Who called from 3073246693

left message to call another number

They are a collection - attorneys office out of Wyoming. They are collecting on bad debts. Ans have been nice to remove numbers when they no longer belong to who they are looking for. If you call the 800 number they leave during there normal hours you can talk to a live person.

The calls are from CCI, a collection agency registered in Wyoming (although using a Fort Collins, Colo. mailing address) ???  Linda Russell is listed as the owner, and the calls from 307-324-6693, although a Rawlins, Wyo. prefix, trace back to an apparent CCI employee, Angela Edwards of Casper.

Public records also list email addresses of [email protected] and [email protected] for Linda and [email protected] for Angela. Their mailing address is P.O. Box 4000, Rawlins, WY  82301.

It's true that CCI's tactics of using automated dialing to contact supposed deadbeats -- and then requesting them to return the call without explaining why -- are sleazy and deceitful, but it appears they are operating barely within the law.

The best way to stop an outfit like CCI from repeatedly calling is to notify them (in writing) to stop doing so. Instead, ask them to submit the proof of debt in writing. You are still liable for paying outstanding amounts, but at least you will have the opportunity to review the information for accuracy.

Be aware that Wyoming law (W.S. 33-11-101...116) requires that if the first contact from a collection agency is made by phone, the agency must send you a written notice with the pertinent information about the supposed debt.

A man called my husband's cell phone.  He didn't ask for any person in particular.  When my husband said hello, the man said he was calling from a "Mack Dealer".  My husband was confused, and said "I don't know what you're talking about."  Then the man said "Maybe I got the wrong number.", and he hung up.

When I Googled the number, which looked like it was from long distance, I came up with this website and other complaints.  Now I see it's a collection agency, but I don't understand why they're calling my husband's cell phone, when we have no accounts in collection.  Also, why did the man say he was calling from a "Mack Dealer"?  

My husband's had his cell phone and the same number for three years now, and this is the first time he's gotten a call from this number (307) 324-6693.  Because of someone else's comment, now I have their address.  

So if they call again, I will write them a letter to ask them to refrain from calling our cell phone.  Besides being annoying, it uses up our minutes, which are NOT unlimited.  So these calls cost us money, and it's money we'd rather spend talking to the grandkids on the phone, not some stranger from a collection agency who has us confused for someone else.

CCI is a pretty good collection agency. In fact, if you answer the phone when they call, or return the call and talk to them it can be sorted out. Often times collection agency are just doing a verification of information, and they have old or incorrect information- if you know you've not been handed over to collections, it will take all of two minutes to get your number removed from their system.  

The comment about barely functioning with the law is crap- CCI is one of the better collection agencies, and the call  back practice allows them to update their information, and save their employees from getting yelled at (for doing their jobs- let's all try to remember that they are just doing their jobs, and they are not trying to make anyone's life difficult, or calling with malice).
