Report RICHARD HELM and TRANSCON DATA CORP. to the NATIONAL CONSUMERS LEAGE FRAUD CENTER and every other fraud report you can. Here is the form for the NCLFC:

This is not a telemarketer. This is not a collection agency. THIS IS A SCAM aimed at getting credit info from you for use in identity theft. Do not call back EVER. You call back and then they call you more and more till you get frustrated and give in.
Go ahead and type "Richard Helm" and "Transcon" into any search engine and see how many cell numbers across the country (and internationally) they are using to fish for people's information.
If they are calling you on your cell phone, go online to your provider's website ad enter the number into your blocked numbers list. Then you'll never get a call from them again. Don't have a list or you have a land line? Call your provider and report the number to them and ask them to block it from your account. Done. No more fake calls from them.
If you have given information to Transcon Data Corp. (which is not a company - its a rented office run by a few thieves) call your credit and/or banking institution right away to change any passwords and to have new cards with new numbers sent to you. Pay nothing. Report everything. Protect your identity.
Got a call from them last week. I think its the same people as listed under 504-567-1234, because this guy left a detailed message also claiming that he had some debt consolidating offer for me. Although this number left me no message, the company listed was Transcon Data on the caller ID.
They have been calling my fiance' repeatedly over the past couple of weeks. He answered today and they said they must have the wrong number, they will take him off the list, and hung up on him before he could question how they got his number or why they were calling about a warranty on a car when all we own are trucks from 1992 and back! I think I'll give the 800 number a try.
