I suggest we all call Chris Cuomo at ABC. He is a good investigator on these kind of scams. Please someone at there who knows who to file a class action lawsuit, lets try to file one IMMEDIATELY. Obviously these people have no heart or soul !!!!!!
Someone just called me from this number and said that they were with a law firm- Goldberg and Maxwell located in NY? When I researched this phone number online, it said that it was tied to a WI location? Doesn't make sense, they would not disclose why they were calling unless I verifed personal information with them such as my ss#; when I told them that I would not disclose or discuss personal information with them unless they told me who and why they were calling; they then threatened me and said that they would submit my case for legal proceedings for failure to cooperate with them. This so called firm also called me from a different phone number about an 1/2 hour to an hour before that, but a different person left their name and phone number. I have never heard of this company, nor do I owe any money to them for any outstanding bills. I tried to research this company online, but I could not find anything located in NY or WI or within the US. Please stop them from calling.
They called me too with same spill. I too tried to research them because I do not owe money. They had my last 4 of my social but I wouldn't give them my full info.
I discussed this call with the MN Department of Commerce; they said once they contact you; they have 5 business days to submit something in writing to you about their claim. This company is not licensed to do business in MN. Don't be alarmed by their threats; no one from NY is going to come after someone in another state for money or sue them; it would cost them more money than it is worth. If they call again, tell them not to call your employer or any other phone numbers on record, just a number that you want them to contact you at. Do not pay any money to them unless you have proof of what you say they owe you. It was scary; I still think about it daily.
I too was contacted by them and I actually got them to send me something in writing but they got upset when I explained I wanted my lawyer to look over the paper. They are a third party collection agency but once again I am in Georgia and they are threatening to come to my place of employment. I did not give them my information but somehow they got my husband cell number as well as my Job number. Whether the debt is valid or not I am not paying them anything. I would rather go to the company the debt is owed to and work with them. All I know is right now I am not happy with their recent contact which was at my employer!!!
