the Department of the Treasury (which is illegal). If you call the phone number back and ask what does the company do, they will say "business matters". If you ask them if they are an arm of the government, they will tell you "no".
Recommendation: Make a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission Bureau of Consumer Protection at https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/
This company is wrongfully stating they represent the US government.
thank you so very much! this just happened to me an hour ago. they had all my information from 5 years ago - employer, social security, date of birth, but had my address wrong. i asked why is address wrong - she replied it was in dfas and i knew something was wrong. Then I was told why dont you put the payment on your credit card - it has credit still on it or my wages would be garnished. I asked to call back. i am so very gretful
Actually they are one of the debt collection companies listed on the website of either the SBA or the Department of Treasury. I know this as I owe a defaulted SBA loan and looked it up to see if there were any other way to deal with my bill than through a company called CBE [also listed as a collector for government]. It's too bad you had such a bad experience - my experience with PCR was good- though theirs with me, not so great since they are having to call me and I am looking up their number on the net instead of answering. [ just a little behind] Don at CBE so difficult and rude, everyone at PCR I have spoken with- so polite.
