They've been leaving me the same message about my tax return. Then a new lady called this week talking about important legal documents will be delivered to me so make sure I'm home between noon and 5
These people have contacted a family friend of mine with the same last name (no relation) and my brother-in-law. Said his name was Rick Powers from NARG with an important legal matter. Who the Heck are these guys?

BBB has seen a major increase in collection agencies starting business in the Upstate New York area over the past several years. In an effort to keep consumers informed about which collection agencies are operating in accordance with federal and state law, we have asked for specific information from all collection agencies located in our service area, including proof of licensing, bonding, and or registration required by NY state or other governments where the business is located, as well as proof of licensing required by any state in which the business operates. This collection agency has not responded to our requests. BBB advises consumers to be aware of their rights in regard to collections. This includes New York States law prohibiting any collection agency from collecting on Payday loans in the State of New York. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) outlines prohibited behavior when attempting to collect a debt, and outlines specific rights for consumers. There are penalties for agencies found in violation of the Act. BBB advises consumers to become familiar with their rights under the Act, which can be found at the Federal Trade Commission’s Website at: ftc.gov . Consumers can file with us at bbb.org/complain.

Caller: Informational post
The number my call came from was 508-55:-6842. The number left on answering machine was 888-734-1223. I got a guy telling me I had a credit card from Citi Bank that needed to be settled. His name "Ron Davis". I have never had a credit card from Cjiti Bank. After we hung up, I called the number the call had originally came from. This woman answered and I told her of the message. She connected me to "Ron Davis". When he came on the phone for the 2nd time now, he gave me the same answer and I asked him what this Credit card had to do with my "tax return" or status of" (which was the original message). He tried to tell me the IRS would pay the debt from my tax return. I told him good luck since I don't get tax returns! He hung up. Another scam!
