We have been getting calls from this same number. Very vulgar and offensive. I've talked to many government agencies, phone company and local police to try and find away to get this caller to stop. Apparently there is no way to stop the caller because they are originating from outside our calling area. Would welcome if anyone has any ideas. The most confusing thing is the caller doesn't even say what he wants. There is no apparent motive and the expense of the call is not incurred by us. Very confusing.
I too got numerous phone calls from this # that were rude threating and harassing. They also did scare me at 1st stating that I owed 792 dollars and if I did not pay they were going to come get me and my supervisor and take us to the sheriffs office. When I asked what debt it was and if they could send me a statement of whst I owe they stated they could do that after they get a pymt. I actually went to make state police to see what this was and they listened to the messages and started to laugh. They said that I did the right thing not paying and if someone did show at my house to call them bcuz they were not legit. I also gave them the numbers they were calling from and haven't heard from them since. SO please do not pay them especially with any checking or banking acct info bcuz who knows what they could do with it. Oh the funny thing is the callers name was alex booth robert jones supervisor.

I have received NUMEROUS THREATENING phone calls from this phone number at my work & cell phone. They claim to be a "collection" agency but when I ask for the name of their agency or what they are "collecting" they will NOT tell me. They have actually cursed out the receptionist at my job. Thankfully my boss is very understanding. I work with Judges and went to one on this. He told me these people were NOT ligit. That they had to provide what they are "collecting". I figured out the "debt" & took care of it with the company themselves. The Copnay stated that this is probably a 4th party who bought my info & no I do NOT pay them. They tried to say they were with a criminal division too when my boss would NOT put them through to me. Clark Howard even reported on these new scams. They are buying any past debt/collections & calling people to collect the debt plus a HUGE fee. They wanted $1095 when in fact the bill was ONLY for $354. CROOKS. PLAIN & SIMPLE. And although the call is a CALIFORNIA number they are in INDIA. SO BEWARE of these horrible bottom feeders. If you owe any debt/collections call the COMPANY & deal with the COMPANY not these people. A collection agency will work with you to pay off your debt. They want to be paid. These idiots would not even do that. They will even ask for a pre paid debit/visa card. DO NOT DO IT. DO NOT PAY THEM. IGNORE THEM. You have a right to what they are "collecting" on. These supposed human beings wouldn't do that.
